1. 1990 Census of Population (1990 CP)

2. 1990 Census of Housing (1990 CH)

3. 1990 Census of Population and Housing (1990 CPH)

The types of data and the geographic areas shown in

reports differ from one series to another. In most series,

there is one report for each State, the District of Columbia,

Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands of the United States

(Virgin Islands), plus a United States summary report.

Some series include reports for American Indian and

Alaska Native areas, metropolitan areas, and urbanized

areas. See appendix F for detailed information about the

various report series; additional 1990 census data products such as computer tapes, microfiche, and laser disks;

other related materials; and sources of assistance.

The data from the 1990 census were derived from a

limited number of basic questions asked of the entire

population and about every housing unit (referred to as the

100-percent questions), and from additional questions

asked of a sample of the population and housing units

(referred to as the sample questions). Two primary versions of questionnaires were used: a short form containing

only the 100-percent questions and a long form containing

both the 100-percent questions and the additional sample

questions. Appendix E presents facsimiles of the questionnaire pages and the respondent instructions used to

collect the data included in this report. Appendix F lists the

subjects that are covered by the 100-percent and sample

components of the 1990 census.

Legal provision for this census, which was conducted as

of April 1, 1990, was made in the Act of Congress of

August 31, 1954 (amended August 1957, December 1975,

and October 1976), which is codified in Title 13, United

States Code.

HOW TO FIND GEOGRAPHIC AREAS AND

SUBJECT-MATTER DATA

This report includes a table finding guide to assist the

user in locating those statistical tables that contain the

data that are needed. The table finding guide lists alphabetically, by geographic area, the subjects shown in this

report. To determine which tables in this report show data

for a particular topic, find the subject in the left-hand

column of the table finding guide and then look across the

columns using the headings at the top for the desired type

of geographic area. Below is an example of a table finding

guide.

Tables identified in the table finding guide with a reference letter in parentheses after the table number present

characteristics for racial groups or persons of Hispanic

origin. The tables without reference letters contain data for

the total population only. The table finding guide does not

include cross-classifications of subject-matter items, nor

does it distinguish among tables presenting data for all

persons or housing units and tables presenting data for

subgroups (for example, persons under 18 years or renteroccupied housing units) unless it is necessary to locate the

subject.

Additional information to locate data within specific

reports often is provided in the headnote at the top of the

table finding guide and in the footnotes at the bottom of the

guide.

HOW TO USE THE STATISTICAL TABLES

Parts of a Statistical Table

The census data included in printed reports are arranged

in tables. Each table includes four major parts: (1) heading,

(2) boxhead, (3) stub, and (4) data field.

A typical census report table is illustrated below.

The heading consists of the table number, title, and

headnote. The table number indicates the position of the

table within the report, while the title is a brief statement

indicating the classification, nature, and time reference of

the data presented in the table. The headnote is enclosed

in brackets and is located under the title. It contains

statements that qualify, explain, or provide information

pertaining to the entire table. In some tables showing racial

and Hispanic origin groups, the headnote includes information that data are presented only when certain populationsize criteria (thresholds) are met. (For more information on

thresholds, see the ‘‘User Notes’’ section.)

The boxhead is under the heading. This portion of the

table, which contains the individual column heads or

captions, describes the data in each vertical column. In the

boxhead of many tables, a spanner appears across and

above two or more column heads or across two or more

lower spanners. The purpose of a spanner is to classify or

qualify items below it or separate the table into identifiable

blocks in terms of major aspects of the data.

The stub is located at the left edge of the table. It

includes a listing of line or row captions or descriptions. At

the top of the stub is the stubhead. The stubhead is

considered to be an extension of the table title and usually

shows generic geographic area designations and restrictions.

In the stub, several features are used to help the user

better understand the contents of the table. Usually, a

block of data lines is preceded by a sidehead. The

sidehead, similar to a spanner, describes and classifies the

stub entries following it. The use of indentation in a stub

indicates the relationship of one data line to another.

Indented data lines represent subcategories that in most

instances, sum to a total. Occasionally in tables, it is

desirable to show one or more single-line subcategories

that do not sum to the total. The unit of measure, such as

dollars, is shown when it is not clear from the general

wording of the data line.

The data field is that part of the table that contains the

data. It extends from the bottom of the boxhead to the

bottom of the table and from the right of the stub to the

right-hand edge of the page.

Both geographic and subject-matter terms appear in

tables. It is important to read the definitions of the terms

used in the tables because census terms often are defined

in special ways that reflect the manner in which the

questions were asked and the data were tabulated. Definitions of geographic terms are provided in appendix A.

Subject-matter terms are defined in appendix B.

Symbols and Geographic Abbreviations

The following symbols are used in the tables and

explanations of subjects covered in this report:

• A dash ‘‘-’’ represents zero or a percent that rounds to

less than 0.1.

• Three dots ‘‘...’’ mean not applicable.

• (NA) means not available.

I–2 HOW TO USE THIS CENSUS REPORT
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 3 SESS: 41 OUTPUT: Thu Oct 22 08:58:24 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ allexcph23/ usst/ how

• The prefix ‘‘r’’ indicates that the count has been revised

since publication of 1980 reports or that the area was

erroneously omitted or not shown in the correct geographic relationship in the 1980 census reports. This

symbol appears only in the 1990 CPH-2, Population and

Housing Unit Counts reports.

• A dagger ‘‘†’’ next to the name of a geographic area

indicates that there has been a geographic change(s)

(for example, an annexation or detachment, a new

incorporation, or a name change) since the information

published for the 1980 census for that area. This symbol

appears only in the 1990 CPH-2, Population and Housing Unit Counts reports. The geographic change information for the entities in a State is shown in the ‘‘User

Notes’’ section of 1990 CPH-2, Population and Housing

Unit Counts report, for that State. The information for all

States appears in the ‘‘User Notes’’ section of the

technical documentation for Summary Tape Files 1

and 3.

• A plus sign ‘‘+ ’’ or a minus sign ‘‘–’’ following a figure

denotes that the median falls in the initial or terminal

category of an open-ended distribution. (For more information on medians, see the discussion under ‘‘Derived

Measures’’ in appendix B.)

• A minus sign ‘‘–’’ preceding a figure denotes decrease.

The following geographic abbreviations are used in the

tables and explanations of subjects covered in this report:

• A ‘‘(pt.)’’ next to the name of a geographic area in a

hierarchical presentation indicates that the geographic

entity is only partially located in the superior geographic

entity. For example, a ‘‘(pt.)’’ next to a place name in a

county subdivision-place hierarchy indicates that the

place is located in more than one county subdivision.

(Places also may be ‘‘split’’ by county, congressional

district, urban/ rural, metropolitan area, voting district,

and other geographic boundaries, depending on the

presentation.) Other geographic entities also can be‘‘split’’

by a higher-level entity. The exception is a tabulation

block, which is unique within all geographic entities in

census products.

• BG is block group.

• BNA is block numbering area.

• CDP is census designated place.

• CMSA is consolidated metropolitan statistical area.

• MA is metropolitan area.

• MSA is metropolitan statistical area.

• PMSA is primary metropolitan statistical area.

• TDSA is tribal designated statistical area.

• TJSA is tribal jurisdiction statistical area.

• unorg. is unorganized territory.

• VTD is voting district.

Census tables often include derived measures such as

medians, means, percents, and ratios. More detailed information about derived measures is provided in appendix B.

GRAPHICS

Charts, statistical maps, and other graphic summaries

are included in some 1990 census reports. If graphics are

shown in a report, they are presented immediately after the

‘‘User Notes’’ section.

USER NOTES

User notes include corrections, errata, and related

explanatory information. This section appears directly before

the statistical tables in census reports unless graphics are

shown. It presents information about unique characteristics of the report and changes or corrections made too late

to be reflected in the text or tables themselves.

ADDITIONAL DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATIONS OF DATA

GENERAL

User Note 1

Age Reporting—Review of detailed 1990 information

indicated that respondents tended to provide their age as

of the date of completion of the questionnaire, not their

age on April 1, 1990. In addition, there may have been a

tendency for respondents to round up their age if they were

close to having a birthday. It is likely that approximately 10

percent of persons in most age groups are actually 1 year

younger. For most single years of age, the misstatements

are largely offsetting. The problem is most pronounced at

age 0 because persons lost to age 1 may not have been

fully offset by the inclusion of babies born after April 1,

1990, and because there may have been more rounding up

to age 1 to avoid reporting age as 0 years. (Age in

completed months was not collected for infants under

age 1.)

The reporting of age 1 year older than age on April 1,

1990, is likely to have been greater in areas where the

census data were collected later in 1990. The magnitude

of this problem was much less in the three previous

censuses where age was typically derived from respondent data on year of birth and quarter of birth. (For more

information on the design of the age question, see the

discussion on comparability under ‘‘Age’’ in appendix B.)

User Note 2

The user should note that there are limitations to many

of these data. Please refer to the text provided with this

report for further explanations on the limitations of the

data.

User Note 3

The estimated population totals for persons in group

quarters, specifically by group quarters type, that are

based on census sample tabulations may differ from

comparable figures shown in 100-percent tabulations. Such

differences result, in part, from sampling variability which

occurs because information was obtained from a sample

of the population rather than from all persons. Differences

also occur because of nonsampling errors which affect the

100-percent and sample data. Examples of nonsampling

errors include respondent and enumerator errors, processing errors, and nonresponse.

The 100-percent data are the official counts and should

be used as the source for data on group quarters type

when the primary focus is on counts of the population in

group quarters, especially for small areas such as census

tracts/ BNA’s or blocks. When the group quarters population is shown by characteristics covered only on a sample

basis (for example, education, labor force status, income,

etc.), the sample figures should be used within the context

of the sampling variability associated with them.

For more information on the limitations of 100-percent

and sample data for persons in group quarters and the

classification of group quarters type, see appendix B.

Reasons for the differences between 100-percent and

sample totals will be an important focus of post-census

research and evaluation.

User Note 4

Estimated population and housing unit totals based on

tabulations from only the sample questionnaires (sample

tabulations) may differ from the official counts as tabulated

from every census questionnaire (100-percent tabulations).

Such differences result, in part, because the sample

tabulations are based on information from a sample of

households rather than from all households (sampling

error). Differences also can occur because the interview

situation (length of questionnaire, effect of the interviewer,

USER NOTES III–1
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 2 SESS: 21 OUTPUT: Fri Aug 13 15:55:42 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ 0/ usernote

etc.) and the processing rules differ between the 100-

percent and sample tabulations. These types of differences are referred to as nonsampling errors. (For more

information on nonsampling error, see appendix C.)

The 100-percent data are the official counts and should

be used as the source of information on population and

housing items collected on the 100-percent questionnaire,

such as age, race, Hispanic origin, number of rooms, and

tenure. This is especially appropriate when the primary

focus is on counts of the population or housing units for

small areas such as census tracts/ BNA’s, block groups,

and for American Indian and Alaska Native areas. For

estimates of counts of persons and housing units by

characteristics asked only on a sample basis (such as

education, labor force status, income, and source of

water), the sample estimates should be used within the

context of the error associated with them.

Many users are interested in tabulations of items collected on the sample cross-classified by items collected on

a 100-percent basis such as age, race, sex, Hispanic

origin, and housing units by tenure. Given the way the

weights were applied during sample tabulations, generally,

there is exact agreement between sample estimates and

100-percent counts for total population and total housing

units for most geographic areas. At the State level and

higher geographic levels, sample estimates and 100-percent

counts for population by age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin

and for housing units by tenure, number of rooms and so

on would be reasonably similar and, in some cases, the

same.

At smaller geographic levels, including census tract/

BNA, there is still general agreement between 100-percent

counts and sample estimates of total population or housing units. At smaller geographic levels, however, there will

be expected differences between sample estimates and

100-percent counts for population by age, sex, race, and

Hispanic origin and for housing units by tenure, number of

rooms and so on. In these cases, users may want to

consider using derived measures (such as means and

medians) or percent distributions. Whether using absolute

numbers or derived measures for small population groups

and for a small number of housing units in small geographic areas, users should be cautioned that the sampling

error associated with these data may be large.

Even though the differences between sample estimates

and 100-percent counts for these categories are generally

small, the differences for the American Indian, as well as

the Hispanic origin populations, are relatively larger than

for other groups. The following provides some explanation

for these differences.

State-level sample estimates of the number of American Indians are generally higher than the corresponding

100-percent counts. It appears the differences are primarily the result of proportionately higher reporting of ‘‘Cherokee’’ tribe on sample questionnaires. This phenomenon

occurs primarily in off-reservation areas. The reasons for

the greater reporting of Cherokee on sample forms are not

fully known at this time. The Census Bureau will do

research to provide more information on this phenomenon.

For the Hispanic origin population, sample estimates at

the State level are generally lower than the corresponding

100-percent counts. The majority of difference is caused

by the 100-percent and sample processing of the Hispanic

question on the sample questionnaire when the respondent did not mark any response category. When processing the sample, we used written entries in race or Hispanic

origin as well as responses to questions only asked on the

sample, such as ancestry and place of birth. These procedures led to a lower proportion of persons being assigned

as Hispanic in sample processing than were assigned

during 100-percent processing. The Census Bureau will

evaluate the effectiveness of the 100-percent and sample

procedures.

As in previous censuses, the Census Bureau will evaluate the quality of the data and make this information

available to data users. In the meanwhile, both 100-

percent and sample data serve very important purposes

and, therefore, should be used within the limitations of the

sampling and nonsampling errors.

User Note 5

Thresholds and Complementary Thresholds—To show

characteristics for a large number of racial and Hispanic

groups and to avoid using a large number of pages to show

characteristics for small population groups, population

thresholds are used in some tables in this report. Also,

complementary population thresholds are used in some

tables to avoid showing largely repetitive data for the White

population and for the White, not of Hispanic origin population. Specifically, complementary thresholds are used to

limit the presentation of characteristics for the White

population when the population of races other than White

is small and for the White, not of Hispanic origin population

when the Hispanic origin population is small.

For example, assume that the threshold and complementary threshold are 1,000 in a table showing data by

race and Hispanic origin for counties. The threshold of

1,000 applies to each group, and in addition, the complementary threshold of 1,000 applies to White and to White,

not of Hispanic origin. Figure 1, shown on the next page,

illustrates how the threshold and complementary threshold

for race and Hispanic origin apply for a hypothetical

county. (For simplicity, it is assumed that the ‘‘Other race’’

population of the county is zero because characteristics

are not shown for the ‘‘Other race’’ population below the

State level.) Thresholds are calculated for each race and

figure 2 below. (For more information on the race and

Hispanic origin categories, see appendix B.)

The Census Bureau provides data in greater subjectmatter and geographic detail on summary tape files (STF’s)

than in printed reports. Each printed report is derived from

a specific summary tape file. For data not shown in a report

because of the application of thresholds or complementary

thresholds, see the corresponding summary tape file. For

more information on computer tapes and other data products, see appendix F.

User Note 6

The Hispanic origin groups included in the category, ‘‘All

other Hispanic origin,’’ may vary among some data products. Persons of Hispanic origin are those who classified

themselves in one of the specific Hispanic origin groups

listed on the census questionnaire—‘‘Mexican,’’ ‘‘Puerto

Rican,’’ ‘‘Cuban,’’ or ‘‘other Spanish/ Hispanic’’ origin.

In the tables of this report, the category, ‘‘All other

Hispanic origin’’ includes only those persons who reported

‘‘other Spanish/ Hispanic,’’ and are not included in the

specific groups listed under ‘‘Other Hispanic.’’

In other selected data products, ‘‘All other Hispanic

origin’’ is a residual category that includes all persons who

reported any Hispanic origin group but were not tabulated

in any of the Hispanic origin groups listed in the table. (For

more information on Hispanic origin categories, see appendix B.)

User Note 7

A processing error in Summary Tape File 4 affected the

data in tables 13, 54, 55, 103, 109, 135, 136, 158, 159, 187,

188, and 207 in this report. This error affected selected

income and poverty characteristics for the ‘‘not of Hispanic

population by race.’’

Corrected data will be produced at a later date. For

more information, contact the Income Statistics Branch on

301-763-8576 or the Poverty and Wealth Statistics Branch

In this report, counties containing no rural population

are shown in tables 214 through 217 but are excluded from

tables 218 through 221, showing rural farm. However, for

counties with rural population and no farm population, the

counties are shown in tables 218 through 221, with a dash

‘‘–’’ to represent zero for the corresponding data lines.

AMERICAN INDIAN AND ALASKA NATIVE AREA

Alaska Native Regional Corporation (ANRC)

Alaska Native Regional Corporations (ANRC’s) are corporate entities established under the Alaska Native Claims

Settlement Act of 1972, Public Law 92-203, as amended

by Public Law 94-204, to conduct both business and

nonprofit affairs of Alaska Natives. Alaska is divided into

AREA CLASSIFICATIONS A–1
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 2 SESS: 57 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 22 13:24:37 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appa

12 ANRC’s that cover the entire State, except for the

Annette Islands Reserve. The boundaries of the 12 ANRC’s

were established by the Department of the Interior, in

cooperation with Alaska Natives. Each ANRC was designed

to include, as far as practicable, Alaska Natives with a

common heritage and common interests. The ANRC boundaries for the 1990 census were identified by the Bureau of

Land Management. A 13th region was established for

Alaska Natives who are not permanent residents and who

chose not to enroll in one of the 12 ANRC’s; no census

products are prepared for the 13th region. ANRC’s were

first identified for the 1980 census.

Each ANRC is assigned a two-digit census code ranging

from 07 through 84. These census codes are assigned in

alphabetical order of the ANRC’s.

Alaska Native Village (ANV) Statistical Area

Alaska Native villages (ANV’s) constitute tribes, bands,

clans, groups, villages, communities, or associations in

Alaska that are recognized pursuant to the Alaska Native

Claims Settlement Act of 1972, Public Law 92-203. Because

ANV’s do not have legally designated boundaries, the

Census Bureau has established Alaska Native village

statistical areas (ANVSA’s) for statistical purposes. For the

1990 census, the Census Bureau cooperated with officials

of the nonprofit corporation within each participating Alaska

Native Regional Corporation (ANRC), as well as other

knowledgeable officials, to delineate boundaries that encompass the settled area associated with each ANV. ANVSA’s

are located within ANRC’s and do not cross ANRC boundaries. ANVSA’s for the 1990 census replace the ANV’s

that the Census Bureau recognized for the 1980 census.

Each ANVSA is assigned a four-digit census code

ranging from 6001 through 8989. Each ANVSA also is

assigned a five-digit FIPS code. Both the census and FIPS

codes are assigned in alphabetical order of ANVSA’s.

American Indian Reservation and Trust Land

American Indian Reservation—Federal American Indian

reservations are areas with boundaries established by

treaty, statute, and/ or executive or court order, and recognized by the Federal Government as territory in which

American Indian tribes have jurisdiction. State reservations

are lands held in trust by State governments for the use

and benefit of a given tribe. The reservations and their

boundaries were identified for the 1990 census by the

Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), Department of Interior (for

Federal reservations), and State governments (for State

reservations). The names of American Indian reservations

recognized by State governments, but not by the Federal

Government, are followed by ‘‘(State).’’ Areas composed

of reservation lands that are administered jointly and/ or

are claimed by two reservations, as identified by the BIA,

are called ‘‘joint areas,’’ and are treated as separate

American Indian reservations for census purposes.

Federal reservations may cross State boundaries, and

Federal and State reservations may cross county, county

subdivision, and place boundaries. For reservations that

cross State boundaries, only the portion of the reservations in a given State are shown in the data products for

that State; the entire reservations are shown in data

products for the United States.

Each American Indian reservation is assigned a fourdigit census code ranging from 0001 through 4989. These

census codes are assigned in alphabetical order of American Indian reservations nationwide, except that joint areas

appear at the end of the code range. Each American Indian

reservation also is assigned a five-digit FIPS code; because

the FIPS codes are assigned in alphabetical sequence of

American Indian reservations within each State, the FIPS

code is different in each State for reservations in more

than one State.

Trust Land—Trust lands are property associated with a

particular American Indian reservation or tribe, held in trust

by the Federal Government. Trust lands may be held in

trust either for a tribe (tribal trust land) or for an individual

member of a tribe (individual trust land). Trust lands

recognized for the 1990 census comprise all tribal trust

lands and inhabited individual trust lands located outside

of a reservation boundary. As with other American Indian

areas, trust lands may be located in more than one State.

Only the trust lands in a given State are shown in the data

products for that State; all trust lands associated with a

reservation or tribe are shown in data products for the

United States. The Census Bureau first reported data for

tribal trust lands for the 1980 census.

Trust lands are assigned a four-digit census code and a

five-digit FIPS code, the same as that for the reservation

with which they are associated. Trust lands not associated

with a reservation are presented by tribal name, interspersed alphabetically among the reservations.

Tribal Designated Statistical Area (TDSA)

Tribal designated statistical areas (TDSA’s) are areas,

delineated outside Oklahoma by federally- and Staterecognized tribes without a land base or associated trust

lands, to provide statistical areas for which the Census

Bureau tabulates data. TDSA’s represent areas generally

containing the American Indian population over which

federally-recognized tribes have jurisdiction and areas in

which State tribes provide benefits and services to their

members. The names of TDSA’s delineated by Staterecognized tribes are followed by ‘‘(State).’’ The Census

Bureau did not recognize TDSA’s before the 1990 census.

Each TDSA is assigned a four-digit census code ranging

from 9001 through 9589. The census codes are assigned

in alphabetical order of TDSA’s nationwide. Each TDSA

also is assigned a five-digit FIPS code in alphabetical order

within State.

Tribal Jurisdiction Statistical Area (TJSA)

Tribal jurisdiction statistical areas (TJSA’s) are areas,

delineated by federally-recognized tribes in Oklahoma

without a reservation, for which the Census Bureau tabulates data. TJSA’s represent areas generally containing

the American Indian population over which one or more

tribal governments have jurisdiction; if tribal officials delineated adjacent TJSA’s so that they include some duplicate

territory, the overlap area is called a ‘‘joint use area,’’

which is treated as a separate TJSA for census purposes.

TJSA’s replace the ‘‘Historic Areas of Oklahoma (excluding urbanized areas)’’ shown in 1980 census data products. The Historic Areas of Oklahoma comprised the

territory located within reservations that had legally established boundaries from 1900 to 1907; these reservations

were dissolved during the 2- to 3-year period preceding the

statehood of Oklahoma in 1907. The Historic Areas of

Oklahoma (excluding urbanized areas) were identified only

for the 1980 census.

Each TJSA is assigned a four-digit census code ranging

from 5001 through 5989. The census codes are assigned

in alphabetical order of TJSA’s, except that joint areas

appear at the end of the code range. Each TJSA also is

assigned a five-digit FIPS code in alphabetical order within

Oklahoma.

AREA MEASUREMENT

Area measurements provide the size, in square kilometers (also in square miles in printed reports), recorded for

each geographic entity for which the Census Bureau

tabulates data in general-purpose data products (except

crews-of-vessels entities and ZIP Codes). (Square kilometers may be divided by 2.59 to convert an area measurement to square miles.) Area was calculated from the

specific set of boundaries recorded for the entity in the

Census Bureau’s geographic data base (see ‘‘TIGER’’).

On machine-readable files, area measurements are shown

to three decimal places; the decimal point is implied. In

printed reports and listings, area measurements are shown

to one decimal.

The Census Bureau provides measurements for both

land area and total water area for the 1990 census; the

water figure includes inland, coastal, Great Lakes, and

territorial water. (For the 1980 census, the Census Bureau

provided area measurements for land and inland water.)

The Census Bureau will provide measurements for the

component types of water for the affected entities in a

separate file. ‘‘Inland water’’ consists of any lake, reservoir, pond, or similar body of water that is recorded in the

Census Bureau’s geographic data base. It also includes

any river, creek, canal, stream, or similar feature that is

recorded in that data base as a two-dimensional feature

(rather than as a single line). The portions of the oceans

and related large embayments (such as the Chesapeake

Bay and Puget Sound), the Gulf of Mexico, and the

Caribbean Sea that belong to the United States and its

territories are considered to be ‘‘coastal’’ and ‘‘territorial’’

waters; the Great Lakes are treated as a separate water

entity. Rivers and bays that empty into these bodies of

water are treated as ‘‘inland water’’ from the point beyond

which they are narrower than one nautical mile across.

Identification of land and inland, coastal, and territorial

waters is for statistical purposes, and does not necessarily

reflect legal definitions thereof.

