| 3Because of changes in data collection procedures, data may not be comparable with figures for years after 1991. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4For 1967 through 1975, Black and White include persons of Hispanic ethnicity. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 5Starting in 2003, Black and White exclude persons of Two or more races. Prior to 2003, respondents could select only one race category, and therefore could not identify as having more than one race. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| NOTE: Status dropouts are 16- to 24-year-olds who are not enrolled in school and who have not completed a high school program, regardless of when they left school. People who have received equivalency credentials, such as the GED, are counted as high school completers. All data except for 1960 are based on October counts. Data are based on sample surveys of the civilian noninstitutionalized population, which excludes persons in the military and persons living in institutions (e.g., prisons or nursing facilities). Prior to 2010, standard errors were computed using generalized variance function methodology rather than the more precise replicate weight methodology used in later years. Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity except where otherwise noted. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
