1Persons in family households, which consist of two or more people who are related by birth, marriage, or adoption and are residing together.
2Refers to the person who owns or rents (maintains) the housing unit.
3Refers to all children in the household who are related to the householder by birth, marriage, or adoption (except a child who is the spouse of the householder).
4Total includes other racial/ethnic groups not shown separately.
5Excludes related children who have ever been married.
6Includes Pacific Islander as well as Asian.
7Includes persons of Hispanic ethnicity, because data for the Black, non-Hispanic and White, non-Hispanic populations are not available for the indicated years.
8The U.S. Census Bureau has been implementing improvements to the income, health insurance, and demographic content of the Current Population Survey, Annual Social and Economic Supplement. Due to changes to the data processing system, which resulted in statistically significant differences in the poverty estimates for Blacks and Whites between the new and legacy processing systems, use caution when comparing data from 2018 onward to those of earlier years for these subgroups. For more information, see https://www.census.gov/newsroom/blogs/research-matters/2019/09/cps-asec.html.
NOTE: For 1960, data were collected in April. For later years, data were collected in March. Data are based on sample surveys of the noninstitutionalized population, which excludes persons living in institutions (e.g., prisons or nursing facilities); data include military personnel who live in households with civilians but exclude those who live in military barracks. Prior to 2005, standard errors were computed using generalized variance function methodology rather than the more precise replicate weight methodology used in later years. Poverty status is determined by the Census Bureau using a set of thresholds for families of different sizes and compositions that are compared with before-tax cash income. For additional information about poverty status, see https://www.census.gov/topics/income-poverty/poverty/guidance/poverty-measures.html. All data in this table are from the Current Population Survey (CPS); poverty estimates may differ from those shown in other tables obtained from the Decennial Census and the American Community Survey (ACS). Caution should be used when comparing 2019, 2020, and 2021 estimates to those of other years due to the impact that the coronavirus pandemic had on interviewing and response rates. For additional information about the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the Current Population Survey data collection, please see https://www2.census.gov/programs-surveys/cps/techdocs/cpsmar23.pdf. Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity except where otherwise noted.