By definition, census blocks do not include water within

their boundaries; therefore, the water area of a block is

always zero. Land area measurements may disagree with

the information displayed on census maps and in the

TIGER file because, for area measurement purposes,

features identified as ‘‘intermittent water’’ and ‘‘glacier’’

are reported as land area. For this reason, it may not be

possible to derive the land area for an entity by summing

the land area of its component census blocks. In addition,

the water area measurement reported for some geographic entities includes water that is not included in any

lower-level geographic entity. Therefore, because water is

contained only in a higher-level geographic entity, summing the water measurements for all the component

lower-level geographic entities will not yield the water area

of that higher-level entity. This occurs, for example, where

water is associated with a county but is not within the legal

boundary of any minor civil division, or the water is

associated with a State but is not within the legal boundary

of any county. Crews-of-vessels entities (see ‘‘Census

Tract and Block Numbering Area’’ and ‘‘Block’’) do not

encompass territory and therefore have no area measurements. ZIP Codes do not have specific boundaries, and

therefore, also do not have area measurements.

The accuracy of any area measurement figure is limited

by the inaccuracy inherent in (1) the location and shape

of the various boundary features in the data base, and

(2) rounding affecting the last digit in all operations that

compute and/ or sum the area measurements.

BLOCK

Census blocks are small areas bounded on all sides by

visible features such as streets, roads, streams, and

railroad tracks, and by invisible boundaries such as city,

town, township, and county limits, property lines, and short,

imaginary extensions of streets and roads.

Tabulation blocks, used in census data products, are in

most cases the same as collection blocks, used in the

census enumeration. In some cases, collection blocks

have been ‘‘split’’ into two or more parts required for data

tabulations. Tabulation blocks do not cross the boundaries

of counties, county subdivisions, places, census tracts or

block numbering areas, American Indian and Alaska Native

areas, congressional districts, voting districts, urban or

rural areas, or urbanized areas. The 1990 census is the

first for which the entire United States and its possessions

are block-numbered.

Blocks are numbered uniquely within each census tract

or BNA. A block is identified by a three-digit number,

sometimes with a single alphabetical suffix. Block numbers

AREA CLASSIFICATIONS A–3
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 4 SESS: 53 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 22 13:24:37 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appa

with suffixes generally represent collection blocks that

were ‘‘split’’ in order to identify separate geographic entities that divide the original block. For example, when a city

limit runs through data collection block 101, the data for

the portion inside the city is tabulated in block 101A and

the portion outside, in block 101B. A block number with the

suffix ‘‘Z’’ represents a ‘‘crews-of-vessels’’ entity for which

the Census Bureau tabulates data, but that does not

represent a true geographic area; such a block is shown on

census maps associated with an anchor symbol and a

census tract or block numbering area with a .99 suffix.

BLOCK GROUP (BG)

Geographic Block Group

A geographic block group (BG) is a cluster of blocks

having the same first digit of their three-digit identifying

numbers within a census tract or block numbering area

(BNA). For example, BG 3 within a census tract or BNA

includes all blocks numbered between 301 and 397. In

most cases, the numbering involves substantially fewer

than 97 blocks. Geographic BG’s never cross census tract

or BNA boundaries, but may cross the boundaries of

county subdivisions, places, American Indian and Alaska

Native areas, urbanized areas, voting districts, and congressional districts. BG’s generally contain between 250

and 550 housing units, with the ideal size being 400

housing units.

Tabulation Block Group

In the data tabulations, a geographic BG may be split to

present data for every unique combination of county

subdivision, place, American Indian and Alaska Native

area, urbanized area, voting district, urban/ rural and congressional district shown in the data product; for example,

if BG 3 is partly in a city and partly outside the city, there

will be separate tabulated records for each portion of BG 3.

BG’s are used in tabulating decennial census data nationwide in the 1990 census, in all block-numbered areas in the

1980 census, and in Tape Address Register (TAR) areas in

the 1970 census. For purposes of data presentation, BG’s

are a substitute for the enumeration districts (ED’s) used

for reporting data in many parts of the United States for the

1970 and 1980 censuses, and in all areas for pre-1970

censuses.

BOUNDARY CHANGES

The boundaries of some counties, county subdivisions,

American Indian and Alaska Native areas, and many

incorporated places, changed between those reported for

the 1980 census and January 1, 1990. Boundary changes

to legal entities result from:

1. Annexations to or detachments from legally established governmental units.

2. Mergers or consolidations of two or more governmental units.

3. Establishment of new governmental units.

4. Disincorporations or disorganizations of existing governmental units.

5. Changes in treaties and Executive Orders.

The historical counts shown for counties, county subdivisions, and places are not updated for such changes, and

thus reflect the population and housing units in the area as

delineated at each census. Information on boundary changes

reported between the 1980 and 1990 censuses for counties, county subdivisions, and incorporated places is presented in the ‘‘User Notes’’ section of the technical

documentation of Summary Tape Files 1 and 3, and in the

1990 CPH-2, Population and Housing Unit Counts printed

reports. For information on boundary changes for such

areas in the decade preceding other decennial censuses,

see the Number of Inhabitants reports for each census.

Boundary changes are not reported for some areas, such

as census designated places and block groups.

CENSUS REGION AND CENSUS DIVISION

Census Division

Census divisions are groupings of States that are subdivisions of the four census regions. There are nine

divisions, which the Census Bureau adopted in 1910 for

the presentation of data. The regions, divisions, and their

constituent States are:

Northeast Region

New England Division:

Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts,

Rhode Island, Connecticut

Middle Atlantic Division:

New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania

Midwest Region

East North Central Division:

Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin

West North Central Division:

Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota,

Nebraska, Kansas

South Region

South Atlantic Division:

Delaware, Maryland, District of Columbia, Virginia,

West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia,

Florida

East South Central Division:

Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi

West South Central Division:

Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas

West Region

Mountain Division:

Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico,

Arizona, Utah, Nevada

Pacific Division:

Washington, Oregon, California, Alaska, Hawaii

Census Region

Census regions are groupings of States that subdivide

the United States for the presentation of data. There are

four regions—Northeast, Midwest, South, and West. Each

of the four census regions is divided into two or more

census divisions. Prior to 1984, the Midwest region was

named the North Central region. From 1910, when census

regions were established, through the 1940’s, there were

three regions—North, South, and West.

CENSUS TRACT AND BLOCK NUMBERING

AREA

Block Numbering Area (BNA)

Block numbering areas (BNA’s) are small statistical

subdivisions of a county for grouping and numbering

blocks in nonmetropolitan counties where local census

statistical areas committees have not established census

tracts. State agencies and the Census Bureau delineated

BNA’s for the 1990 census, using guidelines similar to

those for the delineation of census tracts. BNA’s do not

cross county boundaries.

BNA’s are identified by a four-digit basic number and

may have a two-digit suffix; for example, 9901.07. The

decimal point separating the four-digit basic BNA number

from the two-digit suffix is shown in printed reports, in

microfiche, and on census maps; in machine-readable

files, the decimal point is implied. Many BNA’s do not have

a suffix; in such cases, the suffix field is left blank in all data

products. BNA numbers range from 9501 through 9989.99,

and are unique within a county (numbers in the range of

0001 through 9499.99 denote a census tract). The suffix

.99 identifies a BNA that was populated entirely by persons

aboard one or more civilian or military ships. A ‘‘crews-ofvessels’’ BNA appears on census maps only as an anchor

symbol with its BNA number (and block numbers on maps

showing block numbers); the BNA relates to the ships

associated with the onshore BNA’s having the same

four-digit basic number. Suffixes in the range .80 through

.98 usually identify BNA’s that either were revised or were

created during the 1990 census data collection activities.

Some of these revisions produced BNA’s that have extremely

small land area and may have little or no population or

housing. For data analysis, such a BNA can be summarized with an adjacent BNA.

Census Tract

Census tracts are small, relatively permanent statistical

subdivisions of a county. Census tracts are delineated for

all metropolitan areas (MA’s) and other densely populated

counties by local census statistical areas committees

following Census Bureau guidelines (more than 3,000

census tracts have been established in 221 counties

outside MA’s). Six States (California, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, New Jersey, and Rhode Island) and the

District of Columbia are covered entirely by census tracts.

Census tracts usually have between 2,500 and 8,000

persons and, when first delineated, are designed to be

homogeneous with respect to population characteristics,

economic status, and living conditions. Census tracts do

not cross county boundaries. The spatial size of census

tracts varies widely depending on the density of settlement. Census tract boundaries are delineated with the

intention of being maintained over a long time so that

statistical comparisons can be made from census to

census. However, physical changes in street patterns

caused by highway construction, new development, etc.,

may require occasional revisions; census tracts occasionally are split due to large population growth, or combined

as a result of substantial population decline. Census tracts

are referred to as ‘‘tracts’’ in all 1990 data products.

Census tracts are identified by a four-digit basic number

and may have a two-digit suffix; for example, 6059.02. The

decimal point separating the four-digit basic tract number

from the two-digit suffix is shown in printed reports, in

microfiche, and on census maps; in machine-readable

files, the decimal point is implied. Many census tracts do

not have a suffix; in such cases, the suffix field is left blank

in all data products. Leading zeros in a census tract

number (for example, 002502) are shown only on machinereadable files.

Census tract numbers range from 0001 through 9499.99

and are unique within a county (numbers in the range of

9501 through 9989.99 denote a block numbering area).

The suffix .99 identifies a census tract that was populated

entirely by persons aboard one or more civilian or military

ships. A ‘‘crews-of-vessels’’ census tract appears on census maps only as an anchor symbol with its census tract

number (and block numbers on maps showing block

numbers). These census tracts relate to the ships associated with the onshore census tract having the same

four-digit basic number. Suffixes in the range .80 through

.98 usually identify census tracts that either were revised

or were created during the 1990 census data collection

activities. Some of these revisions may have resulted in

census tracts that have extremely small land area and may

have little or no population or housing. For data analysis,

such a census tract can be summarized with an adjacent

census tract.

CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT (CD)

Congressional districts (CD’s) are the 435 areas from

which persons are elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. After the apportionment of congressional seats

among the States, based on census population counts,

each State is responsible for establishing CD’s for the

purpose of electing representatives. Each CD is to be as

equal in population to all other CD’s in the State as

practicable, based on the decennial census counts.

The CD’s that were in effect on January 1, 1990 were

those of the 101st Congress. Data on the 101st Congress

appear in an early 1990 census data product (Summary

Tape File 1A). The CD’s of the 101st Congress are the

same as those in effect for the 102nd Congress. CD’s of

the 103rd Congress, reflecting redistricting based on the

1990 census, are summarized in later 1990 data products

(STF’s 1D and 3D, and 1990 CPH-4, Population and

Housing Characteristics for Congressional Districts of the

103rd Congress printed reports).

COUNTY

The primary political divisions of most States are termed

‘‘counties.’’ In Louisiana, these divisions are known as

‘‘parishes.’’ In Alaska, which has no counties, the county

equivalents are the organized ‘‘boroughs’’ and the ‘‘census areas’’ that are delineated for statistical purposes by

the State of Alaska and the Census Bureau. In four States

(Maryland, Missouri, Nevada, and Virginia), there are one

or more cities that are independent of any county organization and thus constitute primary divisions of their States.

These cities are known as ‘‘independent cities’’ and are

treated as equivalent to counties for statistical purposes.

That part of Yellowstone National Park in Montana is

treated as a county equivalent. The District of Columbia

has no primary divisions, and the entire area is considered

equivalent to a county for statistical purposes.

Each county and county equivalent is assigned a threedigit FIPS code that is unique within State. These codes

are assigned in alphabetical order of county or county

equivalent within State, except for the independent cities,

which follow the listing of counties.

COUNTY SUBDIVISION

County subdivisions are the primary subdivisions of

counties and their equivalents for the reporting of decennial census data. They include census county divisions,

census subareas, minor civil divisions, and unorganized

territories.

Each county subdivision is assigned a three-digit census code in alphabetical order within county and a five-digit

FIPS code in alphabetical order within State.

Census County Division (CCD)

Census county divisions (CCD’s) are subdivisions of a

county that were delineated by the Census Bureau, in

cooperation with State officials and local census statistical

areas committees, for statistical purposes. CCD’s were

established in 21 States where there are no legally established minor civil divisions (MCD’s), where the MCD’s do

not have governmental or administrative purposes, where

the boundaries of the MCD’s change frequently, and/ or

where the MCD’s are not generally known to the public.

CCD’s have no legal functions, and are not governmental

units.

The boundaries of CCD’s usually are delineated to

follow visible features, and in most cases coincide with

census tract or block numbering area boundaries. The

name of each CCD is based on a place, county, or

well-known local name that identifies its location. CCD’s

have been established in the following 21 States: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida,

Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Kentucky, Montana, Nevada, New

Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee,

Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. For the 1980

census, the county subdivisions recognized for Nevada

were MCD’s.

Census Subarea (Alaska)

Census subareas are statistical subdivisions of boroughs and census areas (county equivalents) in Alaska.

Census subareas were delineated cooperatively by the

State of Alaska and the Census Bureau. The census

subareas, identified first in 1980, replaced the various

types of subdivisions used in the 1970 census.

Minor Civil Division (MCD)

Minor civil divisions (MCD’s) are the primary political or

administrative divisions of a county. MCD’s represent

many different kinds of legal entities with a wide variety of

governmental and/ or administrative functions. MCD’s are

variously designated as American Indian reservations,

assessment districts, boroughs, election districts, gores,

grants, magisterial districts, parish governing authority

districts, plantations, precincts, purchases, supervisors’

districts, towns, and townships. In some States, all or some

incorporated places are not located in any MCD and thus

serve as MCD’s in their own right. In other States, incorporated places are subordinate to (part of) the MCD’s in

which they are located, or the pattern is mixed—some

incorporated places are independent of MCD’s and others

are subordinate to one or more MCD’s.

The Census Bureau recognizes MCD’s in the following

28 States: Arkansas, Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,

Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New

Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North

Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota,

Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. The District of Columbia has no primary divisions, and the entire

area is considered equivalent to an MCD for statistical

purposes.

A–6 AREA CLASSIFICATIONS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 7 SESS: 50 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 22 13:24:37 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appa

The MCD’s in 12 selected States (Connecticut, Maine,

Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire,

New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin) also serve as general-purpose local

governments. The Census Bureau presents data for these

MCD’s in all data products in which it provides data for

places.

Unorganized Territory (unorg.)

In nine States (Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana,

Maine, Minnesota, North Carolina, North Dakota, and

South Dakota), some counties contain territory that is not

included in an MCD recognized by the Census Bureau.

Each separate area of unorganized territory in these

States is recognized as one or more separate county

subdivisions for census purposes. Each unorganized territory is given a descriptive name, followed by the designation ‘‘unorg.’’

GEOGRAPHIC CODE

Geographic codes are shown primarily on machinereadable data products, such as computer tape and compact disc-read only memory (CD-ROM), but also appear on

other products such as microfiche; they also are shown on

some census maps. Codes are identified as ‘‘census

codes’’ only if there is also a Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) code for the same geographic entity.

A code that is not identified as either ‘‘census’’ or ‘‘FIPS’’

is usually a census code for which there is no FIPS

equivalent, or for which the Census Bureau does not use

the FIPS code. The exceptions, which use only the FIPS

code in census products, are county, congressional district, and metropolitan area (that is, metropolitan statistical

area, consolidated metropolitan statistical area, and primary metropolitan statistical area).

Census Code

Census codes are assigned for a variety of geographic

entities, including American Indian and Alaska Native area,

census division, census region, county subdivision, place,

State, urbanized area, and voting district. The structure,

format, and meaning of census codes appear in the 1990

census Geographic Identification Code Scheme; in the

data dictionary portion of the technical documentation for

summary tape files, CD-ROM’s, and microfiche.

Federal Information Processing Standards

(FIPS) Code

Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) codes

are assigned for a variety of geographic entities, including

American Indian and Alaska Native area, congressional

district, county, county subdivision, metropolitan area, place,

and State. The structure, format, and meaning of FIPS

codes used in the census are shown in the 1990 census

Geographic Identification Code Scheme; in the data dictionary portion of the technical documentation for summary tape files, CD-ROM’s, and microfiche.

The objective of the FIPS codes is to improve the use of

data resources of the Federal Government and avoid

unnecessary duplication and incompatibilities in the collection, processing, and dissemination of data. More information about FIPS and FIPS code documentation is available

from the National Technical Information Service, Springfield, VA 22161.

United States Postal Service (USPS) Code

United States Postal Service (USPS) codes for States

are used in all 1990 data products. The codes are twocharacter alphabetic abbreviations. These codes are the

same as the FIPS two-character alphabetic abbreviations.

GEOGRAPHIC PRESENTATION

Hierarchical Presentation

A hierarchical geographic presentation shows the geographic entities in a superior/ subordinate structure in

census products. This structure is derived from the legal,

administrative, or areal relationships of the entities. The

hierarchical structure is depicted in report tables by means

of indentation, and is explained for machine-readable

media in the discussion of file structure in the geographic

coverage portion of the abstract in the technical documentation. An example of hierarchical presentation is the

‘‘standard census geographic hierarchy’’: block, within

block group, within census tract or block numbering area,

within place, within county subdivision, within county, within

State, within division, within region, within the United

States. Graphically, this is shown as:

United States

Region

Division

State

County

County subdivision

Place (or part)

Census tract/ block numbering area

(or part)

Block group (or part)

Block

Inventory Presentation

An inventory presentation of geographic entities is one

in which all entities of the same type are shown in

alphabetical or code sequence, without reference to their

hierarchical relationships. Generally, an inventory presentation shows totals for entities that may be split in a

hierarchical presentation, such as place, census tract/

AREA CLASSIFICATIONS A–7
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 8 SESS: 57 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 22 13:24:37 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appa

block numbering area, or block group. An example of a

series of inventory presentations is: State, followed by all

the counties in that State, followed by all the places in that

State. Graphically, this is shown as:

State

County ‘‘A’’

County ‘‘B’’

County ‘‘C’’

Place ‘‘X’’

Place ‘‘Y’’

Place ‘‘Z’’

HISTORICAL COUNTS

Historical counts for total population and total housing

units are shown in the 1990 CPH-2, Population and

Housing Unit Counts report series. As in past censuses,

the general rule for presenting historical data for States,

counties, county subdivisions, and places is to show

historical counts only for single, continually existing entities. Stated another way, if an entity existed for both the

current and preceding censuses, the tables show counts

for the preceding censuses. Included in this category are

entities of the same type (county, county subdivision,

place) even if they had changed their names. Also included

are entities that merged, but only if the new entity retained

the name of one of the merged entities. The historical

counts shown are for each entity as it was bounded at

each census.

In cases where an entity was formed since a preceding

census, such as a newly incorporated place or a newly

organized township, the symbol three dots ‘‘...’’ is shown

for earlier censuses. The three-dot symbol also is shown

for those parts of a place that have extended into an

additional county or county subdivision through annexation

or other revision of boundaries since the preceding census.

In a few cases, changes in the boundaries of county

subdivisions caused a place to be split into two or more

parts, or to be split differently than in the preceding census.

If historical counts for the parts of the place as currently

split did not appear in a preceding census, ‘‘(NA)’’ is shown

for the place in each county subdivision; however, the

historical population and housing unit counts of the place

appear in tables that show the entire place. For counties,

county subdivisions, and places formed since January 1,

1980, 1980 census population and housing unit counts in

the 1990 territory are reported in the geographic change

notes included in the ‘‘User Notes’’ text section of 1990

CPH-2, Population and Housing Unit Counts, and in the

technical documentation of Summary Tape Files 1 and 3.

In some cases, population and housing unit counts for

individual areas were revised since publication of the 1980

reports (indicated by the prefix ‘‘r’’). In a number of tables

of 1990 CPH-2, Population and Housing Unit Counts, 1980

counts are shown for aggregations of individual areas,

such as the number, population, and housing unit counts of

places in size groups, or urban and rural distributions.

Revisions of population and housing unit counts for individual areas were not applied to the various aggregations.

Therefore, it may not be possible to determine the individual areas in a given aggregation using the historical counts;

conversely, the sum of the counts shown for individual

areas may not agree with the aggregation.

INTERNAL POINT

An internal point is a set of geographic coordinates

(latitude and longitude) that is located within a specified

geographic entity. A single point is identified for each

entity; for many entities, this point represents the approximate geographic center of that entity. If the shape of the

entity caused this point to be located outside the boundaries of the entity, it is relocated from the center so that it

is within the entity. If the internal point for a block falls in a

water area, it is relocated to a land area within the block.

On machine-readable products, internal points are shown

to six decimal places; the decimal point is implied.

METROPOLITAN AREA (MA)

The general concept of a metropolitan area (MA) is one

of a large population nucleus, together with adjacent

communities that have a high degree of economic and

social integration with that nucleus. Some MA’s are defined

around two or more nuclei.

The MA classification is a statistical standard, developed for use by Federal agencies in the production,

analysis, and publication of data on MA’s. The MA’s are

designated and defined by the Federal Office of Management and Budget, following a set of official published

standards. These standards were developed by the interagency Federal Executive Committee on Metropolitan

Areas, with the aim of producing definitions that are as

consistent as possible for all MA’s nationwide.

Each MA must contain either a place with a minimum

population of 50,000 or a Census Bureau-defined urbanized area and a total MA population of at least 100,000

(75,000 in New England). An MA comprises one or more

central counties. An MA also may include one or more

outlying counties that have close economic and social

relationships with the central county. An outlying county

must have a specified level of commuting to the central

counties and also must meet certain standards regarding

metropolitan character, such as population density, urban

population, and population growth. In New England, MA’s

are composed of cities and towns rather than whole

counties.

The territory, population, and housing units in MA’s are

referred to as ‘‘metropolitan.’’ The metropolitan category is

subdivided into ‘‘inside central city’’ and ‘‘outside central

city.’’ The territory, population, and housing units located

outside MA’s are referred to as ‘‘nonmetropolitan.’’ The

A–8 AREA CLASSIFICATIONS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 9 SESS: 57 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 22 13:24:37 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appa

metropolitan and nonmetropolitan classification cuts across

the other hierarchies; for example, there is generally both

urban and rural territory within both metropolitan and

nonmetropolitan areas.

To meet the needs of various users, the standards

provide for a flexible structure of metropolitan definitions

that classify an MA either as a metropolitan statistical area

(MSA) or as a consolidated metropolitan statistical area

(CMSA) that is divided into primary metropolitan statistical

areas (PMSA’s). Documentation of the MA standards and

how they are applied is available from the Secretary,

Federal Executive Committee on Metropolitan Areas, Population Division, U.S. Bureau of the Census, Washington,

DC 20233.

Central City

In each MSA and CMSA, the largest place and, in some

cases, additional places are designated as ‘‘central cities’’

under the official standards. A few PMSA’s do not have

central cities. The largest central city and, in some cases,

up to two additional central cities are included in the title of

the MA; there also are central cities that are not included

in an MA title. An MA central city does not include any part

of that city that extends outside the MA boundary.

Consolidated and Primary Metropolitan

Statistical Area (CMSA and PMSA)

If an area that qualifies as an MA has more than one

million persons, primary metropolitan statistical areas (PMSA’s)

may be defined within it. PMSA’s consist of a large

urbanized county or cluster of counties that demonstrates

very strong internal economic and social links, in addition

to close ties to other portions of the larger area. When

PMSA’s are established, the larger area of which they are

component parts is designated a consolidated metropolitan statistical area (CMSA).

Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA)

Metropolitan statistical areas (MSA’s) are relatively freestanding MA’s and are not closely associated with other

MA’s. These areas typically are surrounded by nonmetropolitan counties.

Metropolitan Area Title and Code

The title of an MSA contains the name of its largest

central city and up to two additional city names, provided

that the additional places meet specified levels of population, employment, and commuting. Generally, a city with a

population of 250,000 or more is in the title, regardless of

other criteria.

The title of a PMSA may contain up to three place

names, as determined above, or up to three county names,

sequenced in order of population. A CMSA title also may

include up to three names, the first of which generally is

the most populous central city in the area. The second

name may be the first city or county name in the most

populous remaining PMSA; the third name may be the first

city or county name in the next most populous PMSA. A

regional designation may be substituted for the second

and/ or third names in a CMSA title if such a designation is

supported by local opinion and is deemed to be unambiguous and suitable by the Office of Management and

Budget.

The titles for all MA’s also contain the name of each

State in which the area is located. Each metropolitan area

is assigned a four-digit FIPS code, in alphabetical order

nationwide. If the fourth digit of the code is a ‘‘2,’’ it

identifies a CMSA. Additionally, there is a separate set of

two-digit codes for CMSA’s, also assigned alphabetically.

OUTLYING AREAS OF THE UNITED STATES

The Census Bureau treats the outlying areas as the

statistical equivalents of States for the 1990 census. The

outlying areas are American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (Northern Mariana

Islands), Republic of Palau (Palau), Puerto Rico, and the

Virgin Islands of the United States (Virgin Islands). Geographic definitions specific to each outlying area are

shown in appendix A of the text in the data products for

each area.

PLACE

Places, for the reporting of decennial census data,

include census designated places and incorporated places.

Each place is assigned a four-digit census code that is

unique within State. Each place is also assigned a five-digit

FIPS code that is unique within State. Both the census and

FIPS codes are assigned based on alphabetical order

within State. Consolidated cities (see below) are assigned

a one-character alphabetical census code that is unique

nationwide and a five-digit FIPS code that is unique within

State.

Census Designated Place (CDP)

Census designated places (CDP’s) are delineated for

the decennial census as the statistical counterparts of

incorporated places. CDP’s comprise densely settled concentrations of population that are identifiable by name, but

are not legally incorporated places. Their boundaries,

which usually coincide with visible features or the boundary

of an adjacent incorporated place, have no legal status,

nor do these places have officials elected to serve traditional municipal functions. CDP boundaries may change

with changes in the settlement pattern; a CDP with the

same name as in previous censuses does not necessarily

have the same boundaries.

AREA CLASSIFICATIONS A–9
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 10 SESS: 57 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 22 13:24:37 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appa

Beginning with the 1950 census, the Census Bureau, in

cooperation with State agencies and local census statistical areas committees, has identified and delineated boundaries for CDP’s. In the 1990 census, the name of each

such place is followed by ‘‘CDP.’’ In the 1980 census,

‘‘(CDP)’’ was used; in 1970, 1960, and 1950 censuses,

these places were identified by ‘‘(U),’’ meaning ‘‘unincorporated place.’’

To qualify as a CDP for the 1990 census, an unincorporated community must have met the following criteria:

1. In all States except Alaska and Hawaii, the Census

Bureau uses three population size criteria to designate

a CDP. These criteria are:

a. 1,000 or more persons if outside the boundaries of

an urbanized area (UA) delineated for the 1980

census or a subsequent special census.

b. 2,500 or more persons if inside the boundaries of

a UA delineated for the 1980 census or a subsequent special census.

c. 250 or more persons if outside the boundaries of a

UA delineated for the 1980 census or a subsequent special census, and within the official boundaries of an American Indian reservation recognized for the 1990 census.

2. In Alaska, 25 or more persons if outside a UA, and

2,500 or more persons if inside a UA delineated for the

1980 census or a subsequent special census.

3. In Hawaii, 300 or more persons, regardless of whether

the community is inside or outside a UA.

For the 1990 census, CDP’s qualified on the basis of the

population counts prepared for the 1990 Postcensus Local

Review Program. Because these counts were subject to

change, a few CDP’s may have final population counts

lower than the minimums shown above.

Hawaii is the only State with no incorporated places

recognized by the Bureau of the Census. All places shown

for Hawaii in the data products are CDP’s. By agreement

with the State of Hawaii, the Census Bureau does not show

data separately for the city of Honolulu, which is coextensive with Honolulu County.

Consolidated City

A consolidated government is a unit of local government for which the functions of an incorporated place and

its county or minor civil division (MCD) have merged. The

legal aspects of this action may result in both the primary

incorporated place and the county or MCD continuing to

exist as legal entities, even though the county or MCD

performs few or no governmental functions and has few or

no elected officials. Where this occurs, and where one or

more other incorporated places in the county or MCD

continue to function as separate governments, even though

they have been included in the consolidated government,

the primary incorporated place is referred to as a ‘‘consolidated city.’’

The data presentation for consolidated cities varies

depending upon the geographic presentation. In hierarchical presentations, consolidated cities are not shown. These

presentations include the semi-independent places and

the ‘‘consolidated city (remainder).’’ Where the consolidated city is coextensive with a county or county subdivision, the data shown for those areas in hierarchical

presentations are equivalent to those for the consolidated

government.

For inventory geographic presentations, the consolidated city appears at the end of the listing of places. The

data for the consolidated city include places that are part

of the consolidated city. The ‘‘consolidated city (remainder)’’ is the portion of the consolidated government minus

the semi-independent places, and is shown in alphabetical

sequence with other places.

In summary presentations by size of place, the consolidated city is not included. The places semi-independent of

consolidated cities are categorized by their size, as is the

‘‘consolidated city (remainder).’’

Each consolidated city is assigned a one-character

alphabetic census code. Each consolidated city also is

assigned a five-digit FIPS code that is unique within State.

The semi-independent places and the ‘‘consolidated city

(remainder)’’ are assigned a four-digit census code and a

five-digit FIPS place code that are unique within State.

Both the census and FIPS codes are assigned based on

alphabetical order within State.

Incorporated Place

Incorporated places recognized in 1990 census data

products are those reported to the Census Bureau as

legally in existence on January 1, 1990 under the laws of

their respective States as cities, boroughs, towns, and

villages, with the following exceptions: the towns in the

New England States, New York, and Wisconsin, and the

boroughs in New York are recognized as minor civil

divisions for census purposes; the boroughs in Alaska are

county equivalents.

POPULATION OR HOUSING UNIT DENSITY

Population or housing unit density is computed by

dividing the total population or housing units of a geographic unit (for example, United States, State, county,

place) by its land area measured in square kilometers or

square miles. Density is expressed as both ‘‘persons (or

housing units) per square kilometer’’ and ‘‘persons (or

housing units) per square mile’’ of land area in 1990

census printed reports.

STATE

States are the primary governmental divisions of the

United States. The District of Columbia is treated as a

statistical equivalent of a State for census purposes. The

four census regions, nine census divisions, and their

component States are shown under ‘‘CENSUS REGION

AND CENSUS DIVISION’’ in this appendix.

The Census Bureau treats the outlying areas as State

equivalents for the 1990 census. The outlying areas are

American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands,

Palau, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands of the United

States. Geographic definitions specific to each outlying

area are shown in appendix A in the data products for each

area.

Each State and equivalent is assigned a two-digit numeric

Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) code in

alphabetical order by State name, followed by the outlying

area names. Each State and equivalent area also is

assigned a two-digit census code. This code is assigned

on the basis of the geographic sequence of each State

within each census division; the first digit of the code is the

code for the respective division. Puerto Rico, the Virgin

Islands, and the outlying areas of the Pacific are assigned

‘‘0’’ as the division code. Each State and equivalent area

also is assigned the two-letter FIPS/ United States Postal

Service (USPS) code.

In 12 selected States (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey,

New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and

Wisconsin), the minor civil divisions also serve as generalpurpose local governments. The Census Bureau presents

data for these minor civil divisions in all data products in

which it provides data for places.

TIGER

TIGER is an acronym for the new digital (computerreadable) geographic data base that automates the mapping and related geographic activities required to support

the Census Bureau’s census and survey programs. The

Census Bureau developed the Topologically Integrated

Geographic Encoding and Referencing (TIGER) System to

automate the geographic support processes needed to

meet the major geographic needs of the 1990 census:

producing the cartographic products to support data collection and map publication, providing the geographic

structure for tabulation and publication of the collected

data, assigning residential and employer addresses to their

geographic location and relating those locations to the

Census Bureau’s geographic units, and so forth. The

content of the TIGER data base is made available to the

public through a variety of ‘‘TIGER Extract’’ files that may

be obtained from the Data User Services Division, U.S.

Bureau of the Census, Washington, DC 20233.

UNITED STATES

The United States comprises the 50 States and the

District of Columbia. In addition, the Census Bureau treats

the outlying areas as statistical equivalents of States for

the 1990 census. The outlying areas include American

Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, Puerto

Rico, and the Virgin Islands.

URBAN AND RURAL

The Census Bureau defines ‘‘urban’’ for the 1990

census as comprising all territory, population, and housing

units in urbanized areas and in places of 2,500 or more

persons outside urbanized areas. More specifically, ‘‘urban’’

consists of territory, persons, and housing units in:

1. Places of 2,500 or more persons incorporated as

cities, villages, boroughs (except in Alaska and New

York), and towns (except in the six New England

States, New York, and Wisconsin), but excluding the

rural portions of ‘‘extended cities.’’

2. Census designated places of 2,500 or more persons.

3. Other territory, incorporated or unincorporated, included

in urbanized areas.

Territory, population, and housing units not classified as

urban constitute ‘‘rural.’’ In the 100-percent data products,

‘‘rural’’ is divided into ‘‘places of less than 2,500’’ and ‘‘not

in places.’’ The ‘‘not in places’’ category comprises ‘‘rural’’

outside incorporated and census designated places and

the rural portions of extended cities. In many data products, the term ‘‘other rural’’ is used; ‘‘other rural’’ is a

residual category specific to the classification of the rural in

each data product.

In the sample data products, rural population and housing units are subdivided into ‘‘rural farm’’ and ‘‘rural

nonfarm.’’ ‘‘Rural farm’’ comprises all rural households

and housing units on farms (places from which $1,000 or

more of agricultural products were sold in 1989); ‘‘rural

nonfarm’’ comprises the remaining rural.

The urban and rural classification cuts across the other

hierarchies; for example, there is generally both urban and

rural territory within both metropolitan and nonmetropolitan

areas.

In censuses prior to 1950, ‘‘urban’’ comprised all territory, persons, and housing units in incorporated places of

2,500 or more persons, and in areas (usually minor civil

divisions) classified as urban under special rules relating to

population size and density. The definition of urban that

restricted itself to incorporated places having 2,500 or

more persons excluded many large, densely settled areas

merely because they were not incorporated. Prior to the

1950 census, the Census Bureau attempted to avoid some

of the more obvious omissions by classifying selected

areas as ‘‘urban under special rules.’’ Even with these

rules, however, many large, closely built-up areas were

excluded from the urban category.

To improve its measure of urban territory, population,

and housing units, the Census Bureau adopted the concept of the urbanized area and delineated boundaries for

AREA CLASSIFICATIONS A–11
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 12 SESS: 57 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 22 13:24:37 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appa

unincorporated places (now, census designated places)

for the 1950 census. Urban was defined as territory,

persons, and housing units in urbanized areas and, outside

urbanized areas, in all places, incorporated or unincorporated, that had 2,500 or more persons. With the following

three exceptions, the 1950 census definition of urban has

continued substantially unchanged. First, in the 1960 census (but not in the 1970, 1980, or 1990 censuses), certain

towns in the New England States, townships in New

Jersey and Pennsylvania, and Arlington County, Virginia,

were designated as urban. However, most of these ‘‘special rule’’ areas would have been classified as urban

anyway because they were included in an urbanized area

or in an unincorporated place of 2,500 or more persons.

Second, ‘‘extended cities’’ were identified for the 1970,

1980, and 1990 censuses. Extended cities primarily affect

the figures for urban and rural territory (area), but have very

little effect on the urban and rural population and housing

units at the national and State levels— although for some

individual counties and urbanized areas, the effects have

been more evident. Third, changes since the 1970 census

in the criteria for defining urbanized areas have permitted

these areas to be defined around smaller centers.

Documentation of the urbanized area and extended city

criteria is available from the Chief, Geography Division,

U.S. Bureau of the Census, Washington, DC 20233.

Extended City

Since the 1960 census, there has been a trend in some

States toward the extension of city boundaries to include

territory that is essentially rural in character. The classification of all the population and living quarters of such

places as urban would include in the urban designation

territory, persons, and housing units whose environment is

primarily rural. For the 1970, 1980, and 1990 censuses, the

Census Bureau identified as rural such territory and its

population and housing units for each extended city whose

closely settled area was located in an urbanized area. For

the 1990 census, this classification also has been applied

to certain places outside urbanized areas.

In summary presentations by size of place, the urban

portion of an extended city is classified by the population of

the entire place; the rural portion is included in ‘‘other

rural.’’

URBANIZED AREA (UA)

The Census Bureau delineates urbanized areas (UA’s)

to provide a better separation of urban and rural territory,

population, and housing in the vicinity of large places. A UA

comprises one or more places (‘‘central place’’) and the

adjacent densely settled surrounding territory (‘‘urban fringe’’)

that together have a minimum of 50,000 persons. The

urban fringe generally consists of contiguous territory

having a density of least 1,000 persons per square mile.

The urban fringe also includes outlying territory of such

density if it was connected to the core of the contiguous

area by road and is within 1 1/ 2 road miles of that core, or

within 5 road miles of the core but separated by water or

other undevelopable territory. Other territory with a population density of fewer than 1,000 people per square mile is

included in the urban fringe if it eliminates an enclave or

closes an indentation in the boundary of the urbanized

area. The population density is determined by (1) outside

of a place, one or more contiguous census blocks with a

population density of at least 1,000 persons per square

mile or (2) inclusion of a place containing census blocks

that have at least 50 percent of the population of the place

and a density of at least 1,000 persons per square mile.

The complete criteria are available from the Chief, Geography Division, U.S. Bureau of the Census, Washington,

DC 20233.

Urbanized Area Central Place

One or more central places function as the dominant

centers of each UA. The identification of a UA central

place permits the comparison of this dominant center with

the remaining territory in the UA. There is no limit on the

number of central places, and not all central places are

necessarily included in the UA title. UA central places

include:

1. Each place entirely (or partially, if the place is an

extended city) within the UA that is a central city of a

metropolitan area (MA).

2. If the UA does not contain an MA central city or is

located outside of an MA, the central place(s) is

determined by population size.

Urbanized Area Title and Code

The title of a UA identifies those places that are most

important within the UA; it links the UA to the encompassing MA, where appropriate. If a single MA includes most of

the UA, the title and code of the UA generally are the same

as the title and code of the MA. If the UA is not mostly

included in a single MA, if it does not include any place that

is a central city of the encompassing MA, or if it is not

located in an MA, the Census Bureau uses the population

size of the included places, with a preference for incorporated places, to determine the UA title. The name of each

State in which the UA is located also is in each UA title.

The numeric code used to identify each UA is the same

as the code for the mostly encompassing MA (including

CMSA and PMSA). If MA title cities represent multiple

UA’s, or the UA title city does not correspond to the first

name of an MA title, the Census Bureau assigns a code

based on the alphabetical sequence of the UA title in

relationship to the other UA and MA titles.

VOTING DISTRICT (VTD)

A voting district (VTD) is any of a variety of types of

areas (for example, election districts, precincts, wards,

legislative districts) established by State and local governments for purposes of elections. For census purposes,

A–12 AREA CLASSIFICATIONS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 13 SESS: 57 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 22 13:24:37 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appa

each State participating in Phase 2 of the 1990 Census

Redistricting Data Program outlined the boundaries of

VTD’s around groups of whole census blocks on census

maps. The entities identified as VTD’s are not necessarily

those legally or currently established. Also, to meet the

‘‘whole block’’ criterion, a State may have had to adjust

VTD boundaries to nearby block boundaries. Therefore,

the VTD’s shown on the 1990 census tapes, listings, and

maps may not represent the actual VTD’s in effect at the

time of the census. In the 1980 census, VTD’s were

referred to as ‘‘election precincts.’’

Each VTD is assigned a four-character alphanumeric

code that is unique within each county. The code ‘‘ZZZZ’’

is assigned to nonparticipating areas; the Census Bureau

reports data for areas coded ‘‘ZZZZ.’’

ZIP CODE

ZIP Codes are administrative units established by the

United States Postal Service (USPS) for the distribution of

mail. ZIP Codes serve addresses for the most efficient

delivery of mail, and therefore generally do not respect

political or census statistical area boundaries. ZIP Codes

usually do not have clearly identifiable boundaries, often

serve a continually changing area, are changed periodically to meet postal requirements, and do not cover all the

land area of the United States. ZIP Codes are identified by

five-digit codes assigned by the USPS. The first three digits

identify a major city or sectional distribution center, and the

last two digits generally signify a specific post office’s

delivery area or point. For the 1990 census, ZIP Code data

are tabulated for the five-digit codes in STF 3B.

SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS

AGE

The data on age were derived from answers to questionnaire item 5, which was asked of all persons. The age

classification is based on the age of the person in complete years as of April 1, 1990. The age response in

question 5a was used normally to represent a person’s

age. However, when the age response was unacceptable

or unavailable, a person’s age was derived from an acceptable year-of-birth response in question 5b.

Data on age are used to determine the applicability of

other questions for a person and to classify other characteristics in census tabulations. Age data are needed to

interpret most social and economic characteristics used to

plan and examine many programs and policies. Therefore,

age is tabulated by single years of age and by many

different groupings, such as 5-year age groups.

Some tabulations are shown by the age of the householder. These data were derived from the age responses

for each householder. (For more information on householder, see the discussion under ‘‘Household Type and

Relationship.’’)

Median Age—This measure divides the age distribution

into two equal parts: one-half of the cases falling below the

median value and one-half above the value. Generally,

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–1
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 2 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

median age is computed on the basis of more detailed age

intervals than are shown in some census publications;

thus, a median based on a less detailed distribution may

differ slightly from a corresponding median for the same

population based on a more detailed distribution. (For

more information on medians, see the discussion under

‘‘Derived Measures.’’)

Limitation of the Data—Counts in 1970 and 1980 for

persons 100 years old and over were substantially overstated. Improvements were made in the questionnaire

design, in the allocation procedures, and to the respondent

instruction guide to attempt to minimize this problem for

the 1990 census.

Review of detailed 1990 census information indicated

that respondents tended to provide their age as of the date

of completion of the questionnaire, not their age as of April

1, 1990. In addition, there may have been a tendency for

respondents to round their age up if they were close to

having a birthday. It is likely that approximately 10 percent

of persons in most age groups are actually 1 year younger.

For most single years of age, the misstatements are

largely offsetting. The problem is most pronounced at

age 0 because persons lost to age 1 may not have been

fully offset by the inclusion of babies born after April 1,

1990, and because there may have been more rounding

up to age 1 to avoid reporting age as 0 years. (Age in

complete months was not collected for infants under

age 1.)

The reporting of age 1 year older than age on April 1,

1990, is likely to have been greater in areas where the

census data were collected later in 1990. The magnitude

of this problem was much less in the three previous

censuses where age was typically derived from respondent data on year of birth and quarter of birth. (For more

information on the design of the age question, see the

section below that discusses ‘‘Comparability.’’)

Comparability—Age data have been collected in every

census. For the first time since 1950, the 1990 data are not

available by quarter year of age. This change was made so

that coded information could be obtained for both age and

year of birth. In each census since 1940, the age of a

person was assigned when it was not reported. In censuses before 1940, with the exception of 1880, persons of

unknown age were shown as a separate category. Since

1960, assignment of unknown age has been performed by

a general procedure described as ‘‘imputation.’’ The specific procedures for imputing age have been different in

each census. (For more information on imputation, see

Appendix C, Accuracy of the Data.)

ANCESTRY

The data on ancestry were derived from answers to

questionnaire item 13, which was asked of a sample of

persons. The question was based on self-identification; the

data on ancestry represent self-classification by people

according to the ancestry group(s) with which they most

closely identify. Ancestry refers to a person’s ethnic origin

or descent, ‘‘roots,’’ or heritage or the place of birth of the

person or the person’s parents or ancestors before their

arrival in the United States. Some ethnic identities, such as

‘‘Egyptian’’ or ‘‘Polish’’ can be traced to geographic areas

outside the United States, while other ethnicities such as

‘‘Pennsylvania Dutch’’ or ‘‘Cajun’’ evolved in the United

States.

The intent of the ancestry question was not to measure

the degree of attachment the respondent had to a particular ethnicity. For example, a response of ‘‘Irish’’ might

reflect total involvement in an ‘‘Irish’’ community or only a

memory of ancestors several generations removed from

the individual.

The Census Bureau coded the responses through an

automated review, edit, and coding operation. The openended write-in ancestry item was coded by subject-matter

specialists into a numeric representation using a code list

containing over 1,000 categories. The 1990 code list

reflects the results of the Census Bureau’s own research

and consultations with many ethnic experts. Many decisions were made to determine the classification of responses.

These decisions affected the grouping of the tabulated

data. For example, the ‘‘Assyrian’’ category includes both

responses of ‘‘Assyrian’’ and ‘‘Chaldean.’’

The ancestry question allowed respondents to report

one or more ancestry groups. While a large number of

respondents listed a single ancestry, the majority of answers

included more than one ethnic entry. Generally, only the

first two responses reported were coded in 1990. If a

response was in terms of a dual ancestry, for example,

Irish-English, the person was assigned two codes, in this

case one for Irish and another for English.

However, in certain cases, multiple responses such as

‘‘French Canadian,’’ ‘‘Scotch-Irish,’’ ‘‘Greek Cypriote,’’ and

‘‘Black Dutch’’ were assigned a single code reflecting their

status as unique groups. If a person reported one of these

unique groups in addition to another group, for example,

‘‘Scotch-Irish English,’’ resulting in three terms, that person received one code for the unique group (‘‘ScotchIrish’’) and another one for the remaining group (‘‘English’’).

If a person reported ‘‘English Irish French,’’ only English

and Irish were coded. Certain combinations of ancestries

where the ancestry group is a part of another, such as

‘‘German-Bavarian,’’ the responses were coded as a single ancestry using the smaller group (‘‘Bavarian’’). Also,

responses such as ‘‘Polish-American’’ or ‘‘Italian-American’’

were coded and tabulated as a single entry (‘‘Polish’’ or

‘‘Italian’’).

The Census Bureau accepted ‘‘American’’ as a unique

ethnicity if it was given alone, with an ambiguous response,

or with State names. If the respondent listed any other

ethnic identity such as ‘‘Italian American,’’ generally the

‘‘American’’ portion of the response was not coded. However, distinct groups such as ‘‘American Indian,’’ ‘‘Mexican

American,’’ and ‘‘African American’’ were coded and identified separately because they represented groups who

B–2 DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 3 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

considered themselves different from those who reported

as ‘‘Indian,’’ ‘‘Mexican,’’ or ‘‘African,’’ respectively.

In all tabulations, when respondents provided an unacceptable ethnic identity (for example, an uncodeable or

unintelligible response such as ‘‘multi-national,’’ ‘‘adopted,’’

or ‘‘I have no idea’’), the answer was included in ‘‘Ancestry

not reported.’’

The tabulations on ancestry are presented using two

types of data presentations—one used total persons as

the base, and the other used total responses as the base.

The following are categories shown in the two data presentations:

Presentation Based on Persons:

Single Ancestries Reported—Includes all persons

who reported only one ethnic group. Included in this

category are persons with multiple-term responses

such as ‘‘Scotch-Irish’’ who are assigned a single

code.

Multiple Ancestries Reported—Includes all persons

who reported more than one group and were assigned

two ancestry codes.

Ancestry Unclassified—Includes all persons who provided a response that could not be assigned an

ancestry code because they provided nonsensical

entries or religious responses.

Presentations Based on Responses:

Total Ancestries Reported—Includes the total number of ancestries reported and coded. If a person

reported a multiple ancestry such as ‘‘French Danish,’’ that response was counted twice in the tabulations—once in the ‘‘French’’ category and again in

the ‘‘Danish’’ category. Thus, the sum of the counts

in this type of presentation is not the total population

but the total of all responses.

First Ancestry Reported—Includes the first response

of all persons who reported at least one codeable

entry. For example, in this category, the count for

‘‘Danish’’ would include all those who reported only

Danish and those who reported Danish first and then

some other group.

Second Ancestry Reported—Includes the second

response of all persons who reported a multiple

ancestry. Thus, the count for ‘‘Danish’’ in this category includes all persons who reported Danish as the

second response, regardless of the first response

provided.

The Census Bureau identified hundreds of ethnic groups

in the 1990 census. However, it was impossible to show

information for every group in all census tabulations because

of space constraints. Publications such as the 1990 CP-2,

Social and Economic Characteristics and the 1990 CPH-3,

Population and Housing Characteristics for Census Tracts

and Block Numbering Areas reports show a limited number

of groups based on the number reported and the advice

received from experts. A more complete distribution of

groups is presented in the 1990 Summary Tape File 4,

supplementary reports, and a special subject report on

ancestry. In addition, groups identified specifically in the

questions on race and Hispanic origin (for example, Japanese, Laotian, Mexican, Cuban, and Spaniard), in general,

are not shown separately in ancestry tabulations.

Limitation of the Data—Although some experts consider

religious affiliation a component of ethnic identity, the

ancestry question was not designed to collect any information concerning religion. The Bureau of the Census is

prohibited from collecting information on religion. Thus, if a

religion was given as an answer to the ancestry question,

it was coded as an ‘‘Other’’ response.

Comparability—A question on ancestry was first asked in

the 1980 census. Although there were no comparable data

prior to the 1980 census, related information on ethnicity

was collected through questions on parental birthplace,

own birthplace, and language which were included in

previous censuses. Unlike other census questions, there

was no imputation for nonresponse to the ancestry question.

In 1990, respondents were allowed to report more than

one ancestry group; however, only the first two ancestry

groups identified were coded. In 1980, the Census Bureau

attempted to code a third ancestry for selected tripleancestry responses.

New categories such as ‘‘Arab’’ and ‘‘West Indian’’

were added to the 1990 question to meet important data

needs. The ‘‘West Indian’’ category excluded ‘‘Hispanic’’

groups such as ‘‘Puerto Rican’’ and ‘‘Cuban’’ that were

identified primarily through the question on Hispanic origin.

In 1990, the ancestry group, ‘‘American’’ is recognized and

tabulated as a unique ethnicity. In 1980, ‘‘American’’ was

tabulated but included under the category ‘‘Ancestry not

specified.’’

A major improvement in the 1990 census was the use of

an automated coding system for ancestry responses. The

automated coding system used in the 1990 census greatly

reduced the potential for error associated with a clerical

review. Specialists with a thorough knowledge of the

subject matter reviewed, edited, coded, and resolved

inconsistent or incomplete responses.

CITIZENSHIP

The data on citizenship were derived from answers to

questionnaire item 9, which was asked of a sample of

persons.

Citizen—Persons who indicated that they were nativeborn and foreign-born persons who indicated that they

have become naturalized. (For more information on native

and foreign born, see the discussion under ‘‘Place of

Birth.’’)

Islands of the United States, or the Commonwealth of the

Northern Mariana Islands, (3) born abroad of American

parents, and (4) citizen by naturalization.

Naturalized Citizen—Foreign-born persons who had

completed the naturalization process at the time of

the census and upon whom the rights of citizenship

had been conferred.

Not a Citizen—Foreign-born persons who were not citizens, including persons who had begun but not completed

the naturalization process at the time of the census.

Limitation of the Data—Evaluation studies completed

after previous censuses indicated that some persons may

have reported themselves as citizens although they had

not yet attained the status.

Comparability—Similar questions on citizenship were asked

in the censuses of 1820, 1830, 1870, 1890 through 1950,

1970, and 1980. The 1980 question was asked of a sample

of the foreign-born population. In 1990, both native and

foreign-born persons who received the long-form questionnaire were asked to respond to the citizenship question.

EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT

Data on educational attainment were derived from

answers to questionnaire item 12, which was asked of a

sample of persons. Data are tabulated as attainment for

persons 15 years old and over. Persons are classified

according to the highest level of school completed or the

highest degree received. The question included instructions to report the level of the previous grade attended or

the highest degree received for persons currently enrolled

in school. The question included response categories

which allowed persons to report completing the 12th grade

without receiving a high school diploma, and which instructed

respondents to report as ‘‘high school graduate(s)’’—persons who received either a high school diploma or the

equivalent, for example, passed the Test of General

Educational Development (G.E.D.), and did not attend

college. (On the Military Census Report questionnaire, the

lowest response category was ‘‘Less than 9th grade.’’)

Instructions included in the 1990 respondent instruction

guide, which was mailed with the census questionnaire,

further specified that schooling completed in foreign or

ungraded school systems should be reported as the

equivalent level of schooling in the regular American

system; that vocational certificates or diplomas from vocational, trade, or business schools or colleges were not to

be reported unless they were college level degrees; and

that honorary degrees were not to be reported. The

instructions gave ‘‘medicine, dentistry, chiropractic, optometry, osteopathic medicine, pharmacy, podiatry, veterinary

medicine, law, and theology’’ as examples of professional

school degrees, and specifically excluded ‘‘barber school,

cosmetology, or other training for a specific trade’’ from

the professional school category. The order in which they

were listed suggested that doctorate degrees were ‘‘higher’’

than professional school degrees, which were ‘‘higher’’

than master’s degrees.

Persons who did not report educational attainment were

assigned the attainment of a person of the same age, race

or Spanish origin, and sex who resided in the same or a

nearby area. Persons who filled more than one circle were

edited to the highest level or degree reported.

High School Graduate or Higher—Includes persons

whose highest degree was a high school diploma or

its equivalent, persons who attended college or professional school, and persons who received a college, university, or professional degree. Persons who

reported completing the 12th grade but not receiving

a diploma are not included.

Not Enrolled, Not High School Graduate—Includes

persons of compulsory school attendance age or

above who were not enrolled in school and were not

high school graduates; these persons may be taken

to be ‘‘high school dropouts.’’ There is no restriction

on when they ‘‘dropped out’’ of school, and they may

have never attended high school.

In prior censuses, ‘‘Median school years completed’’

was used as a summary measure of educational attainment. In 1990, the median can only be calculated for

groups of which less than half the members have attended

college. ‘‘Percent high school graduate or higher’’ and

‘‘Percent bachelor’s degree or higher’’ are summary measures which can be calculated from the present data and

offer quite readily interpretable measures of differences

between population subgroups. To make comparisons

over time, ‘‘Percent high school graduate or higher’’ can be

calculated and ‘‘Percent bachelor’s degree or higher’’ can

be approximated with data from previous censuses.

Comparability—From 1840 to 1930, the census measured educational attainment by means of a basic literacy

question. In 1940, a single question was asked on highest

grade of school completed. In the censuses of 1950

through 1980, a two-part question asking highest grade of

school attended and whether that grade was finished was

used to construct highest grade or year of school completed. For persons who have not attended college, the

response categories in the 1990 educational attainment

question should produce data which are comparable to

data on highest grade completed from earlier censuses.

The response categories for persons who have attended

college were modified from earlier censuses because

there was some ambiguity in interpreting responses in

terms of the number of years of college completed. For

instance, it was not clear whether ‘‘completed the fourth

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 5 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

year of college,’’ ‘‘completed the senior year of college,’’

and ‘‘college graduate’’ were synonymous. Research conducted shortly before the census suggests that these

terms were more distinct in 1990 than in earlier decades,

and this change may have threatened the ability to estimate the number of ‘‘college graduates’’ from the number

of persons reported as having completed the fourth or a

higher year of college. It was even more difficult to make

inferences about post-baccalaureate degrees and ‘‘Associate’’ degrees from highest year of college completed.

Thus, comparisons of post-secondary educational attainment in this and earlier censuses should be made with

great caution.

In the 1960 and subsequent censuses, persons for

whom educational attainment was not reported were assigned

the same attainment level as a similar person whose

residence was in the same or a nearby area. In the 1940

and 1950 censuses, persons for whom educational attainment was not reported were not allocated.

EMPLOYMENT STATUS

The data on employment status were derived from

answers to questionnaire items 21, 25, and 26, which were

asked of a sample of persons. The series of questions on

employment status was asked of all persons 15 years old

and over and was designed to identify, in this sequence:

(1) persons who worked at any time during the reference

week; (2) persons who did not work during the reference

week but who had jobs or businesses from which they

were temporarily absent (excluding layoff); (3) persons on

layoff; and (4) persons who did not work during the

reference week, but who were looking for work during the

last four weeks and were available for work during the

reference week. (For more information, see the discussion

under ‘‘Reference Week.’’)

The employment status data shown in this and other

1990 census tabulations relate to persons 16 years old

and over. Some tabulations showing employment status,

however, include persons 15 years old. By definition, these

persons are classified as ‘‘Not in Labor Force.’’. In the

1940, 1950, and 1960 censuses, employment status data

were presented for persons 14 years old and over. The

change in the universe was made in 1970 to agree with the

official measurement of the labor force as revised in

January 1967 by the U.S. Department of Labor. The 1970

census was the last to show employment data for persons

14 and 15 years old.

Employed—All civilians 16 years old and over who were

either (1) ‘‘at work’’—those who did any work at all during

the reference week as paid employees, worked in their

own business or profession, worked on their own farm, or

worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers on a family

farm or in a family business; or (2) were ‘‘with a job but not

at work’’—those who did not work during the reference

week but had jobs or businesses from which they were

temporarily absent due to illness, bad weather, industrial

dispute, vacation, or other personal reasons. Excluded

from the employed are persons whose only activity consisted of work around the house or unpaid volunteer work

for religious, charitable, and similar organizations; also

excluded are persons on active duty in the United States

Armed Forces.

Unemployed—All civilians 16 years old and over are

classified as unemployed if they (1) were neither ‘‘at work’’

nor ‘‘with a job but not at work’’ during the reference week,

and (2) were looking for work during the last 4 weeks, and

(3) were available to accept a job. Also included as

unemployed are civilians who did not work at all during the

reference week and were waiting to be called back to a job

from which they had been laid off. Examples of job seeking

activities are:

• Registering at a public or private employment office

• Meeting with prospective employers

• Investigating possibilities for starting a professional

practice or opening a business

• Placing or answering advertisements

• Writing letters of application

• Being on a union or professional register

Civilian Labor Force—Consists of persons classified as

employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria

described above.

Experienced Unemployed—These are unemployed persons who have worked at any time in the past.

Experienced Civilian Labor Force—Consists of the employed

and the experienced unemployed.

Labor Force—All persons classified in the civilian labor

force plus members of the U.S. Armed Forces (persons on

active duty with the United States Army, Air Force, Navy,

Marine Corps, or Coast Guard).

Not in Labor Force—All persons 16 years old and over

who are not classified as members of the labor force. This

category consists mainly of students, housewives, retired

workers, seasonal workers enumerated in an off season

who were not looking for work, institutionalized persons,

and persons doing only incidental unpaid family work (less

than 15 hours during the reference week).

Worker—This term appears in connection with several

subjects: journey-to-work items, class of worker, weeks

worked in 1989, and number of workers in family in 1989.

Its meaning varies and, therefore, should be determined in

each case by referring to the definition of the subject in

which it appears.

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–5
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 6 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

Actual Hours Worked Last Week—All persons who

reported working during the reference week were asked to

report in questionnaire item 21b the number of hours that

they worked. The statistics on hours worked pertain to the

number of hours actually worked at all jobs, and do not

necessarily reflect the number of hours typically or usually

worked or the scheduled number of hours. The concept of

‘‘actual hours’’ differs from that of ‘‘usual hours’’ described

below. The number of persons who worked only a small

number of hours is probably understated since such persons sometimes consider themselves as not working.

Respondents were asked to include overtime or extra

hours worked, but to exclude lunch hours, sick leave, and

vacation leave.

Limitation of the Data—The census may understate the

number of employed persons because persons who have

irregular, casual, or unstructured jobs sometimes report

themselves as not working. The number of employed

persons ‘‘at work’’ is probably overstated in the census

(and conversely, the number of employed ‘‘with a job, but

not at work’’ is understated) since some persons on

vacation or sick leave erroneously reported themselves as

working. This problem has no effect on the total number of

employed persons. The reference week for the employment data is not the same for all persons. Since persons

can change their employment status from one week to

another, the lack of a uniform reference week may mean

that the employment data do not reflect the reality of the

employment situation of any given week. (For more information, see the discussion under ‘‘Reference Week.’’)

Comparability—The questionnaire items and employment

status concepts for the 1990 census are essentially the

same as those used in the 1980 and 1970 censuses.

However, these concepts differ in many respects from

those associated with the 1950 and 1960 censuses.

Since employment data from the census are obtained

from respondents in households, they differ from statistics

based on reports from individual business establishments,

farm enterprises, and certain government programs. Persons employed at more than one job are counted only

once in the census and are classified according to the job

at which they worked the greatest number of hours during

the reference week. In statistics based on reports from

business and farm establishments, persons who work for

more than one establishment may be counted more than

once. Moreover, some tabulations may exclude private

household workers, unpaid family workers, and self-employed

persons, but may include workers less than 16 years of

age.

An additional difference in the data arises from the fact

that persons who had a job but were not at work are

included with the employed in the census statistics, whereas

many of these persons are likely to be excluded from

employment figures based on establishment payroll reports.

Furthermore, the employment status data in census tabulations include persons on the basis of place of residence

regardless of where they work, whereas establishment

data report persons at their place of work regardless of

where they live. This latter consideration is particularly

significant when comparing data for workers who commute

between areas.

Census data on actual hours worked during the reference week may differ from data from other sources. The

census measures hours actually worked, whereas some

surveys measure hours paid for by employers. Comparability of census actual hours worked data may also be

affected by the nature of the reference week (see ‘‘Reference Week’’).

For several reasons, the unemployment figures of the

Census Bureau are not comparable with published figures

on unemployment compensation claims. For example,

figures on unemployment compensation claims exclude

persons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new

workers who have not earned rights to unemployment

insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by unemployment insurance systems (including some workers in

agriculture, domestic services, and religious organizations,

and self-employed and unpaid family workers). In addition,

the qualifications for drawing unemployment compensation differ from the definition of unemployment used by the

Census Bureau. Persons working only a few hours during

the week and persons with a job but not at work are

sometimes eligible for unemployment compensation but

are classified as ‘‘Employed’’ in the census. Differences in

the geographical distribution of unemployment data arise

because the place where claims are filed may not necessarily be the same as the place of residence of the

unemployed worker.

The figures on employment status from the decennial

census are generally comparable with similar data collected in the Current Population Survey. However, some

difference may exist because of variations in enumeration

and processing techniques.

FARM POPULATION

The farm population consists of persons in households

living in farm residences. Some persons who are counted

on a property classified as a farm (including in some cases

farm workers) are excluded from the farm population. Such

persons include those who reside in multi-unit buildings or

group quarters.

The data on farm residence were obtained from questionnaire items H19a and H19b. An occupied one-family

house or mobile home is classified as a farm residence if:

(1) the housing unit is located on a property of 1 acre or

more, and (2) at least $1,000 worth of agricultural products

were sold from the property in 1989. Group quarters and

housing units that are in multi-unit buildings or vacant are

not included as farm residences.

A one-family unit occupied by a tenant household

paying cash rent for land and buildings is enumerated as a

farm residence only if sales of agricultural products from its

B–6 DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 7 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

yard (as opposed to the general property on which it is

located) amounted to at least $1,000 in 1989. A one-family

unit occupied by a tenant household that does not pay

cash rent is enumerated as a farm residence if the

remainder of the farm (including its yard) qualifies as a

farm.

Farm residence is provided as an independent data item

only for housing units located in rural areas. It may be

derived for housing units in urban areas from the data

items on acreage and sales of agricultural products on the

public-use microdata sample (PUMS) files. (For more

information on PUMS, see Appendix F, Data Products and

User Assistance.)

Comparability—These are the same criteria that were

used to define a farm residence in 1980. In 1960 and 1970,

a farm was defined as a place of 10 or more acres with at

least $50 worth of agricultural sales or a place of less than

10 acres with at least $250 worth of agricultural sales.

Earlier censuses used other definitions. Note that the

definition of a farm residence differs from the definition of

a farm in the Census of Agriculture (Factfinder for the

Nation: Agricultural Statistics, Bureau of the Census, 1989).

FERTILITY

The data on fertility (also referred to as ‘‘children ever

born’’) were derived from answers to questionnaire item

20, which was asked of a sample of women 15 years old

and over regardless of marital status. Stillbirths, stepchildren, and adopted children were excluded from the number of children ever born. Ever-married women were

instructed to include all children born to them before and

during their most recent marriage, children no longer living,

and children away from home, as well as children who

were still living in the home. Never-married women were

instructed to include all children born to them.

Data are most frequently presented in terms of the

aggregate number of children ever born to women in the

specified category and in terms of the rate per 1,000

women. For purposes of calculating the aggregate, the

open-ended response category, ‘‘12 or more’’ is assigned

a value of 13.

Limitation of the Data—Although the data are assumed

to be less complete for out-of-wedlock births than for births

occurring within marriage, comparisons of 1980 census

data on the fertility of single women with other census

sources and administrative records indicate that no significant differences were found between different data sources;

that is, 1980 census data on children ever born to single

women were complete with no significant understatements

of childbearing.

Comparability—The wording of the question on children

ever born was the same in 1990 as in 1980. In 1970,

however, the question on children ever born was asked of

all ever-married women but only of never-married women

who received self-administered questionnaires. Therefore,

rates and numbers of children ever born to single women

in 1970 may be understated. Data presented for children

ever born to ever-married women are comparable for the

1990 census and all previous censuses containing this

question.

GROUP QUARTERS

All persons not living in households are classified by the

Census Bureau as living in group quarters. Two general

categories of persons in group quarters are recognized:

(1) institutionalized persons and (2) other persons in group

quarters (also referred to as ‘‘noninstitutional group quarters’’).

Institutionalized Persons—Includes persons under formally authorized, supervised care or custody in institutions

at the time of enumeration. Such persons are classified as

‘‘patients or inmates’’ of an institution regardless of the

availability of nursing or medical care, the length of stay, or

the number of persons in the institution. Generally, institutionalized persons are restricted to the institutional buildings and grounds (or must have passes or escorts to

leave) and thus have limited interaction with the surrounding community. Also, they are generally under the care of

trained staff who have responsibility for their safekeeping

and supervision.

Type of Institution—The type of institution was determined as part of census enumeration activities. For institutions which specialize in only one specific type of service, all patients or inmates were given the same classification.

For institutions which had multiple types of major services

(usually general hospitals and Veterans’ Administration

hospitals), patients were classified according to selected

types of wards. For example, in psychiatric wards of

hospitals, patients were classified in ‘‘mental (psychiatric)

hospitals’’; in hospital wards for persons with chronic

diseases, patients were classified in ‘‘hospitals for the

chronically ill.’’ Each patient or inmate was classified in

only one type of institution. Institutions include the following types:

Correctional Institutions—Includes prisons, Federal detention centers, military stockades and jails, police lockups,

halfway houses, local jails, and other confinement facilities, including work farms.

Prisons—Where persons convicted of crimes serve

their sentences. In some census products, the prisons are classified by two types of control:

(1) ‘‘Federal’’ (operated by the Bureau of Prisons of

the Department of Justice) and (2) ‘‘State.’’ Residents who are criminally insane were classified on

the basis of where they resided at the time of

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 8 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

enumeration: (1) in institutions (or hospital wards)

operated by departments of correction or similar

agencies; or (2) in institutions operated by departments of mental health or similar agencies.

Federal Detention Centers—Operated by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and the

Bureau of Prisons. These facilities include detention

centers used by the Park Police; Bureau of Indian

Affairs Detention Centers; INS Centers, such as the

INS Federal Alien Detention Facility; INS Processing

Centers; and INS Contract Detention Centers used to

detain aliens under exclusion or deportation proceedings, as well as those aliens who have not been

placed into proceedings, such as custodial required

departures; and INS Detention Centers operated

within local jails, and State and Federal prisons.

Military Stockades, Jails—Operated by military police

and used to hold persons awaiting trial or convicted

of violating military laws.

Local Jails and Other Confinement Facilities—Includes facilities operated by counties and cities that

primarily hold persons beyond arraignment, usually

for more than 48 hours. Also included in this category

are work farms used to hold persons awaiting trial or

serving time on relatively short sentences and jails

run by private businesses under contract for local

governments (but not by State governments).

Police Lockups—Temporary-holding facilities operated by county and city police that hold persons for

48 hours or less only if they have not been formally

charged in court.

Halfway Houses—Operated for correctional purposes

and include probation and restitution centers, prerelease centers, and community-residential centers.

Other Types of Correctional Institutions—Privately

operated correctional facilities and correctional facilities specifically for alcohol/ drug abuse.

Nursing Homes—Comprises a heterogeneous group of

places. The majority of patients are elderly, although

persons who require nursing care because of chronic

physical conditions may be found in these homes

regardless of their age. Included in this category are

skilled-nursing facilities, intermediate-care facilities, longterm care rooms in wards or buildings on the grounds of

hospitals, or long-term care rooms/ nursing wings in

congregate housing facilities. Also included are nursing,

convalescent, and rest homes, such as soldiers’, sailors’, veterans’, and fraternal or religious homes for the

aged, with or without nursing care. In some census

products, nursing homes are classified by type of ownership as ‘‘Federal,’’ ‘‘State,’’ ‘‘Private not-for-profit,’’

and ‘‘Private for profit.’’

Mental (Psychiatric) Hospitals—Includes hospitals or

wards for the criminally insane not operated by a prison,

and psychiatric wards of general hospitals and veterans’

hospitals. Patients receive supervised medical/ nursing

care from formally-trained staff. In some census products, mental hospitals are classified by type of ownership as ‘‘Federal,’’ ‘‘State or local,’’ ‘‘Private,’’ and

‘‘Ownership not known.’’

Hospitals for Chronically Ill—Includes hospitals for patients

who require long-term care, including those in military

hospitals and wards for the chronically ill located on

military bases; or other hospitals or wards for the

chronically ill, which include tuberculosis hospitals or

wards, wards in general and Veterans’ Administration

hospitals for the chronically ill, neurological wards,

hospices, wards for patients with Hansen’s Disease

(leprosy) and other incurable diseases, and other unspecified wards for the chronically ill. Patients who had no

usual home elsewhere were enumerated as part of the

institutional population in the wards of general and

military hospitals. Most hospital patients are at the

hospital temporarily and were enumerated at their usual

place of residence. (For more information, see ‘‘Wards

in General and Military Hospitals for Patients Who Have

No Usual Home Elsewhere.’’)

Schools, Hospitals, or Wards for the Mentally Retarded—Includes those institutions such as wards in hospitals for the mentally retarded, and intermediate-care

facilities for the mentally retarded that provide supervised medical/ nursing care from formally-trained staff.

In some census products, this category is classified by

type of ownership as ‘‘Federal,’’ ‘‘State or local,’’ ‘‘Private,’’ and ‘‘Ownership not known.’’

Schools, Hospitals, or Wards for the Physically Handicapped—Includes three types of institutions: institutions

for the blind, those for the deaf, and orthopedic wards

and institutions for the physically handicapped. Institutions for persons with speech problems are classified

with ‘‘institutions for the deaf.’’ The category ‘‘orthopedic wards and institutions for the physically handicapped’’ includes those institutions providing relatively

long-term care to accident victims, and to persons with

polio, cerebral palsy, and muscular dystrophy. In some

census products, this category is classified by type of

ownership as ‘‘Public,’’ ‘‘Private,’’ and ‘‘Ownership not

known.’’

Hospitals, and Wards for Drug/ Alcohol Abuse—Includes

hospitals, and hospital wards in psychiatric and general

hospitals. These facilities are equipped medically and

designed for the diagnosis and treatment of medical or

psychiatric illnesses associated with alcohol or drug

abuse. Patients receive supervised medical care from

formally-trained staff.

Wards in General and Military Hospitals for Patients

Who Have No Usual Home Elsewhere—Includes maternity, neonatal, pediatric (including wards for boarder

babies), military, and surgical wards of hospitals, and

wards for persons with infectious diseases.

Juvenile Institutions—Includes homes, schools, and other

institutions providing care for children (short- or longterm care). Juvenile institutions include the following

types:

Homes for Abused, Dependent, and Neglected Children—Includes orphanages and other institutions

which provide long-term care (usually more than 30

days) for children. This category is classified in some

census products by type of ownership as ‘‘Public’’

and ‘‘Private.’’

Residential Treatment Centers—Includes those institutions which primarily serve children who, by clinical

diagnosis, are moderately or seriously disturbed emotionally. Also, these institutions provide long-term

treatment services, usually supervised or directed by

a psychiatrist.

Training Schools for Juvenile Delinquents—Includes

residential training schools or homes, and industrial

schools, camps, or farms for juvenile delinquents.

Public Training Schools for Juvenile Delinquents—

Usually operated by a State agency (for example,

department of welfare, corrections, or a youth

authority). Some are operated by county and city

governments. These public training schools are

specialized institutions serving delinquent children,

generally between the ages of 10 and 17 years

old, all of whom are committed by the courts.

Private Training Schools—Operated under private

auspices. Some of the children they serve are

committed by the courts as delinquents. Others

are referred by parents or social agencies because

of delinquent behavior. One difference between

private and public training schools is that, by their

administrative policy, private schools have control

over their selection and intake.

Detention Centers—Includes institutions providing shortterm care (usually 30 days or less) primarily for

delinquent children pending disposition of their cases

by a court. This category also covers diagnostic

centers. In practice, such institutions may be caring

for both delinquent and neglected children pending

court disposition.

Other Persons in Group Quarters (also referred to as

‘‘noninstitutional group quarters’’)—Includes all persons who live in group quarters other than institutions.

Persons who live in the following living quarters are

classified as ‘‘other persons in group quarters’’ when there

are 10 or more unrelated persons living in the unit;

otherwise, these living quarters are classified as housing

units.

Rooming Houses—Includes persons residing in rooming and boarding houses and living in quarters with 10 or

more unrelated persons.

Group Homes—Includes ‘‘community-based homes’’

that provide care and supportive services. Such places

include homes for the mentally ill, mentally retarded,

and physically handicapped; drug/ alcohol halfway houses;

communes; and maternity homes for unwed mothers.

Homes for the Mentally Ill—Includes communitybased homes that provide care primarily for the

mentally ill. In some data products, this category is

classified by type of ownership as ‘‘Federal,’’ ‘‘State,’’

‘‘Private,’’ and ‘‘Ownership not known.’’ Homes which

combine treatment of the physically handicapped

with treatment of the mentally ill are counted as

homes for the mentally ill.

Homes for the Mentally Retarded—Includes communitybased homes that provide care primarily for the

mentally retarded. Homes which combine treatment

of the physically handicapped with treatment of the

mentally retarded are counted as homes for the

mentally retarded. This category is classified by type

of ownership in some census products, as ‘‘Federal,’’

‘‘State,’’ ‘‘Private,’’ or ‘‘Ownership not known.’’

Homes for the Physically Handicapped—Includes

community-based homes for the blind, for the deaf,

and other community-based homes for the physically

handicapped. Persons with speech problems are

classified with homes for the deaf. In some census

products, this category is classified by type of ownership as ‘‘Public,’’ ‘‘Private,’’ or ‘‘Ownership not

known.’’

Homes or Halfway Houses for Drug/ Alcohol Abuse—Includes persons with no usual home elsewhere in

places that provide community-based care and supportive services to persons suffering from a drug/ alcohol addiction and to recovering alcoholics and drug

abusers. Places providing community-based care for

drug and alcohol abusers include group homes,

detoxification centers, quarterway houses (residential treatment facilities that work closely with accredited hospitals), halfway houses, and recovery homes

for ambulatory, mentally competent recovering alcoholics and drug abusers who may be re-entering the

work force.

Maternity Homes for Unwed Mothers—Includes persons with no usual home elsewhere in places that

provide domestic care for unwed mothers and their

children. These homes may provide social services

and post-natal care within the facility, or may make

arrangements for women to receive such services in

the community. Nursing services are usually available

in the facility.

Other Group Homes—Includes persons with no usual

home elsewhere in communes, foster care homes,

and job corps centers with 10 or more unrelated

persons. These types of places provide communal

living quarters, generally for persons who have formed

their own community in which they have common

interests and often share or own property jointly.

Religious Group Quarters—Includes, primarily, group

quarters for nuns teaching in parochial schools and for

priests living in rectories. It also includes other convents

and monasteries, except those associated with a general hospital or an institution.

College Quarters Off Campus—Includes privately-owned

rooming and boarding houses off campus, if the place is

reserved exclusively for occupancy by college students

and if there are 10 or more unrelated persons. In census

products, persons in this category are classified as living

in a college dormitory.

Persons residing in certain other types of living arrangements are classified as living in ‘‘noninstitutional group

quarters’’ regardless of the number of people sharing the

unit. These include persons residing in the following types

of group quarters:

College Dormitories—Includes college students in dormitories (provided the dormitory is restricted to students

who do not have their families living with them), fraternity and sorority houses, and on-campus residential

quarters used exclusively for those in religious orders

who are attending college. Students in privately-owned

rooming and boarding houses off campus are also

included, if the place is reserved exclusively for occupancy by college-level students and if there are 10 or

more unrelated persons.

Military Quarters—Includes military personnel living in

barracks and dormitories on base, in transient quarters

on base for temporary residents (both civilian and

military), and on military ships. However, patients in

military hospitals receiving treatment for chronic diseases or who had no usual home elsewhere, and

persons being held in military stockades were included

as part of the institutional population.

Agriculture Workers’ Dormitories—Includes persons in

migratory farm workers’ camps on farms, bunkhouses

for ranch hands, and other dormitories on farms, such

as those on ‘‘tree farms.’’

Other Workers’ Dormitories—Includes persons in logging camps, construction workers’ camps, firehouse

dormitories, job-training camps, energy enclaves (Alaska

only), and nonfarm migratory workers’ camps (for example, workers in mineral and mining camps).

Emergency Shelters for Homeless Persons (with sleeping facilities) and Visible in Street Locations—Includes

persons enumerated during the ‘‘Shelter-and-StreetNight’’ operation primarily on March 20-21, 1990. Enumerators were instructed not to ask if a person was

‘‘homeless.’’ If a person was at one of the locations

below on March 20-21, the person was counted as

described below. (For more information on the ‘‘Shelterand-Street-Night’’ operation, see Appendix D, Collection and Processing Procedures.) This category is divided

into four classifications:

Emergency Shelters for Homeless Persons (with

sleeping facilities)—Includes persons who stayed

overnight on March 20, 1990, in permanent and

temporary emergency housing, missions, hotels/ motels, and flophouses charging $12 or less (excluding

taxes) per night; Salvation Army shelters, hotels, and

motels used entirely for homeless persons regardless of the nightly rate charged; rooms in hotels and

motels used partially for the homeless; and similar

places known to have persons who have no usual

home elsewhere staying overnight. If not shown

separately, shelters and group homes that provide

temporary sleeping facilities for runaway, neglected,

and homeless children are included in this category

in data products.

Shelters for Runaway, Neglected, and Homeless

Children—Includes shelters/ group homes which provide temporary sleeping facilities for juveniles.

Visible in Street Locations—Includes street blocks

and open public locations designated before

March 20, 1990, by city and community officials as

places where the homeless congregate at night. All

persons found at predesignated street sites from 2

a.m. to 4 a.m. and leaving abandoned or boarded-up

buildings from 4 a.m. to 8 a.m. on March 21, 1990,

were enumerated during ‘‘street’’ enumeration, except

persons in uniform such as police and persons

engaged in obvious money-making activities other

than begging or panhandling. Enumerators were

instructed not to ask if a person was ‘‘homeless.’’

This cannot be considered a complete count of all

persons living on the streets because those who

were so well hidden that local people did not know

where to find them were likely to have been missed

as were persons moving about or in places not

identified by local officials. It is also possible that

persons with homes could have been included in the

count of ‘‘visible in street locations’’ if they were

present when the enumerator did the enumeration of

a particular block.

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 11 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

Predesignated street sites include street corners,

parks, bridges, persons emerging from abandoned

and boarded-up buildings, noncommercial campsites

(tent cities), all-night movie theaters, all-night restaurants, emergency hospital waiting rooms, train stations, airports, bus depots, and subway stations.

Shelters for Abused Women (Shelters Against Domestic Violence or Family Crisis Centers)—Includes

community-based homes or shelters that provide

domiciliary care for women who have sought shelter

from family violence and who may have been physically abused. Most shelters also provide care for

children of abused women. These shelters may provide social services, meals, psychiatric treatment,

and counseling. In some census products, ‘‘shelters

for abused women’’ are included in the category

‘‘other noninstitutional group quarters.’’

Dormitories for Nurses and Interns in General and

Military Hospitals—Includes group quarters for nurses

and other staff members. It excludes patients.

Crews of Maritime Vessels—Includes officers, crew

members, and passengers of maritime U.S. flag vessels. All ocean-going and Great Lakes ships are included.

Staff Residents of Institutions—Includes staff residing in

group quarters on institutional grounds who provide

formally-authorized, supervised care or custody for the

institutionalized population.

Other Nonhousehold Living Situations—Includes persons with no usual home elsewhere enumerated during

transient or ‘‘T-Night’’ enumeration at YMCA’s, YWCA’s,

youth hostels, commercial and government-run campgrounds, campgrounds at racetracks, fairs, and carnivals, and similar transient sites.

Living Quarters for Victims of Natural Disasters—Includes living quarters for persons temporarily displaced

by natural disasters.

Limitation of the Data—Two types of errors can occur in

the classification of ‘‘types of group quarters’’:

1. Misclassification of Group Quarters—During the 1990

Special Place Prelist operation, the enumerator determined the type of group quarters associated with each

special place in their assignment. The enumerator

used the Alphabetical Group Quarters Code List and

Index to the Alphabetical Group Quarters Code List to

assign a two-digit code number followed by either an

‘‘I,’’ for institutional, or an ‘‘N,’’ for noninstitutional to

each group quarters. In 1990, unacceptable group

quarter codes were edited. (For more information on

editing of unacceptable data, see Appendix C, Accuracy of the Data.)

2. No Classification (unknowns)—The imputation rate for

type of institution was higher in 1980 (23.5 percent)

than in 1970 (3.3 percent). Improvements were made

to the 1990 Alphabetical Group Quarters Code List;

that is, the inclusion of more group quarters categories

and an ‘‘Index to the Alphabetical Group Quarters

Code List.’’ (For more information on the allocation

rates for Type of Institution, see the allocation rates in

1990 CP-1, General Population Characteristics.)

In previous censuses, allocation rates for demographic

characteristics (such as age, sex, race, and marital status)

of the institutional population were similar to those for the

total population. The allocation rates for sample characteristics such as school enrollment, highest grade completed, income, and veteran status for the institutional and

noninstitutional group quarters population have been substantially higher than the population in households at least

as far back as the 1960 census. The data, however, have

historically presented a reasonable picture of the institutional and noninstitutional group quarters population.

Shelter and Street Night (S-Night)—For the 1990 census

‘‘Shelter-and-Street-Night’’ operation, persons well hidden, moving about, or in locations enumerators did not visit

were likely to be missed. The number of people missed will

never be known; thus, the 1990 census cannot be considered to include a definitive count of America’s total homeless population. It does, however, give an idea of relative

differences among areas of the country. Other components were counted as part of regular census procedures.

The count of persons in shelters and visible on the

street could have been affected by many factors. How

much the factors affected the count can never be answered

definitively, but some elements include:

1. How well enumerators were trained and how well they

followed procedures.

2. How well the list of shelter and street locations given

to the Census Bureau by the local government reflected

the actual places that homeless persons stay at night.

3. Cities were encouraged to open temporary shelters for

census night, and many did that and actively encouraged people to enter the shelters. Thus, people who

may have been on the street otherwise were in

shelters the night of March 20, so that the ratio of

shelter-to-street population could be different than

usual.

4. The weather, which was unusually cold in some parts

of the country, could affect how likely people were to

seek emergency shelter or to be more hidden than

usual if they stayed outdoors.

5. The media occasionally interfered with the ability to do

the count.

6. How homeless people perceived the census and

whether they wanted to be counted or feared the

census and hid from it.

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–11
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 12 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

The Census Bureau conducted two assessments of

Shelter and Street Night: (1) the quality of the lists of

shelters used for the Shelter-and-Street-Night operation,

and (2) how well procedures were followed by censustakers for the street count in parts of five cities (Chicago,

Los Angeles, New Orleans, New York, and Phoenix).

Information about these two assessments is available from

the Chief, Center for Survey Methods Research, Bureau of

the Census, Washington, DC 20233.

Comparability—For the 1990 census, the definition of

institutionalized persons was revised so that the definition

of ‘‘care’’ only includes persons under organized medical

or formally-authorized, supervised care or custody. As a

result of this change to the institutional definition, maternity

homes are classified as noninstitutional rather than institutional group quarters as in previous censuses. The

following types of other group quarters are classified as

institutional rather than noninstitutional group quarters:

‘‘halfway houses (operated for correctional purposes)’’

and ‘‘wards in general and military hospitals for patients

who have no usual home elsewhere,’’ which includes

maternity, neonatal, pediatric, military, and surgical wards

of hospitals, other-purpose wards of hospitals, and wards

for infectious diseases. These changes should not significantly affect the comparability of data with earlier censuses because of the relatively small number of persons

involved.

As in 1980, 10 or more unrelated persons living together

were classified as living in noninstitutional group quarters.

In 1970, the criteria was six or more unrelated persons.

Several changes also have occurred in the identification

of specific types of group quarters. For the first time, the

1990 census identifies separately the following types of

correctional institutions: persons in halfway houses (operated for correctional purposes), military stockades and

jails, and police lockups. In 1990, tuberculosis hospitals or

wards are included with hospitals for the chronically ill; in

1980, they were shown separately. For 1990, the noninstitutional group quarters category, ‘‘Group homes’’ is further

classified as: group homes for drug/ alcohol abuse; maternity homes (for unwed mothers), group homes for the

mentally ill, group homes for the mentally retarded, and

group homes for the physically handicapped. Persons

living in communes, foster-care homes, and job corps

centers are classified with ‘‘Other group homes’’ only if 10

or more unrelated persons share the unit; otherwise, they

are classified as housing units.

In 1990, workers’ dormitories were classified as group

quarters regardless of the number of persons sharing the

dorm. In 1980, 10 or more unrelated persons had to share

the dorm for it to be classified as a group quarters. In 1960,

data on persons in military barracks were shown only for

men. In subsequent censuses, they include both men and

women.

In 1990 census data products, the phrase ‘‘inmates of

institutions’’ was changed to ‘‘institutionalized persons.’’

Also, persons living in noninstitutional group quarters were

referred to as ‘‘other persons in group quarters,’’ and the

phrase ‘‘staff residents’’ was used for staff living in institutions.

In 1990, there are additional institutional categories and

noninstitutional group quarters categories compared with

the 1980 census. The institutional categories added include

‘‘hospitals and wards for drug/ alcohol abuse’’ and ‘‘military hospitals for the chronically ill.’’ The noninstitutional

group quarters categories added include emergency shelters for homeless persons; shelters for runaway, neglected,

and homeless children; shelters for abused women; and

visible-in-street locations. Each of these noninstitutional

group quarters categories was enumerated on March

20-21, 1990, during the ‘‘Shelter-and-Street-Night’’ operation. (For more information on the ‘‘Shelter-and-StreetNight’’ operation, see Appendix D, Collection and Processing Procedures.)

HISPANIC ORIGIN

The data on Spanish/ Hispanic origin were derived from

answers to questionnaire item 7, which was asked of all

persons. Persons of Hispanic origin are those who classified themselves in one of the specific Hispanic origin

categories listed on the questionnaire—‘‘Mexican,’’ ‘‘Puerto

Rican,’’ or ‘‘Cuban’’—as well as those who indicated that

they were of ‘‘other Spanish/ Hispanic’’ origin. Persons of

‘‘Other Spanish/ Hispanic’’ origin are those whose origins

are from Spain, the Spanish-speaking countries of Central

or South America, or the Dominican Republic, or they are

persons of Hispanic origin identifying themselves generally

as Spanish, Spanish-American, Hispanic, Hispano, Latino,

and so on. Write-in responses to the ‘‘other Spanish/ Hispanic’’ category were coded only for sample data.

Origin can be viewed as the ancestry, nationality group,

lineage, or country of birth of the person or the person’s

parents or ancestors before their arrival in the United

States. Persons of Hispanic origin may be of any race.

Some tabulations are shown by the Hispanic origin of

the householder. In all cases where households, families,

or occupied housing units are classified by Hispanic origin,

the Hispanic origin of the householder is used. (See the

discussion of householder under ‘‘Household Type and

Relationship.’’)

During direct interviews conducted by enumerators, if a

person could not provide a single origin response, he or

she was asked to select, based on self-identification, the

group which best described his or her origin or descent. If

a person could not provide a single group, the origin of the

person’s mother was used. If a single group could not be

provided for the person’s mother, the first origin reported

by the person was used.

If any household member failed to respond to the

Spanish/ Hispanic origin question, a response was assigned

by the computer according to the reported entries of other

household members by using specific rules of precedence

of household relationship. In the processing of sample

B–12 DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 13 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

questionnaires, responses to other questions on the questionnaire, such as ancestry and place of birth, were used to

assign an origin before any reference was made to the

origin reported by other household members. If an origin

was not entered for any household member, an origin was

assigned from another household according to the race of

the householder. This procedure is a variation of the

general imputation process described in Appendix C, Accuracy of the Data.

Comparability—There may be differences between the

total Hispanic origin population based on 100-percent

tabulations and sample tabulations. Such differences are

the result of sampling variability, nonsampling error, and

more extensive edit procedures for the Spanish/ Hispanic

origin item on the sample questionnaires. (For more information on sampling variability and nonsampling error, see

Appendix C, Accuracy of the Data.)

The 1990 data on Hispanic origin are generally comparable with those for the 1980 census. However, there are

some differences in the format of the Hispanic origin

question between the two censuses. For 1990, the word

‘‘descent’’ was deleted from the 1980 wording. In addition,

the term ‘‘Mexican-Amer.’’ used in 1980 was shortened

further to ‘‘Mexican-Am.’’ to reduce misreporting (of ‘‘American’’) in this category detected in the 1980 census. Finally,

the 1990 question allowed those who reported as ‘‘other

Spanish/ Hispanic’’ to write in their specific Hispanic origin

group.

Misreporting in the ‘‘Mexican-Amer.’’ category of the

1980 census item on Spanish/ Hispanic origin may affect

the comparability of 1980 and 1990 census data for

persons of Hispanic origin for certain areas of the country.

An evaluation of the 1980 census item on Spanish/ Hispanic origin indicated that there was misreporting in the

Mexican origin category by White and Black persons in

certain areas. The study results showed evidence that the

misreporting occurred in the South (excluding Texas), the

Northeast (excluding the New York City area), and a few

States in the Midwest Region. Also, results based on

available data suggest that the impact of possible misreporting of Mexican origin in the 1980 census was severe in

those portions of the above-mentioned regions where the

Hispanic origin population was generally sparse. However,

national 1980 census data on the Mexican origin population or total Hispanic origin population at the national level

was not seriously affected by the reporting problem. (For a

more detailed discussion of the evaluation of the 1980

census Spanish/ Hispanic origin item, see the 1980 census

Supplementary Reports.)

The 1990 and 1980 census data on the Hispanic

population are not directly comparable with 1970 Spanish

origin data because of a number of factors: (1) overall

improvements in the 1980 and 1990 censuses, (2) better

coverage of the population, (3) improved question designs,

and (4) an effective public relations campaign by the

Census Bureau with the assistance of national and community ethnic groups.

Specific changes in question design between the 1980

and 1970 censuses included the placement of the category ‘‘No, not Spanish/ Hispanic’’ as the first category in

that question. (The corresponding category appeared last

in the 1970 question.) Also, the 1970 category ‘‘Central or

South American’’ was deleted because in 1970 some

respondents misinterpreted the category; furthermore, the

designations ‘‘Mexican-American’’ and ‘‘Chicano’’ were

added to the Spanish/ Hispanic origin question in 1980. In

the 1970 census, the question on Spanish origin was

asked of only a 5-percent sample of the population.

HOUSEHOLD TYPE AND RELATIONSHIP

Household

A household includes all the persons who occupy a

housing unit. A housing unit is a house, an apartment, a

mobile home, a group of rooms, or a single room that is

occupied (or if vacant, is intended for occupancy) as

separate living quarters. Separate living quarters are those

in which the occupants live and eat separately from any

other persons in the building and which have direct access

from the outside of the building or through a common hall.

The occupants may be a single family, one person living

alone, two or more families living together, or any other

group of related or unrelated persons who share living

arrangements.

In 100-percent tabulations, the count of households or

householders always equals the count of occupied housing units. In sample tabulations, the numbers may differ as

a result of the weighting process.

Persons Per Household—A measure obtained by dividing the number of persons in households by the number of

households (or householders). In cases where persons in

households are cross-classified by race or Hispanic origin,

persons in the household are classified by the race or

Hispanic origin of the householder rather than the race or

Hispanic origin of each individual.

Relationship to Householder

Householder—The data on relationship to householder

were derived from answers to questionnaire item 2, which

was asked of all persons in housing units. One person in

each household is designated as the householder. In most

cases, this is the person, or one of the persons, in whose

name the home is owned, being bought, or rented and who

is listed in column 1 of the census questionnaire. If there is

no such person in the household, any adult household

member 15 years old and over could be designated as the

householder.

Households are classified by type according to the sex

of the householder and the presence of relatives. Two

types of householders are distinguished: a family householder and a nonfamily householder. A family householder

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 14 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

is a householder living with one or more persons related to

him or her by birth, marriage, or adoption. The householder

and all persons in the household related to him or her are

family members. A nonfamily householder is a householder living alone or with nonrelatives only.

Spouse—Includes a person married to and living with a

householder. This category includes persons in formal

marriages, as well as persons in common-law marriages.

The number of spouses is equal to the number of

‘‘married-couple families’’ or ‘‘married-couple households’’

in 100-percent tabulations. The number of spouses, however, is generally less than half of the number of ‘‘married

persons with spouse present’’ in sample tabulations, since

more than one married couple can live in a household, but

only spouses of householders are specifically identified as

‘‘spouse.’’ For sample tabulations, the number of ‘‘married

persons with spouse present’’ includes married-couple

subfamilies and married-couple families.

Child—Includes a son or daughter by birth, a stepchild, or

adopted child of the householder, regardless of the child’s

age or marital status. The category excludes sons-in-law,

daughters-in-law, and foster children.

Natural-Born or Adopted Son/ Daughter—A son or daughter of the householder by birth, regardless of the age of

the child. Also, this category includes sons or daughters

of the householder by legal adoption, regardless of the

age of the child. If the stepson/ stepdaughter of the

householder has been legally adopted by the householder, the child is still classified as a stepchild.

Stepson/ Stepdaughter—A son or daughter of the householder through marriage but not by birth, regardless of

the age of the child. If the stepson/ stepdaughter of the

householder has been legally adopted by the householder, the child is still classified as a stepchild.

Own Child—A never-married child under 18 years who

is a son or daughter by birth, a stepchild, or an adopted

child of the householder. In certain tabulations, own

children are further classified as living with two parents

or with one parent only. Own children of the householder living with two parents are by definition found

only in married-couple families.

In a subfamily, an ‘‘own child’’ is a never-married

child under 18 years of age who is a son, daughter,

stepchild, or an adopted child of a mother in a motherchild subfamily, a father in a father-child subfamily, or

either spouse in a married-couple subfamily.

‘‘Related children’’ in a family include own children and

all other persons under 18 years of age in the household,

regardless of marital status, who are related to the householder, except the spouse of the householder. Foster

children are not included since they are not related to the

householder.

Other Relatives—In tabulations, includes any household

member related to the householder by birth, marriage, or

adoption, but not included specifically in another relationship category. In certain detailed tabulations, the following

categories may be shown:

Grandchild—The grandson or granddaughter of the

householder.

Brother/ Sister—The brother or sister of the householder, including stepbrothers, stepsisters, and brothers

and sisters by adoption. Brothers-in-law and sisters-inlaw are included in the ‘‘Other relative’’ category on the

questionnaire.

Parent—The father or mother of the householder, including a stepparent or adoptive parent. Fathers-in-law and

mothers-in-law are included in the ‘‘Other relative’’

category on the questionnaire.

Other Relatives—Anyone not listed in a reported category above who is related to the householder by birth,

marriage, or adoption (brother-in-law, grandparent, nephew,

aunt, mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, cousin, and so

forth).

Nonrelatives—Includes any household member, including

foster children not related to the householder by birth,

marriage, or adoption. The following categories may be

presented in more detailed tabulations:

Roomer, Boarder, or Foster Child—Roomer, boarder,

lodger, and foster children or foster adults of the

householder.

Housemate or Roommate—A person who is not related

to the householder and who shares living quarters

primarily in order to share expenses.

Unmarried Partner—A person who is not related to the

householder, who shares living quarters, and who has a

close personal relationship with the householder.

Other Nonrelatives—A person who is not related by

birth, marriage, or adoption to the householder and who

is not described by the categories given above.

When relationship is not reported for an individual, it is

imputed according to the responses for age, sex, and

marital status for that person while maintaining consistency with responses for other individuals in the household. (For more information on imputation, see Appendix

C, Accuracy of the Data.)

Unrelated Individual

An unrelated individual is: (1) a householder living alone

or with nonrelatives only, (2) a household member who is

not related to the householder, or (3) a person living in

group quarters who is not an inmate of an institution.

Family Type

A family consists of a householder and one or more

other persons living in the same household who are

related to the householder by birth, marriage, or adoption.

All persons in a household who are related to the householder are regarded as members of his or her family. A

household can contain only one family for purposes of

census tabulations. Not all households contain families

since a household may comprise a group of unrelated

persons or one person living alone.

Families are classified by type as either a ‘‘marriedcouple family’’ or ‘‘other family’’ according to the sex of the

householder and the presence of relatives. The data on

family type are based on answers to questions on sex and

relationship which were asked on a 100-percent basis.

Married-Couple Family—A family in which the householder and his or her spouse are enumerated as members of the same household.

Other Family:

Male Householder, No Wife Present—A family with a

male householder and no spouse of householder present.

Female Householder, No Husband Present—A family

with a female householder and no spouse of householder present.

Persons Per Family—A measure obtained by dividing the

number of persons in families by the total number of

families (or family householders). In cases where the

measure, ‘‘persons in family’’ or ‘‘persons per family’’ are

cross-tabulated by race or Hispanic origin, the race or

Hispanic origin refers to the householder rather than the

race or Hispanic origin of each individual.

Subfamily

A subfamily is a married couple (husband and wife

enumerated as members of the same household) with or

without never-married children under 18 years old, or one

parent with one or more never-married children under 18

years old, living in a household and related to, but not

including, either the householder or the householder’s

spouse. The number of subfamilies is not included in the

count of families, since subfamily members are counted as

part of the householder’s family.

Subfamilies are defined during processing of sample

data. In selected tabulations, subfamilies are further classified by type: married-couple subfamilies, with or without

own children; mother-child subfamilies; and father-child

subfamilies.

Lone parents include people maintaining either oneparent families or one-parent subfamilies. Married couples

include husbands and wives in both married-couple families and married-couple subfamilies.

Unmarried-Partner Household

An unmarried-partner household is a household other

than a ‘‘married-couple household’’ that includes a householder and an ‘‘unmarried partner.’’ An ‘‘unmarried partner’’ can be of the same sex or of the opposite sex of the

householder. An ‘‘unmarried partner’’ in an ‘‘unmarriedpartner household’’ is an adult who is unrelated to the

householder, but shares living quarters and has a close

personal relationship with the householder.

Unmarried-Couple Household

An unmarried-couple household is composed of two

unrelated adults of the opposite sex (one of whom is the

householder) who share a housing unit with or without the

presence of children under 15 years old.

Foster Children

Foster children are nonrelatives of the householder and

are included in the category, ‘‘Roomer, boarder, or foster

child’’ on the questionnaire. Foster children are identified

as persons under 18 years old and living in households

that have no nonrelatives 18 years old and over (who might

be parents of the nonrelatives under 18 years old).

Stepfamily

A stepfamily is a ‘‘married-couple family’’ with at least

one stepchild of the householder present, where the

householder is the husband.

Comparability—The 1990 definition of a household is the

same as that used in 1980. The 1980 relationship category

‘‘Son/ daughter’’ has been replaced by two categories,

‘‘Natural-born or adopted son/ daughter’’ and ‘‘Stepson/

stepdaughter.’’ ‘‘Grandchild’’ has been added as a separate category. The 1980 nonrelative categories: ‘‘Roomer,

boarder’’ and ‘‘Partner, roommate’’ have been replaced by

the categories ‘‘Roomer, boarder, or foster child,’’ ‘‘Housemate, roommate,’’ and ‘‘Unmarried partner.’’ The 1980

nonrelative category ‘‘Paid employee’’ has been dropped.

INCOME IN 1989

The data on income in 1989 were derived from answers

to questionnaire items 32 and 33. Information on money

income received in the calendar year 1989 was requested

from persons 15 years old and over. ‘‘Total income’’ is the

algebraic sum of the amounts reported separately for

wage or salary income; net nonfarm self-employment

income; net farm self-employment income; interest, dividend, or net rental or royalty income; Social Security or

railroad retirement income; public assistance or welfare

income; retirement or disability income; and all other

income. ‘‘Earnings’’ is defined as the algebraic sum of

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 16 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

wage or salary income and net income from farm and

nonfarm self-employment. ‘‘Earnings’’ represent the amount

of income received regularly before deductions for personal income taxes, Social Security, bond purchases,

union dues, medicare deductions, etc.

Receipts from the following sources are not included as

income: money received from the sale of property (unless

the recipient was engaged in the business of selling such

property); the value of income ‘‘in kind’’ from food stamps,

public housing subsidies, medical care, employer contributions for persons, etc.; withdrawal of bank deposits; money

borrowed; tax refunds; exchange of money between relatives living in the same household; gifts and lump-sum

inheritances, insurance payments, and other types of

lump-sum receipts.

Income Type in 1989

The eight types of income reported in the census are

defined as follows:

1. Wage or Salary Income—Includes total money earnings received for work performed as an employee

during the calendar year 1989. It includes wages,

salary, Armed Forces pay, commissions, tips, piecerate payments, and cash bonuses earned before

deductions were made for taxes, bonds, pensions,

union dues, etc.

2. Nonfarm Self-Employment Income—Includes net money

income (gross receipts minus expenses) from one’s

own business, professional enterprise, or partnership.

Gross receipts include the value of all goods sold and

services rendered. Expenses includes costs of goods

purchased, rent, heat, light, power, depreciation charges,

wages and salaries paid, business taxes (not personal

income taxes), etc.

3. Farm Self-Employment Income—Includes net money

income (gross receipts minus operating expenses)

from the operation of a farm by a person on his or her

own account, as an owner, renter, or sharecropper.

Gross receipts include the value of all products sold,

government farm programs, money received from the

rental of farm equipment to others, and incidental

receipts from the sale of wood, sand, gravel, etc.

Operating expenses include cost of feed, fertilizer,

seed, and other farming supplies, cash wages paid to

farmhands, depreciation charges, cash rent, interest

on farm mortgages, farm building repairs, farm taxes

(not State and Federal personal income taxes), etc.

The value of fuel, food, or other farm products used for

family living is not included as part of net income.

4. Interest, Dividend, or Net Rental Income—Includes

interest on savings or bonds, dividends from stockholdings or membership in associations, net income

from rental of property to others and receipts from

boarders or lodgers, net royalties, and periodic payments from an estate or trust fund.

5. Social Security Income—Includes Social Security pensions and survivors benefits and permanent disability

insurance payments made by the Social Security

Administration prior to deductions for medical insurance, and railroad retirement insurance checks from

the U.S. Government. Medicare reimbursements are

not included.

6. Public Assistance Income—Includes: (1) supplementary security income payments made by Federal or

State welfare agencies to low income persons who are

aged (65 years old or over), blind, or disabled; (2) aid

to families with dependent children, and (3) general

assistance. Separate payments received for hospital

or other medical care (vendor payments) are excluded

from this item.

7. Retirement or Disability Income—Includes: (1) retirement pensions and survivor benefits from a former

employer, labor union, or Federal, State, county, or

other governmental agency; (2) disability income from

sources such as worker’s compensation; companies

or unions; Federal, State, or local government; and the

U.S. military; (3) periodic receipts from annuities and

insurance; and (4) regular income from IRA and KEOGH

plans.

8. All Other Income—Includes unemployment compensation, Veterans Administration (VA) payments, alimony and child support, contributions received periodically from persons not living in the household, military

family allotments, net gambling winnings, and other

kinds of periodic income other than earnings.

Income of Households—Includes the income of the

householder and all other persons 15 years old and over in

the household, whether related to the householder or not.

Because many households consist of only one person,

average household income is usually less than average

family income.

Income of Families and Persons—In compiling statistics

on family income, the incomes of all members 15 years old

and over in each family are summed and treated as a

single amount. However, for persons 15 years old and

over, the total amounts of their own incomes are used.

Although the income statistics covered the calendar year

1989, the characteristics of persons and the composition

of families refer to the time of enumeration (April 1990).

Thus, the income of the family does not include amounts

received by persons who were members of the family

during all or part of the calendar year 1989 if these persons

no longer resided with the family at the time of enumeration. Yet, family income amounts reported by related

persons who did not reside with the family during 1989 but

who were members of the family at the time of enumeration are included. However, the composition of most

families was the same during 1989 as in April 1990.

Median Income—The median divides the income distribution into two equal parts, one having incomes above the

median and the other having incomes below the median.

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 17 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

For households and families, the median income is based

on the distribution of the total number of units including

those with no income. The median for persons is based on

persons with income. The median income values for all

households, families, and persons are computed on the

basis of more detailed income intervals than shown in

most tabulations. Median household or family income

figures of $50,000 or less are calculated using linear

interpolation. For persons, corresponding median values

of $40,000 or less are also computed using linear interpolation. All other median income amounts are derived

through Pareto interpolation. (For more information on

medians and interpolation, see the discussion under ‘‘Derived

Measures.’’)

Mean Income—This is the amount obtained by dividing

the total income of a particular statistical universe by the

number of units in that universe. Thus, mean household

income is obtained by dividing total household income by

the total number of households. For the various types of

income the means are based on households having those

types of income. ‘‘Per capita income’’ is the mean income

computed for every man, woman, and child in a particular

group. It is derived by dividing the total income of a

particular group by the total population in that group.

Care should be exercised in using and interpreting mean

income values for small subgroups of the population.

Because the mean is influenced strongly by extreme

values in the distribution, it is especially susceptible to the

effects of sampling variability, misreporting, and processing errors. The median, which is not affected by extreme

values, is, therefore, a better measure than the mean when

the population base is small. The mean, nevertheless, is

shown in some data products for most small subgroups

because, when weighted according to the number of

cases, the means can be added to obtained summary

measures for areas and groups other than those shown in

census tabulations.

Limitation of the Data—Since questionnaire entries for

income frequently are based on memory and not on

records, many persons tended to forget minor or irregular

sources of income and, therefore, underreport their income.

Underreporting tends to be more pronounced for income

sources that are not derived from earnings, such as Social

Security, public assistance, or from interest, dividends, and

net rental income.

There are errors of reporting due to the misunderstanding of the income questions such as reporting gross rather

than net dollar amounts for the two questions on net

self-employment income, which resulted in an overstatement of these items. Another common error is the reporting of identical dollar amounts in two of the eight type of

income items where a respondent with only one source of

income assumed that the second amount should be

entered to represent total income. Such instances of

overreporting had an impact on the level of mean nonfarm

or farm self-employment income and mean total income

published for the various geographical subdivisions of the

State.

Extensive computer editing procedures were instituted

in the data processing operation to reduce some of these

reporting errors and to improve the accuracy of the income

data. These procedures corrected various reporting deficiencies and improved the consistency of reported income

items associated with work experience and information on

occupation and class of worker. For example, if persons

reported they were self-employed on their own farm, not

incorporated, but had reported wage and salary earnings

only, the latter amount was shifted to net farm selfemployment income. Also, if any respondent reported total

income only, the amount was generally assigned to one of

the type of income items according to responses to the

work experience and class-of-worker questions. Another

type of problem involved nonreporting of income data.

Where income information was not reported, procedures

were devised to impute appropriate values with either no

income or positive or negative dollar amounts for the

missing entries. (For more information on imputation, see

Appendix C, Accuracy of the Data.)

In income tabulations for households and families, the

lowest income group (e.g., less than $5,000) includes units

that were classified as having no 1989 income. Many of

these were living on income ‘‘in kind,’’ savings, or gifts,

were newly created families, or families in which the sole

breadwinner had recently died or left the household.

However, many of the households and families who reported

no income probably had some money income which was

not recorded in the census.

The income data presented in the tabulations covers

money income only. The fact that many farm families

receive an important part of their income in the form of

‘‘free’’ housing and goods produced and consumed on the

farm rather than in money should be taken into consideration in comparing the income of farm and nonfarm

residents. Nonmoney income such as business expense

accounts, use of business transportation and facilities, or

partial compensation by business for medical and educational expenses was also received by some nonfarm

residents. Many low income families also receive income

‘‘in kind’’ from public welfare programs. In comparing

income data for 1989 with earlier years, it should be noted

that an increase or decrease in money income does not

necessarily represent a comparable change in real income,

unless adjustments for changes in prices are made.

Comparability—The income data collected in the 1980

and 1970 censuses are similar to the 1990 census data,

but there are variations in the detail of the questions. In

1980, income information for 1979 was collected from

persons in approximately 19 percent of all housing units

and group quarters. Each person was required to report:

• Wage or salary income

• Net nonfarm self-employment income

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–17
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 18 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

• Net farm self-employment income

• Interest, dividend, or net rental or royalty income

• Social Security income

• Public assistance income

• Income from all other sources

Between the 1980 and 1990 censuses, there were

minor differences in the processing of the data. In both

censuses, all persons with missing values in one or more

of the detailed type of income items and total income were

designated as allocated. Each missing entry was imputed

either as a ‘‘no’’ or as a dollar amount. If total income was

reported and one or more of the type of income fields was

not answered, then the entry in total income generally was

assigned to one of the income types according to the

socioeconomic characteristics of the income recipient.

This person was designated as unallocated.

In 1980 and 1990, all nonrespondents with income not

reported (whether heads of households or other persons)

were assigned the reported income of persons with similar

characteristics. (For more information on imputation, see

Appendix C, ‘‘Accuracy of the Data.’’)

There was a difference in the method of computer

derivation of aggregate income from individual amounts

between the two census processing operations. In the

1980 census, income amounts less than $100,000 were

coded in tens of dollars, and amounts of $100,000 or more

were coded in thousands of dollars; $5 was added to each

amount coded in tens of dollars and $500 to each amount

coded in thousands of dollars. Entries of $999,000 or more

were treated as $999,500 and losses of $9,999 or more

were treated as minus $9,999. In the 1990 census, income

amounts less than $999,999 were keyed in dollars. Amounts

of $999,999 or more were treated as $999,999 and losses

of $9,999 or more were treated as minus $9,999 in all of

the computer derivations of aggregate income.

In 1970, information on income in 1969 was obtained

from all members in every fifth housing unit and small

group quarters (less than 15 persons) and every fifth

person in all other group quarters. Each person was

required to report:

• Wage or salary income

• Net nonfarm self-employment income

• Net farm self-employment income

• Social Security or Railroad Retirement

• Public assistance or welfare payments

• Income from all other sources

If a person reported a dollar amount in wage or salary,

net nonfarm self-employment income, or net farm selfemployment income, the person was considered as unallocated only if no further dollar amounts were imputed for

any additional missing entries.

In 1960, data on income were obtained from all members in every fourth housing unit and from every fourth

person 14 years old and over living in group quarters. Each

person was required to report wage or salary income, net

self-employment income, and income other than earnings

received in 1959. An assumption was made in the editing

process that no other type of income was received by a

person who reported the receipt of either wage and salary

income or self-employment but who had failed to report the

receipt of other money income.

For several reasons, the income data shown in census

tabulations are not directly comparable with those that

may be obtained from statistical summaries of income tax

returns. Income, as defined for Federal tax purposes,

differs somewhat from the Census Bureau concept. Moreover, the coverage of income tax statistics is different

because of the exemptions of persons having small amounts

of income and the inclusion of net capital gains in tax

returns. Furthermore, members of some families file separate returns and others file joint returns; consequently,

the income reporting unit is not consistently either a family

or a person.

The earnings data shown in census tabulations are not

directly comparable with earnings records of the Social

Security Administration. The earnings record data for 1989

excluded the earnings of most civilian government employees, some employees of nonprofit organizations, workers

covered by the Railroad Retirement Act, and persons not

covered by the program because of insufficient earnings.

Furthermore, earnings received from any one employer in

excess of $48,000 in 1989 are not covered by earnings

records. Finally, because census data are obtained from

household questionnaires, they may differ from Social

Security Administration earnings record data, which are

based upon employers’ reports and the Federal income

tax returns of self-employed persons.

The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) of the Department of Commerce publishes annual data on aggregate

and per-capita personal income received by the population

for States, metropolitan areas, and selected counties.

Aggregate income estimates based on the income statistics shown in census products usually would be less than

those shown in the BEA income series for several reasons.

The Census Bureau data are obtained directly from households, whereas the BEA income series is estimated largely

on the basis of data from administrative records of business and governmental sources. Moreover, the definitions

of income are different. The BEA income series includes

some items not included in the income data shown in

census publications, such as income ‘‘in kind,’’ income

received by nonprofit institutions, the value of services of

banks and other financial intermediaries rendered to persons without the assessment of specific charges, Medicare payments, and the income of persons who died or

emigrated prior to April 1, 1990. On the other hand, the

census income data include contributions for support

received from persons not residing in the same household

and employer contributions for social insurance.

INDUSTRY, OCCUPATION, AND CLASS OF

WORKER

The data on industry, occupation, and class of worker

were derived from answers to questionnaire items 28, 29,

and 30 respectively. These questions were asked of a

sample of persons. Information on industry relates to the

kind of business conducted by a person’s employing

organization; occupation describes the kind of work the

person does on the job.

For employed persons, the data refer to the person’s

job during the reference week. For those who worked at

two or more jobs, the data refer to the job at which the

person worked the greatest number of hours. For unemployed persons, the data refer to their last job. The industry

and occupation statistics are derived from the detailed

classification systems developed for the 1990 census as

described below. The Classified Index of Industries and

Occupations provided additional information on the industry and occupation classification systems.

Respondents provided the data for the tabulations by

writing on the questionnaires descriptions of their industry

and occupation. These descriptions were keyed and passed

through automated coding software which assigned a

portion of the written entries to categories in the classification system. The automated system assigned codes to

59 percent of the industry entries and 38 percent of the

occupation entries.

Those cases not coded by the computer were referred

to clerical staff in the Census Bureau’s Kansas City

processing office for coding. The clerical staff converted

the written questionnaire descriptions to codes by comparing these descriptions to entries in the Alphabetical Index

of Industries and Occupations. For the industry code,

these coders also referred to an Employer Name List

(formerly called Company Name List). This list, prepared

from the Standard Statistical Establishment List developed

by the Census Bureau for the economic censuses and

surveys, contained the names of business establishments

and their Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes

converted to population census equivalents. This list facilitated coding and maintained industrial classification comparability.

Industry

The industry classification system developed for the

1990 census consists of 236 categories for employed

persons, classified into 13 major industry groups. Since

1940, the industrial classification has been based on the

Standard Industrial Classification Manual (SIC). The 1990

census classification was developed from the 1987 SIC

published by the Office of Management and Budget,

Executive Office of the President.

The SIC was designed primarily to classify establishments by the type of industrial activity in which they were

engaged. However, census data, which were collected

from households, differ in detail and nature from those

obtained from establishment surveys. Therefore, the census classification systems, while defined in SIC terms,

cannot reflect the full detail in all categories. There are

several levels of industrial classification found in census

products. For example, the 1990 CP-2, Social and Economic Characteristics report includes 41 unique industrial

categories, while the 1990 Summary Tape File 4 (STF 4)

presents 72 categories.

Occupation

The occupational classification system developed for

the 1990 census consists of 501 specific occupational

categories for employed persons arranged into 6 summary

and 13 major occupational groups. This classification was

developed to be consistent with the Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) Manual: 1980, published by the

Office of Federal Statistical Policy and Standards, U.S.

Department of Commerce. Tabulations with occupation as

the primary characteristic present several levels of occupational detail. The most detailed tabulations are shown in

a special 1990 subject report and tape files on occupation.

These products contain all 501 occupational categories

plus industry or class of worker subgroupings of occupational categories.

Some occupation groups are related closely to certain

industries. Operators of transportation equipment, farm

operators and workers, and private household workers

account for major portions of their respective industries of

transportation, agriculture, and private households. However, the industry categories include persons in other

occupations. For example, persons employed in agriculture include truck drivers and bookkeepers; persons employed

in the transportation industry include mechanics, freight

handlers, and payroll clerks; and persons employed in the

private household industry include occupations such as

chauffeur, gardener, and secretary.

Class of Worker

The data on class of worker were derived from answers

to questionnaire item 30. The information on class of

worker refers to the same job as a respondent’s industry

and occupation and categorizes persons according to the

type of ownership of the employing organization. The class

of worker categories are defined as follows:

Private Wage and Salary Workers—Includes persons

who worked for wages, salary, commission, tips, pay-inkind, or piece rates for a private for profit employer or a

private not-for-profit, tax-exempt or charitable organization. Self-employed persons whose business was incorporated are included with private wage and salary workers

because they are paid employees of their own companies.

Some tabulations present data separately for these subcategories: ‘‘For profit,’’ ‘‘Not for profit,’’ and ‘‘Own business incorporated.’’

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–19
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 20 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

Employees of foreign governments, the United Nations,

or other formal international organizations were classified

as ’’Private-not-for-profit.’’

Government Workers—Includes persons who were employees of any local, State, or Federal governmental unit,

regardless of the activity of the particular agency. For

some tabulations, the data were presented separately for

the three levels of government.

Self-Employed Workers—Includes persons who worked

for profit or fees in their own unincorporated business,

profession, or trade, or who operated a farm.

Unpaid Family Workers—Includes persons who worked

15 hours or more without pay in a business or on a farm

operated by a relative.

Salaried/ Self-Employed—In tabulations that categorize

persons as either salaried or self-employed, the salaried

category includes private and government wage and salary

workers; self-employed includes self-employed persons

and unpaid family workers.

The industry category, ‘‘Public administration,’’ is limited

to regular government functions such as legislative, judicial, administrative, and regulatory activities of governments. Other government organizations such as schools,

hospitals, liquor stores, and bus lines are classified by

industry according to the activity in which they are engaged.

On the other hand, the class of worker government

categories include all government workers.

Occasionally respondents supplied industry, occupation, or class of worker descriptions which were not

sufficiently specific for precise classification or did not

report on these items at all. Some of these cases were

corrected through the field editing process and during the

coding and tabulation operations. In the coding operation,

certain types of incomplete entries were corrected using

the Alphabetical Index of Industries and Occupations. For

example, it was possible in certain situations to assign an

industry code based on the occupation reported.

Following the coding operations, there was a computer

edit and an allocation process. The edit first determined

whether a respondent was in the universe which required

an industry and occupation code. The codes for the three

items (industry, occupation, and class of worker) were

checked to ensure they were valid and were edited for their

relation to each other. Invalid and inconsistent codes were

either blanked or changed to a consistent code.

If one or more of the three codes were blank after the

edit, a code was assigned from a ‘‘similar’’ person based

on other items such as age, sex, education, farm or

nonfarm residence, and weeks worked. If all the labor

force and income data also were blank, all these economic

items were assigned from one other person who provided

all the necessary data.

Comparability—Comparability of industry and occupation

data was affected by a number of factors, primarily the

systems used to classify the questionnaire responses. For

both the industry and occupation classification systems,

the basic structures were generally the same from 1940 to

1970, but changes in the individual categories limited

comparability of the data from one census to another.

These changes were needed to recognize the ‘‘birth’’ of

new industries and occupations, the ‘‘death’’ of others,

and the growth and decline in existing industries and

occupations, as well as, the desire of analysts and other

users for more detail in the presentation of the data.

Probably the greatest cause of incomparability is the

movement of a segment of a category to a different

category in the next census. Changes in the nature of jobs

and respondent terminology, and refinement of category

composition made these movements necessary.

In the 1990 census, the industry classification had minor

revisions to reflect recent changes to the SIC. The 1990

occupational classification system is essentially the same

as that for the 1980 census. However, the conversion of

the census classification to the SOC in 1980 meant that

the 1990 classification system was less comparable to the

classifications used prior to the 1980 census.

Other factors that affected data comparability included

the universe to which the data referred (in 1970, the age

cutoff for labor force was changed from 14 years to 16

years); how the industry and occupation questions were

worded on the questionnaire (for example, important changes

were made in 1970); improvements in the coding procedures (the Employer Name List technique was introduced

in 1960); and how the ‘‘not reported’’ cases are handled.

Prior to 1970, they were placed in the residual categories,

‘‘Industry not reported’’ and ‘‘Occupation not reported.’’ In

1970, an allocation process was introduced that assigned

these cases to major groups. In 1990, as in 1980, the ‘‘Not

reported’’ cases were assigned to individual categories.

Therefore, the 1980 and 1990 data for individual categories included some numbers of persons who were tabulated in a ‘‘Not reported’’ category in previous censuses.

The following publications contain information on the

various factors affecting comparability and are particularly

useful for understanding differences in the occupation and

industry information from earlier censuses: U.S. Bureau of

the Census, Changes Between the 1950 and 1960 Occupation and Industry Classifications With Detailed Adjustments of 1950 Data to the 1960 Classifications, Technical

category is a subset of the 1980 category ‘‘employee of

private employer’’ so there is no comparable data before

1990. Also in 1990, employees of foreign governments,

the United Nations, etc., are classified as ‘‘private not-forprofit,’’ rather than Federal Government as in 1970 and

1980. While in theory, there was a change in comparability,

in practice, the small number of U.S. residents working for

foreign governments made this change negligible.

Comparability between the statistics on industry and

occupation from the 1990 census and statistics from other

sources is affected by many of the factors described in the

section on ‘‘Employment Status.’’ These factors are primarily geographic differences between residence and place

of work, different dates of reference, and differences in

counts because of dual job holding. Industry data from

population censuses cover all industries and all kinds of

workers, whereas, data from establishments often excluded

private household workers, government workers, and the

self-employed. Also, the replies from household respondents may have differed in detail and nature from those

obtained from establishments.

Occupation data from the census and data from government licensing agencies, professional associations, trade

unions, etc., may not be as comparable as expected.

Organizational listings often include persons not in the

labor force or persons devoting all or most of their time to

another occupation; or the same person may be included

in two or more different listings. In addition, relatively few

organizations, except for those requiring licensing, attained

complete coverage of membership in a particular occupational field.

JOURNEY TO WORK

Place of Work

The data on place of work were derived from answers to

questionnaire item 22, which was asked of persons who

indicated in question 21 that they worked at some time

during the reference week. (For more information, see

discussion under ‘‘Reference Week.’’)

Data were tabulated for workers 16 years and over; that

is, members of the Armed Forces and civilians who were at

work during the reference week. Data on place of work

refer to the geographic location at which workers carried

out their occupational activities during the reference week.

The exact address (number and street) of the place of

work was asked, as well as the place (city, town, or post

office); whether or not the place of work was inside or

outside the limits of that city or town; and the county, State,

and ZIP Code. If the person’s employer operated in more

than one location, the exact address of the location or

branch where the respondent worked was requested.

When the number and street name were unknown, a

description of the location, such as the building name or

nearest street or intersection, was to be entered.

Persons who worked at more than one location during

the reference week were asked to report the one at which

they worked the greatest number of hours. Persons who

regularly worked in several locations each day during the

reference week were requested to give the address at

which they began work each day. For cases in which daily

work did not begin at a central place each day, the person

was asked to provide as much information as possible to

describe the area in which he or she worked most during

the reference week.

In some tabulations, place-of-work locations may be

defined as ‘‘in area of residence’’ and ‘‘outside area of

residence.’’ The area of residence may vary from table to

table or even within a table, and refers to the particular

area or areas shown. For example, in a table that provides

data for counties, ‘‘in area of residence’’ refers to persons

who worked in the same county in which they lived, while

‘‘outside area of residence’’ refers to persons whose

workplace was located in a county different from the one in

which they lived. Similarly, in a table that provides data for

several types of areas, such as the State and its individual

metropolitan areas (MA’s), counties, and places, the placeof-work data will be variable and is determined by the

geographic level (State, MA, county, or place) shown in

each section of the tabulation.

In tabulations that present data for States, workplaces

for the residents of the State may include, in addition to the

State itself, each contiguous State. The category, ‘‘in

noncontiguous State or abroad,’’ includes persons who

worked in a State that did not border their State of

residence as well as persons who worked outside the

United States.

In tabulations that present data for an MSA/ PMSA,

place-of-work locations are specified to show the main

destinations of workers living in the MSA/ PMSA. (For

more information on metropolitan areas (MA’s), see Appendix A, Area Classifications.) All place-of-work locations are

identified with respect to the boundaries of the MSA/ PMSA

as ‘‘inside MSA/ PMSA’’ or ‘‘outside MSA/ PMSA.’’ Locations within the MSA/ PMSA are further divided into each

central city, and each county or county balance. Selected

large incorporated places also may be specified as places

of work.

Within New England MSA/ PMSA’s, the places of work

presented generally are cities and towns. Locations outside the MSA/ PMSA are specified if they are important

commuting destinations for residents of the MSA/ PMSA,

and may include adjoining MSA/ PMSA’s and their central

cities, their component counties, large incorporated places,

or counties, cities, or other geographic areas outside any

MA. In tabulations for MSA/ PMSA’s in New England;

Honolulu, Hawaii; and certain other MA’s, some place-ofwork locations are identified as ‘‘areas’’ (e.g., Area 1, Area

5, Area 12, etc.). Such areas consist of groups of towns,

cities, census designated places (Honolulu MSA only), or

counties that have been identified as unique place-of-work

destinations. When an adjoining MSA/ PMSA or MSA/ PMSA

remainder is specified as a place-of-work location, its

reports. In tabulations that present data for census tracts

outside MA’s, place-of-work locations are defined as ‘‘in

county of residence’’ and ‘‘outside county of residence.’’

In areas where the workplace address was coded to the

block level, persons were tabulated as working inside or

outside a specific place based on the location of that

address, regardless of the response to question 22c

concerning city/ town limits. In areas where it was impossible to code the workplace address to the block level,

persons were tabulated as working in a place if a place

name was reported in question 22b and the response to

question 22c was either ‘‘Yes’’ or the item was left blank.

In selected areas, census designated places (CDP’s) may

appear in the tabulations as places of work. The accuracy

of place-of-work data for CDP’s may be affected by the

extent to which their census names were familiar to

respondents, and by coding problems caused by similarities between the CDP name and the names of other

geographic jurisdictions in the same vicinity.

Place-of-work data are given for selected minor civil

divisions (generally, cities, towns, and townships) in the

nine Northeastern States, based on the responses to the

place-of-work question. Many towns and townships are

regarded locally as equivalent to a place and therefore,

were reported as the place of work. When a respondent

reported a locality or incorporated place that formed a part

of a township or town, the coding and tabulating procedure

was designed to include the response in the total for the

township or town. The accuracy of the place-of-work data

for minor civil divisions is greatest for the New England

States. However, the data for some New England towns,

for towns in New York, and for townships in New Jersey

and Pennsylvania may be affected by coding problems

that resulted from the unfamiliarity of the respondent with

the minor civil division in which the workplace was located

or when a township and a city or borough of the same or

similar name are located close together.

Place-of-work data may show a few workers who made

unlikely daily work trips (e.g., workers who lived in New

York and worked in California). This result is attributable to

persons who worked during the reference week at a

location that was different from their usual place of work,

such as persons away from home on business.

Comparability—The wording of the question on place of

work was substantially the same in the 1990 census as it

was in 1980. However, data on place of work from the

1990 census are based on the full census sample, while

data from the 1980 census were based on only about

one-half of the full sample.

For the 1980 census,nonresponse or incomplete responses

to the place-of-work question were not allocated, resulting

in the use of ‘‘not reported’’ categories in the 1980

publications. However, for the 1990 census, when place of

work was not reported or the response was incomplete, a

work location was allocated to the person based on their

means of transportation to work, travel time to work,

industry, and location of residence and workplace of

others. The 1990 publications, therefore, do not contain a

‘‘not reported’’ category for the place-of-work data.

Comparisons between 1980 and 1990 census data on

the gross number of workers in particular commuting flows,

or the total number of persons working in an area, should

be made with extreme caution. Any apparent increase in

the magnitude of the gross numbers may be due solely to

the fact that for 1990 the ‘‘not reported’’ cases have been

distributed among specific place-of-work destinations, instead

of tallied in a separate category as in 1980.

Limitation of the Data—The data on place of work relate

to a reference week; that is, the calendar week preceding

the date on which the respondents completed their questionnaires or were interviewed by enumerators. This week

is not the same for all respondents because the enumeration was not completed in 1 week. However, for the

majority of persons, the reference week for the 1990

census is the last week in March 1990. The lack of a

uniform reference week means that the place-of-work data

reported in the census will not exactly match the distribution of workplace locations observed or measured during

an actual workweek.

The place-of-work data are estimates of persons 16

years old and over who were both employed and at work

during the reference week (including persons in the Armed

Forces). Persons who did not work during the reference

week but had jobs or businesses from which they were

temporarily absent due to illness, bad weather, industrial

dispute, vacation, or other personal reasons are not included

in the place-of-work data. Therefore, the data on place of

work understate the total number of jobs or total employment in a geographic area during the reference week. It

also should be noted that persons who had irregular,

casual, or unstructured jobs during the reference week

may have erroneously reported themselves as not working.

The address where the individual worked most often

during the reference week was recorded on the census

questionnaire. If a worker held two jobs, only data about

the primary job (the one worked the greatest number of

hours during the preceding week) was requested. Persons

who regularly worked in several locations during the reference week were requested to give the address at which

they began work each day. For cases in which daily work

was not begun at a central place each day, the person was

asked to provide as much information as possible to

describe the area in which he or she worked most during

the reference week.

Means of Transportation to Work

The data on means of transportation to work were

derived from answers to questionnaire item 23a, which

was asked of persons who indicated in question 21 that

B–22 DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 23 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

they worked at some time during the reference week. (For

more information, see discussion under ‘‘Reference Week.’’)

Means of transportation to work refers to the principal

mode of travel or type of conveyance that the person

usually used to get from home to work during the reference

week.

Persons who used different means of transportation on

different days of the week were asked to specify the one

they used most often, that is, the greatest number of days.

Persons who used more than one means of transportation

to get to work each day were asked to report the one used

for the longest distance during the work trip. The category,

‘‘Car, truck, or van,’’ includes workers using a car (including company cars but excluding taxicabs), a truck of

one-ton capacity or less, or a van. The category, ‘‘Public

transportation,’’ includes workers who used a bus or trolley

bus, streetcar or trolley car, subway or elevated, railroad,

ferryboat, or taxicab even if each mode is not shown

separately in the tabulation. The category, ‘‘Other means,’’

includes workers who used a mode of travel which is not

identified separately within the data distribution. The category, ‘‘Other means,’’ may vary from table to table, depending on the amount of detail shown in a particular distribution.

The means of transportation data for some areas may

show workers using modes of public transportation that

are not available in those areas (e.g., subway or elevated

riders in an MA where there actually is no subway or

elevated service). This result is largely due to persons who

worked during the reference week at a location that was

different from their usual place of work (such as persons

away from home on business in an area where subway

service was available) and persons who used more than

one means of transportation each day but whose principal

means was unavailable where they lived (for example,

residents of nonmetropolitan areas who drove to the fringe

of an MA and took the commuter railroad most of the

distance to work).

Private Vehicle Occupancy

The data on private vehicle occupancy were derived

from answers to questionnaire item 23b. This question was

asked of persons who indicated in question 21 that they

worked at some time during the reference week and who

reported in question 23a that their means of transportation

to work was ‘‘Car, truck, or van.’’ (For more information,

see discussion under ‘‘Reference Week.’’)

Private vehicle occupancy refers to the number of

persons who usually rode to work in the vehicle during the

reference week. The category, ‘‘Drove alone,’’ includes

persons who usually drove alone to work as well as

persons who were driven to work by someone who then

drove back home or to a nonwork destination. The category, ‘‘Carpooled,’’ includes workers who reported that two

or more persons usually rode to work in the vehicle during

the reference week.

Persons Per Car, Truck, or Van—This is obtained by

dividing the number of persons who reported using a car,

truck, or van to get to work by the number of such vehicles

that they used. The number of vehicles used is derived by

counting each person who drove alone as one vehicle,

each person who reported being in a two-person carpool

as one-half vehicle, each person who reported being in a

three-person carpool as one-third vehicle, and so on, and

then summing all the vehicles.

Time Leaving Home to Go to Work

The data on time leaving home to go to work were

derived from answers to questionnaire item 24a. This

question was asked of persons who indicated in question

21 that they worked at some time during the reference

week and who reported in question 23a that they worked

outside their home. The departure time refers to the time of

day that the person usually left home to go to work during

the reference week. (For more information, see discussion

under ‘‘Reference Week.’’)

Travel Time to Work

The data on travel time to work were derived from

answers to questionnaire item 24b. This question was

asked of persons who indicated in question 21 that they

worked at some time during the reference week and who

reported in question 23a that they worked outside their

home. Travel time to work refers to the total number of

minutes that it usually took the person to get from home to

work during the reference week. The elapsed time includes

time spent waiting for public transportation, picking up

passengers in carpools, and time spent in other activities

related to getting to work. (For more information, see

discussion under ‘‘Reference Week.’’)

LANGUAGE SPOKEN AT HOME AND ABILITY

TO SPEAK ENGLISH

Language Spoken at Home

Data on language spoken at home were derived from

the answers to questionnaire items 15a and 15b, which

were asked of a sample of persons born before April 1,

1985. Instructions mailed with the 1990 census questionnaire stated that a respondent should mark ‘‘Yes’’ in

question 15a if the person sometimes or always spoke a

language other than English at home and should not mark

‘‘Yes’’ if a language was spoken only at school or if

speaking was limited to a few expressions or slang. For

question 15b, respondents were instructed to print the

name of the non-English language spoken at home. If the

person spoke more than one language other than English,

the person was to report the language spoken more often

or the language learned first.

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–23

The cover of the census questionnaire included information in Spanish which provided a telephone number for

respondents to call to request a census questionnaire and

instructions in Spanish. Instruction guides were also available in 32 other languages to assist enumerators who

encountered households or respondents who spoke no

English.

Questions 15a and 15b referred to languages spoken at

home in an effort to measure the current use of languages

other than English. Persons who knew languages other

than English but did not use them at home or who only

used them elsewhere were excluded. Persons who reported

speaking a language other than English at home may also

speak English; however, the questions did not permit

determination of the main or dominant language of persons who spoke both English and another language. (For

more information, see discussion below on ‘‘Ability to

Speak English.’’)

For persons who indicated that they spoke a language

other than English at home in question 15a, but failed to

specify the name of the language in question 15b, the

language was assigned based on the language of other

speakers in the household; on the language of a person of

the same Spanish origin or detailed race group living in the

same or a nearby area; or on a person of the same

ancestry or place of birth. In all cases where a person was

assigned a non-English language, it was assumed that the

language was spoken at home. Persons for whom the

name of a language other than English was entered in

question 15b, and for whom question 15a was blank were

assumed to speak that language at home.

The write-in responses listed in question 15b (specific

language spoken) were transcribed onto computer files

and coded into more than 380 detailed language categories using an automated coding system. The automated

procedure compared write-in responses reported by respondents with entries in a computer dictionary, which initially

contained approximately 2,000 language names. The dictionary was updated with a large number of new names,

variations in spelling, and a small number of residual

categories. Each write-in response was given a numeric

code that was associated with one of the detailed categories in the dictionary. If the respondent listed more than

one non-English language, only the first was coded.

The write-in responses represented the names people

used for languages they speak. They may not match the

names or categories used by linguists. The sets of categories used are sometimes geographic and sometimes

linguistic. Figure 1 provides an illustration of the content of

the classification schemes used to present language data.

For more information, write to the Chief, Population Division, U.S. Bureau of the Census, Washington, DC 20233.

Household Language—In households where one or more

persons (age 5 years old or over) speak a language other

than English, the household language assigned to all

household members is the non-English language spoken

by the first person with a non-English language in the

following order: householder, spouse, parent, sibling, child,

grandchild, other relative, stepchild, unmarried partner,

housemate or roommate, roomer, boarder, or foster child,

or other nonrelative. Thus, persons who speak only English

may have a non-English household language assigned to

them in tabulations of persons by household language.

Ability to Speak English

Persons 5 years old and over who reported that they

spoke a language other than English in question 15a were

also asked in question 15c to indicate their ability to speak

English based on one of the following categories: ‘‘Very

well,’’ ‘‘Well,’’ ‘‘Not well,’’ or ‘‘Not at all.’’

The data on ability to speak English represent the

person’s own perception about his or her own ability or,

because census questionnaires are usually completed by

one household member, the responses may represent the

perception of another household member. The instruction

B–24 DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 25 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

guides and questionnaires that were mailed to households

did not include any information on how to interpret the

response categories in question 15c.

Persons who reported that they spoke a language other

than English at home but whose ability to speak English

was not reported, were assigned the English-language

ability of a randomly selected person of the same age,

Spanish origin, nativity and year of entry, and language

group.

Linguistic Isolation—A household in which no person

age 14 years or over speaks only English and no person

age 14 years or over who speaks a language other than

English speaks English ‘‘Very well’’ is classified as ‘‘linguistically isolated.’’ All the members of a linguistically

isolated household are tabulated as linguistically isolated,

including members under age 14 years who may speak

only English.

Limitation of the Data—Persons who speak a language

other than English at home may have first learned that

language at school. However, these persons would be

expected to indicate that they spoke English ‘‘Very well.’’

Persons who speak a language other than English, but do

not do so at home, should have been reported as not

speaking a language other than English at home.

The extreme detail in which language names were

coded may give a false impression of the linguistic precision of these data. The names used by speakers of a

language to identify it may reflect ethnic, geographic, or

political affiliations and do not necessarily respect linguistic distinctions. The categories shown in the tabulations

were chosen on a number of criteria, such as information

about the number of speakers of each language that might

be expected in a sample of the United States population.

Comparability—Information on language has been collected in every census since 1890. The comparability of

data among censuses is limited by changes in question

wording, by the subpopulations to whom the question was

addressed, and by the detail that was published.

The same question on language was asked in the 1980

and 1990 censuses. This question on the current language

spoken at home replaced the questions asked in prior

censuses on mother tongue; that is, the language other

than English spoken in the person’s home when he or she

was a child; one’s first language; or the language spoken

before immigrating to the United States. The censuses of

1910-1940, 1960 and 1970 included questions on mother

tongue. A change in coding procedure from 1980 to 1990

should have improved accuracy of coding and may affect

the number of persons reported in some of the 380 plus

categories. It should not greatly affect the 4-group or 25-

group lists. In 1980, coding clerks supplied numeric codes

for the written entries on each questionnaire using a 2,000

name reference list. In 1990 written entries were transcribed to a computer file and matched to a computer

dictionary which began with the 2,000 name list, but

expanded as unmatched names were referred to headquarters specialists for resolution.

The question on ability to speak English was asked for

the first time in 1980. In tabulations from 1980, the

categories ‘‘Very well’’ and ‘‘Well’’ were combined. Data

from other surveys suggested a major difference between

the category ‘‘Very well’’ and the remaining categories. In

tabulations showing ability to speak English, persons who

reported that they spoke English ‘‘Very well’’ are presented separately from persons who reported their ability

to speak English as less than ‘‘Very well.’’

MARITAL STATUS

The data on marital status were derived from answers to

questionnaire item 6, which was asked of all persons. The

marital status classification refers to the status at the time

of enumeration. Data on marital status are tabulated only

for persons 15 years old and over.

All persons were asked whether they were ‘‘now married,’’ ‘‘widowed,’’ ‘‘divorced,’’ ‘‘separated,’’ or ‘‘never married.’’ Couples who live together (unmarried persons,

persons in common-law marriages) were allowed to report

the marital status they considered the most appropriate.

Never Married—Includes all persons who have never

been married, including persons whose only marriage(s)

was annulled.

Ever Married—Includes persons married at the time of

enumeration (including those separated),widowed, or divorced.

Now Married, Except Separated—Includes persons whose

current marriage has not ended through widowhood, divorce,

or separation (regardless of previous marital history). The

category may also include couples who live together or

persons in common-law marriages if they consider this

category the most appropriate. In certain tabulations,

currently married persons are further classified as ‘‘spouse

present’’ or ‘‘spouse absent.’’

Separated—Includes persons legally separated or otherwise absent from their spouse because of marital discord.

Included are persons who have been deserted or who

have parted because they no longer want to live together

but who have not obtained a divorce.

Widowed—Includes widows and widowers who have not

remarried.

Divorced—Includes persons who are legally divorced and

who have not remarried.

In selected sample tabulations, data for married and

separated persons are reorganized and combined with

information on the presence of the spouse in the same

household.

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–25
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 26 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

Now Married—All persons whose current marriage has

not ended by widowhood or divorce. This category includes

persons defined above as ‘‘separated.’’

Spouse Present—Married persons whose wife or husband was enumerated as a member of the same

household, including those whose spouse may have

been temporarily absent for such reasons as travel or

hospitalization.

Spouse Absent—Married persons whose wife or husband was not enumerated as a member of the same

household. This category also includes all married persons living in group quarters.

Separated—Defined above.

Spouse Absent, Other—Married persons whose wife or

husband was not enumerated as a member of the same

household, excluding separated. Included is any person

whose spouse was employed and living away from

home or in an institution or absent in the Armed Forces.

Differences between the number of currently married

males and the number of currently married females occur

because of reporting differences and because some husbands and wives have their usual residence in different

areas. In sample tabulations, these differences can also

occur because different weights are applied to the individual’s data. Any differences between the number of ‘‘now

married, spouse present’’ males and females are due

solely to sample weighting. By definition, the numbers

would be the same.

When marital status was not reported, it was imputed

according to the relationship to the householder and sex

and age of the person. (For more information on imputation, see Appendix C, Accuracy of the Data.)

Comparability—The 1990 marital status definitions are

the same as those used in 1980 with the exception of the

term ‘‘never married’’ which replaces the term ‘‘single’’ in

tabulations. A general marital status question has been

asked in every census since 1880.

MOBILITY LIMITATION STATUS

The data on mobility limitation status were derived from

answers to questionnaire item 19a, which was asked of a

sample of persons 15 years old and over. Persons were

identified as having a mobility limitation if they had a health

condition that had lasted for 6 or more months and which

made it difficult to go outside the home alone. Examples of

outside activities on the questionnaire included shopping

and visiting the doctor’s office.

The term ‘‘health condition’’ referred to both physical

and mental conditions. A temporary health problem, such

as a broken bone that was expected to heal normally, was

not considered a health condition.

Comparability—This was the first time that a question on

mobility limitation was included in the census.

PLACE OF BIRTH

The data on place of birth were derived from answers to

questionnaire item 8, which was asked on a sample basis.

The place-of-birth question asked respondents to report

the U.S. State, commonwealth or territory, or the foreign

country where they were born. Persons born outside the

United States were asked to report their place of birth

according to current international boundaries. Since numerous changes in boundaries of foreign countries have

occurred in the last century, some persons may have

reported their place of birth in terms of boundaries that

existed at the time of their birth or emigration, or in

accordance with their own national preference.

Persons not reporting place of birth were assigned the

birthplace of another family member or were allocated the

response of another person with similar characteristics.

Persons allocated as foreign born were not assigned a

specific country of birth but were classified as ‘‘Born

abroad, country not specified.’’

Nativity—Information on place of birth and citizenship

were used to classify the population into two major categories: native and foreign born. When information on place

of birth was not reported, nativity was assigned on the

basis of answers to citizenship, if reported, and other

characteristics.

Native—Includes persons born in the United States, Puerto

Rico, or an outlying area of the United States. The small

number of persons who were born in a foreign country but

have at least one American parent also are included in this

category.

The native population is classified in the following

groups: persons born in the State in which they resided at

the time of the census; persons born in a different State, by

region; persons born in Puerto Rico or an outlying area of

the U.S.; and persons born abroad with at least one

American parent.

Foreign Born—Includes persons not classified as ‘‘Native.’’

Prior to the 1970 census, persons not reporting place of

birth were generally classified as native.

The foreign-born population is shown by selected area,

country, or region of birth; the places of birth shown in data

products were selected based on the number of respondents who reported that area or country of birth.

Comparability—Data on the State of birth of the native

population have been collected in each census beginning

with that of 1850. Similar data were shown in tabulations

for the 1980 census and other recent censuses. Nonresponse was allocated in a similar manner in 1980; however, prior to 1980, nonresponse to the place of birth

question was not allocated. Prior to the 1970 census,

persons not reporting place of birth were generally classified as native.

The questionnaire instruction to report mother’s State of

residence instead of the person’s actual State of birth (if

born in a hospital in a different State) was dropped in 1990.

Evaluation studies of 1970 and 1980 census data demonstrated that this instruction was generally either ignored or

misunderstood. Since the hospital and the mother’s residence is in the same State for most births, this change may

have a slight effect on State of birth data for States with

large metropolitan areas that straddle State lines.

POVERTY STATUS IN 1989

The data on poverty status were derived from answers

to the same questions as the income data, questionnaire

items 32 and 33. (For more information, see the discussion

under ‘‘Income in 1989.’’) Poverty statistics presented in

census publications were based on a definition originated

by the Social Security Administration in 1964 and subsequently modified by Federal interagency committees in

1969 and 1980 and prescribed by the Office of Management and Budget in Directive 14 as the standard to be

used by Federal agencies for statistical purposes.

At the core of this definition was the 1961 economy food

plan, the least costly of four nutritionally adequate food

plans designed by the Department of Agriculture. It was

determined from the Agriculture Department’s 1955 survey

of food consumption that families of three or more persons

spend approximately one-third of their income on food;

hence, the poverty level for these families was set at three

times the cost of the economy food plan. For smaller

families and persons living alone, the cost of the economy

food plan was multiplied by factors that were slightly higher

to compensate for the relatively larger fixed expenses for

these smaller households.

The income cutoffs used by the Census Bureau to

determine the poverty status of families and unrelated

individuals included a set of 48 thresholds arranged in a

two-dimensional matrix consisting of family size (from one

person to nine or more persons) cross-classified by presence and number of family members under 18 years old

(from no children present to eight or more children present).

Unrelated individuals and two-person families were further

differentiated by age of the householder (under 65 years

old and 65 years old and over).

The total income of each family or unrelated individual in

the sample was tested against the appropriate poverty

threshold to determine the poverty status of that family or

unrelated individual. If the total income was less than the

corresponding cutoff, the family or unrelated individual was

classified as ‘‘below the poverty level.’’ The number of

persons below the poverty level was the sum of the

number of persons in families with incomes below the

poverty level and the number of unrelated individuals with

incomes below the poverty level.

The poverty thresholds are revised annually to allow for

changes in the cost of living as reflected in the Consumer

Price Index. The average poverty threshold for a family of

four persons was $12,674 in 1989. (For more information,

see table A below.) Poverty thresholds were applied on a

national basis and were not adjusted for regional, State or

local variations in the cost of living. For a detailed discussion of the poverty definition, see U.S. Bureau of the

Census, Current Population Reports, Series P-60, No. 171,

Poverty in the United States: 1988 and 1989.

Persons for Whom Poverty Status is Determined—

Poverty status was determined for all persons except

institutionalized persons, persons in military group quarters

and in college dormitories, and unrelated individuals under

15 years old. These groups also were excluded from the

denominator when calculating poverty rates.

Specified Poverty Levels—Since the poverty levels currently in use by the Federal Government do not meet all

the needs of data users, some of the data are presented

for alternate levels. These specified poverty levels are

obtained by multiplying the income cutoffs at the poverty

level by the appropriate factor. For example, the average

income cutoff at 125 percent of poverty level was $15,843

($12,674 x 1.25) in 1989 for a family of four persons.

Weighted Average Thresholds at the Poverty

Level—The average thresholds shown in the first column

of table A are weighted by the presence and number of

children. For example, the weighted average threshold for

a given family size is obtained by multiplying the threshold

for each presence and number of children category within

the given family size by the number of families in that

category. These products are then aggregated across the

entire range of presence and number of children categories, and the aggregate is divided by the total number of

families in the group to yield the weighted average threshold at the poverty level for that family size.

Since the basic thresholds used to determine the poverty status of families and unrelated individuals are applied

to all families and unrelated individuals, the weighted

average poverty thresholds are derived using all families

and unrelated individuals rather than just those classified

as being below the poverty level. To obtain the weighted

poverty thresholds for families and unrelated individuals

below alternate poverty levels, the weighted thresholds

shown in table A may be multiplied directly by the appropriate factor. The weighted average thresholds presented

in the table are based on the March 1990 Current Population Survey. However, these thresholds would not differ

significantly from those based on the 1990 census.

Income Deficit—Represents the difference between the

total income of families and unrelated individuals below the

poverty level and their respective poverty thresholds. In

computing the income deficit, families reporting a net

income loss are assigned zero dollars and for such cases

the deficit is equal to the poverty threshold.

This measure provided an estimate of the amount which

would be required to raise the incomes of all poor families

and unrelated individuals to their respective poverty thresholds. The income deficit is thus a measure of the degree of

impoverishment of a family or unrelated individual. However, caution must be used in comparing the average

deficits of families with different characteristics. Apparent

differences in average income deficits may, to some

extent, be a function of differences in family size.

Mean Income Deficit—Represents the amount obtained

by dividing the total income deficit of a group below the

poverty level by the number of families (or unrelated

individuals) in that group.

Comparability—The poverty definition used in the 1990

and 1980 censuses differed slightly from the one used in

the 1970 census. Three technical modifications were

made to the definition used in the 1970 census as described

below:

1. The separate thresholds for families with a female

householder with no husband present and all other

families were eliminated. For the 1980 and 1990

censuses, the weighted average of the poverty thresholds for these two types of families was applied to all

types of families, regardless of the sex of the householder.

2. Farm families and farm unrelated individuals no longer

had a set of poverty thresholds that were lower than

the thresholds applied to nonfarm families and unrelated individuals. The farm thresholds were 85 percent

of the corresponding levels for nonfarm families in the

1970 census. The same thresholds were applied to all

families and unrelated individuals regardless of residence in 1980 and 1990.

3. The thresholds by size of family were extended from

seven or more persons in 1970 to nine or more

persons in 1980 and 1990.

These changes resulted in a minimal increase in the

number of poor at the national level. For a complete

discussion of these modifications and their impact, see the

Current Population Reports, Series P-60, No. 133.

The population covered in the poverty statistics derived

from the 1980 and 1990 censuses was essentially the

same as in the 1970 census. The only difference was that

in 1980 and 1990, unrelated individuals under 15 years old

were excluded from the poverty universe, while in 1970,

only those under 14 years old were excluded. The poverty

data from the 1960 census excluded all persons in group

quarters and included all unrelated individuals regardless

of age. It was unlikely that these differences in population

coverage would have had significant impact when comparing the poverty data for persons since the 1960 censuses.

Current Population Survey—Because of differences in

the questionnaires and data collection procedures, estimates of the number of persons below the poverty level

by various characteristics from the 1990 census may

differ from those reported in the March 1990 Current

Population Survey.

RACE

The data on race were derived from answers to questionnaire item 4, which was asked of all persons. The

concept of race as used by the Census Bureau reflects

self-identification; it does not denote any clear-cut scientific definition of biological stock. The data for race represent self-classification by people according to the race

with which they most closely identify. Furthermore, it is

recognized that the categories of the race item include

both racial and national origin or socio-cultural groups.

During direct interviews conducted by enumerators, if a

person could not provide a single response to the race

question, he or she was asked to select, based on

self-identification, the group which best described his or

her racial identity. If a person could not provide a single

race response, the race of the mother was used. If a single

race response could not be provided for the person’s

mother, the first race reported by the person was used. In

all cases where occupied housing units, households, or

families are classified by race, the race of the householder

was used.

The racial classification used by the Census Bureau

generally adheres to the guidelines in Federal Statistical

Directive No. 15, issued by the Office of Management and

Budget, which provides standards on ethnic and racial

categories for statistical reporting to be used by all Federal

agencies. The racial categories used in the 1990 census

data products are provided below.

White—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘White’’ or reported entries such as Canadian, German,

Italian, Lebanese, Near Easterner, Arab, or Polish.

Black—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘Black or Negro’’ or reported entries such as African

American, Afro-American, Black Puerto Rican, Jamaican,

Nigerian, West Indian, or Haitian.

American Indian, Eskimo, or Aleut—Includes persons

who classified themselves as such in one of the specific

race categories identified below.

American Indian—Includes persons who indicated their

race as ‘‘American Indian,’’ entered the name of an

Indian tribe, or reported such entries as Canadian

Indian, French-American Indian, or Spanish-American

Indian.

American Indian Tribe—Persons who identified themselves as American Indian were asked to report their

enrolled or principal tribe. Therefore, tribal data in

tabulations reflect the written tribal entries reported

on the questionnaires. Some of the entries (for

example, Iroquois, Sioux, Colorado River, and Flathead) represent nations or reservations.

The information on tribe is based on self-identification

and therefore does not reflect any designation of

Federally- or State-recognized tribe. Information on

American Indian tribes is presented in summary tape

files and special data products. The information is

derived from the American Indian Detailed Tribal

Classification List for the 1990 census. The classification list represents all tribes, bands, and clans that

had a specified number of American Indians reported

on the census questionnaire.

Eskimo—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘Eskimo’’ or reported entries such as Arctic Slope,

Inupiat, and Yupik.

Aleut—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘Aleut’’ or reported entries such as Alutiiq, Egegik, and

Pribilovian.

Asian or Pacific Islander—Includes persons who reported

in one of the Asian or Pacific Islander groups listed on the

questionnaire or who provided write-in responses such as

Thai, Nepali, or Tongan. A more detailed listing of the

groups comprising the Asian or Pacific Islander population

is presented in figure 2 below. In some data products,

information is presented separately for the Asian population and the Pacific Islander population.

Asian—Includes ‘‘Chinese,’’ ‘‘Filipino,’’ ‘‘Japanese,’’ ‘‘Asian

Indian,’’ ‘‘Korean,’’ ‘‘Vietnamese,’’ and ‘‘Other Asian.’’ In

some tables, ‘‘Other Asian’’ may not be shown separately,

but is included in the total Asian population.

Chinese—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘Chinese’’ or who identified themselves as Cantonese,

Tibetan, or Chinese American. In standard census reports,

persons who reported as ‘‘Taiwanese’’ or ‘‘Formosan’’

are included here with Chinese. In special reports on the

Asian or Pacific Islander population, information on

persons who identified themselves as Taiwanese are

shown separately.

Filipino—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘Filipino’’ or reported entries such as Philipino, Philipine,

or Filipino American.

Japanese—Includes persons who indicated their race

as ‘‘Japanese’’ and persons who identified themselves

as Nipponese or Japanese American.

Asian Indian—Includes persons who indicated their

race as ‘‘Asian Indian’’ and persons who identified

themselves as Bengalese, Bharat, Dravidian, East Indian,

or Goanese.

Korean—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘Korean’’ and persons who identified themselves as

Korean American.

Vietnamese—Includes persons who indicated their race

as ‘‘Vietnamese’’ and persons who identified themselves as Vietnamese American.

Cambodian—Includes persons who provided a write-in

response such as Cambodian or Cambodia.

Hmong—Includes persons who provided a write-in response

such as Hmong, Laohmong, or Mong.

Laotian—Includes persons who provided a write-in response

such as Laotian, Laos, or Lao.

Thai—Includes persons who provided a write-in response

such as Thai, Thailand, or Siamese.

Other Asian—Includes persons who provided a write-in

response of Bangladeshi, Burmese, Indonesian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan, Amerasian, or Eurasian. See figure 2

for other groups comprising ‘‘Other Asian.’’

Pacific Islander—Includes persons who indicated their

race as ‘‘Pacific Islander’’ by classifying themselves into

one of the following groups or identifying themselves as

one of the Pacific Islander cultural groups of Polynesian,

Micronesian, or Melanesian.

Hawaiian—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘Hawaiian’’ as well as persons who identified themselves as Part Hawaiian or Native Hawaiian.

Samoan—Includes persons who indicated their race as

‘‘Samoan’’ or persons who identified themselves as

American Samoan or Western Samoan.

Guamanian—Includes persons who indicated their race

as ‘‘Guamanian’’ or persons who identified themselves

as Chamorro or Guam.

Other Pacific Islander—Includes persons who provided

a write-in response of a Pacific Islander group such as

Tahitian, Northern Mariana Islander, Palauan, Fijian, or

a cultural group such as Polynesian, Micronesian, or

Melanesian. See figure 2 for other groups comprising

‘‘Other Pacific Islander.’’

Other Race—Includes all other persons not included in

the ‘‘White,’’ ‘‘Black,’’ ‘‘American Indian, Eskimo, or Aleut,’’

and the ‘‘Asian or Pacific Islander’’ race categories described

above. Persons reporting in the ‘‘Other race’’ category and

providing write-in entries such as multiracial, multiethnic,

mixed, interracial, Wesort, or a Spanish/ Hispanic origin

group (such as Mexican, Cuban, or Puerto Rican) are

included here.

Written entries to three categories on the race item—

‘‘Indian (Amer.),’’ ‘‘Other Asian or Pacific Islander (API),’’

and ‘‘Other race’’—were reviewed, edited, and coded by

subject matter specialists. (For more information on the

coding operation, see the section below that discusses

‘‘Comparability.’’)

The written entries under ‘‘Indian (Amer.)’’ and ‘‘Other

Asian or Pacific Islander (API)’’ were reviewed and coded

during 100-percent processing of the 1990 census questionnaires. A substantial portion of the entries for the

‘‘Other race’’ category also were reviewed, edited, and

coded during the 100-percent processing. The remaining

entries under ‘‘Other race’’ underwent review and coding

during sample processing. Most of the written entries

reviewed and coded during sample processing were those

indicating Hispanic origin such as Mexican, Cuban, or

Puerto Rican.

If the race entry for a member of a household was

missing on the questionnaire, race was assigned based

upon the reported entries of race by other household

members using specific rules of precedence of household

relationship. For example, if race was missing for the

daughter of the householder, then the race of her mother

(as female householder or female spouse) would be

assigned. If there was no female householder or spouse in

the household, the daughter would be assigned her father’s

(male householder) race. If race was not reported for

anyone in the household, the race of a householder in a

previously processed household was assigned. This procedure is a variation of the general imputation procedures

described in Appendix C, Accuracy of the Data.

Limitation of the Data—In the 1980 census, a relatively

high proportion (20 percent) of American Indians did not

report any tribal entry in the race item. Evaluation of the

pre-census tests indicated that changes made for the 1990

race item should improve the reporting of tribes in the rural

areas (especially on reservations) for the 1990 census.

The results for urban areas were inconclusive. Also, the

precensus tests indicated that there may be overreporting

of the Cherokee tribe. An evaluation of 1980 census data

showed overreporting of Cherokee in urban areas or areas

where the number of American Indians was sparse.

In the 1990 census, respondents sometimes did not fill

in a circle or filled the ‘‘Other race’’ circle and wrote in a

response, such as Arab, Polish, or African American in the

shared write-in box for ‘‘Other race’’ and ‘‘Other API’’

responses. During the automated coding process, these

responses were edited and assigned to the appropriate

racial designation. Also, some Hispanic origin persons did

not fill in a circle, but provided entries such as Mexican or

Puerto Rican. These persons were classified in the ‘‘Other

race’’ category during the coding and editing process.

There may be some minor differences between sample

data and 100-percent data because sample processing

included additional edits not included in the 100-percent

processing.

Comparability—Differences between the 1990 census

and earlier censuses affect the comparability of data for

certain racial groups and American Indian tribes. The 1990

census was the first census to undertake, on a 100-

percent basis, an automated review, edit, and coding

operation for written responses to the race item. The

automated coding system used in the 1990 census greatly

reduced the potential for error associated with a clerical

review. Specialists with a thorough knowledge of the race

subject matter reviewed, edited, coded, and resolved

inconsistent or incomplete responses. In the 1980 census,

there was only a limited clerical review of the race responses

on the 100-percent forms with a full clerical review conducted only on the sample questionnaires.

Another major difference between the 1990 and preceding censuses is the handling of the write-in responses

for the Asian or Pacific Islander populations. In addition to

the nine Asian or Pacific Islander categories shown on the

questionnaire under the spanner ‘‘Asian or Pacific Islander

(API),’’ the 1990 census race item provided a new residual

category, ‘‘Other API,’’ for Asian or Pacific Islander persons who did not report in one of the listed Asian or Pacific

Islander groups. During the coding operation, write-in

responses for ‘‘Other API’’ were reviewed, coded, and

assigned to the appropriate classification. For example, in

1990, a write-in entry of Laotian, Thai, or Javanese is

classified as ‘‘Other Asian,’’ while a write-in entry of

Tongan or Fijian is classified as ‘‘Other Pacific Islander.’’ In

the 1990 census, these persons were able to identify as

‘‘Other API’’ in both the 100-percent and sample operations.

In the 1980 census, the nine Asian or Pacific Islander

groups were also listed separately. However, persons not

belonging to these nine groups wrote in their specific racial

group under the ‘‘Other’’ race category. Persons with a

written entry such as Laotian, Thai, or Tongan, were

tabulated and published as ‘‘Other race’’ in the 100-

percent processing operation in 1980, but were reclassified as ‘‘Other Asian and Pacific Islander’’ in 1980 sample

tabulations. In 1980 special reports on the Asian or Pacific

Islander populations, data were shown separately for

‘‘Other Asian’’ and ‘‘Other Pacific Islander.’’

The 1970 questionnaire did not have separate race

categories for Asian Indian, Vietnamese, Samoan, and

Guamanian. These persons indicated their race in the

‘‘Other’’ category and later, through the editing process,

were assigned to a specific group. For example, in 1970,

Asian Indians were reclassified as ‘‘White,’’ while Vietnamese, Guamanians, and Samoans were included in the

‘‘Other’’ category.

Another difference between 1990 and preceding censuses is the approach taken when persons of Spanish/

Hispanic origin did not report in a specific race category but

reported as ‘‘Other race’’ or ‘‘Other.’’ These persons

commonly provided a write-in entry such as Mexican,

Venezuelan, or Latino. In the 1990 and 1980 censuses,

these entries remained in the ‘‘Other race’’ or ‘‘Other’’

category, respectively. In the 1970 census, most of these

persons were included in the ‘‘White’’ category.

REFERENCE WEEK

The data on labor force status and journey to work were

related to the reference week; that is, the calendar week

preceding the date on which the respondents completed

their questionnaires or were interviewed by enumerators.

This week is not the same for all respondents since the

enumeration was not completed in one week. The occurrence of holidays during the enumeration period could

affect the data on actual hours worked during the reference week, but probably had no effect on overall measurement of employment status (see the discussion below on

‘‘Comparability’’).

Comparability—The reference weeks for the 1990 and

1980 censuses differ in that Passover and Good Friday

occurred in the first week of April 1980, but in the second

week of April 1990. Many workers presumably took time

off for those observances. The differing occurrence of

these holidays could affect the comparability of the 1990

and 1980 data on actual hours worked for some areas if

the respective weeks were the reference weeks for a

significant number of persons. The holidays probably did

not affect the overall measurement of employment status

since this information was based on work activity during

the entire reference week.

RESIDENCE IN 1985

The data on residence in 1985 were derived from

answers to questionnaire item 14b, which asked for the

State (or foreign country), county, and place of residence

on April 1, 1985, for those persons reporting in question

14a that on that date they lived in a different house than

their current residence. Residence in 1985 is used in

conjunction with location of current residence to determine

the extent of residential mobility of the population and the

resulting redistribution of the population across the various

States, metropolitan areas, and regions of the country.

When no information on residence in 1985 was reported

for a person, information for other family members, if

available, was used to assign a location of residence in

1985. All cases of nonresponse or incomplete response

that were not assigned a previous residence based on

information from other family members were allocated the

previous residence of another person with similar characteristics who provided complete information.

The tabulation category, ‘‘Same house,’’ includes all

persons 5 years old and over who did not move during the

5 years as well as those who had moved but by 1990 had

returned to their 1985 residence. The category, ‘‘Different

house in the United States,’’ includes persons who lived in

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–31
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 32 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

the United States in 1985 but in a different house or

apartment from the one they occupied on April 1, 1990.

These movers are then further subdivided according to the

type of move.

In most tabulations, movers are divided into three

groups according to their 1985 residence: ‘‘Different house,

same county,’’ ‘‘Different county, same State,’’ and ‘‘Different State.’’ The last group may be further subdivided

into region of residence in 1985. The category, ‘‘Abroad,’’

includes those persons who were residing in a foreign

country, Puerto Rico, or an outlying area of the U.S. in

1985, including members of the Armed Forces and their

dependents. Some tabulations show movers who were

residing in Puerto Rico or an outlying area in 1985 separately from those residing in other countries.

In tabulations for metropolitan areas, movers are categorized according to the metropolitan status of their current and previous residences, resulting in such groups as

movers within an MSA/ PMSA, movers between MSA/

PMSA’s, movers from nonmetropolitan areas to MSA/ PMSA,

and movers from central cities to the remainder of an

MSA/ PMSA. In some tabulations, these categories are

further subdivided by size of MSA/ PMSA, region of current

or previous residence, or movers within or between central

cities and the remainder of the same or a different MSA/ PMSA.

The size categories used in some tabulations for both

1985 and 1990 residence refer to the populations of the

MSA/ PMSA on April 1, 1990; that is, at the end of the

migration interval.

Some tabulations present data on inmigrants, outmigrants, and net migration. ‘‘Inmigrants’’ are generally defined

as those persons who entered a specified area by crossing

its boundary from some point outside the area. In some

tabulations, movers from abroad are included in the number of inmigrants; in others, only movers within the United

States are included.

‘‘Outmigrants’’ are persons who depart from a specific

area by crossing its boundary to a point outside it, but

without leaving the United States. ‘‘Net migration’’ is

calculated by subtracting the number of outmigrants from

the number of inmigrants and, depending upon the particular tabulation, may or may not include movers from

abroad. The net migration for the area is net inmigration if

the result was positive and net outmigration if the result

was negative. In the tabulations, net outmigration is indicated by a minus sign (-).

Inmigrants and outmigrants for States include only

those persons who did not live in the same State in 1985

and 1990; that is, they exclude persons who moved

between counties within the same State. Thus, the sum of

the inmigrants to (or outmigrants from) all counties in any

State is greater than the number of inmigrants to (or

outmigrants from) that State. However, in the case of net

migration, the sum of the nets for all the counties within a

State equal the net for the State. In the same fashion, the

net migration for a division or region equals the sum of the

nets for the States comprising that division or region, while

the number of inmigrants and outmigrants for that division

or region is less than the sum of the inmigrants or

outmigrants for the individual States.

The number of persons who were living in a different

house in 1985 is somewhat less than the total number of

moves during the 5-year period. Some persons in the same

house at the two dates had moved during the 5-year period

but by the time of the census had returned to their 1985

residence. Other persons who were living in a different

house had made one or more intermediate moves. For

similar reasons, the number of persons living in a different

county, MSA/ PMSA, or State or moving between nonmetropolitan areas may be understated.

Comparability—Similar questions were asked on all previous censuses beginning in 1940, except the questions in

1950 referred to residence 1 year earlier rather than 5

years earlier. Although the questions in the 1940 census

covered a 5-year period, comparability with that census

was reduced somewhat because of different definitions

and categories of tabulation. Comparability with the 1960

and 1970 census is also somewhat reduced because

nonresponse was not allocated in those earlier censuses.

For the 1980 census, nonresponse was allocated in a

manner similar to the 1990 allocation scheme.

SCHOOL ENROLLMENT AND LABOR FORCE

STATUS

Tabulation of data on enrollment, educational attainment, and labor force status for the population 16 to 19

years old allows for calculation of the proportion of the age

group who are not enrolled in school and not high school

graduates or ‘‘dropouts’’ and an unemployment rate for the

‘‘dropout’’ population. Definitions of the three topics and

descriptions of the census items from which they were

derived are presented in ‘‘Educational Attainment,’’ ‘‘Employment Status,’’ and ‘‘School Enrollment and Type of School.’’

The published tabulations include both the civilian and

Armed Forces populations, but labor force status is provided for the civilian population only. Therefore, the component labor force statuses may not add to the total lines

enrolled in school, high school graduate, and not high

school graduate. The difference is Armed Forces.

Comparability—The tabulation of school enrollment by

labor force status is similar to that published in 1980

census reports. The 1980 census tabulation included a

single data line for Armed Forces; however, enrollment,

attainment, and labor force status data were shown for the

civilian population only. In 1970, a tabulation was included

for 16 to 21 year old males not attending school.

SCHOOL ENROLLMENT AND TYPE OF SCHOOL

Data on school enrollment were derived from answers

to questionnaire item 11, which was asked of a sample of

persons. Persons were classified as enrolled in school if

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 33 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

they reported attending a ‘‘regular’’ public or private school

or college at any time between February 1, 1990, and the

time of enumeration. The question included instructions to

‘‘include only nursery school, kindergarten, elementary

school, and schooling which would lead to a high school

diploma or a college degree’’ as regular school. Instructions included in the 1990 respondent instruction guide,

which was mailed with the census questionnaire, further

specified that enrollment in a trade or business school,

company training, or tutoring were not to be included

unless the course would be accepted for credit at a regular

elementary school, high school, or college. Persons who

did not answer the enrollment question were assigned the

enrollment status and type of school of a person with the

same age, race or Hispanic origin, and, at older ages, sex,

whose residence was in the same or a nearby area.

Public and Private School—Includes persons who attended

school in the reference period and indicated they were

enrolled by marking one of the questionnaire categories for

either ‘‘public school, public college’’ or ‘‘private school,

private college.’’ The instruction guide defines a public

school as ‘‘any school or college controlled and supported

by a local, county, State, or Federal Government.’’ Schools

supported and controlled primarily by religious organizations or other private groups are defined as private.

Persons who filled both the ‘‘public’’ and ‘‘private’’ circles

are edited to the first entry, ‘‘public.’’

Level of School in Which Enrolled—Persons who were

enrolled in school were classified as enrolled in ‘‘preprimary school,’’ ‘‘elementary or high school,’’ or ‘‘college’’

according to their response to question 12 (years of school

completed or highest degree received). Persons who were

enrolled and reported completing nursery school or less

were classified as enrolled in ‘‘preprimary school,’’ which

includes kindergarten. Similarly, enrolled persons who had

completed at least kindergarten, but not high school, were

classified as enrolled in elementary or high school. Enrolled

persons who reported completing high school or some

college or having received a post-secondary degree were

classified as enrolled in ‘‘college.’’ Enrolled persons who

reported completing the twelfth grade but receiving ‘‘NO

DIPLOMA’’ were classified as enrolled in high school. (For

more information on level of school, see the discussion

under ‘‘Educational Attainment.’’)

Comparability—School enrollment questions have been

included in the census since 1840; grade attended was

first asked in 1940; type of school was first asked in 1960.

Before 1940, the enrollment question in various censuses

referred to attendance in the preceding six months or the

preceding year. In 1940, the reference was to attendance

in the month preceding the census, and in the 1950 and

subsequent censuses, the question referred to attendance

in the two months preceding the census date.

Until the 1910 census, there were no instructions limiting the kinds of schools in which enrollment was to be

counted. Starting in 1910, the instructions indicated that

attendance at ‘‘school, college, or any educational institution’’ was to be counted. In 1930 an instruction to include

‘‘night school’’ was added. In the 1940 instructions, night

school, extension school, or vocational school were included

only if the school was part of the regular school system.

Correspondence school work of any kind was excluded. In

the 1950 instructions, the term ‘‘regular school’’ was

introduced, and it was defined as schooling which ‘‘advances

a person towards an elementary or high school diploma or

a college, university, or professional school degree.’’ Vocational, trade, or business schools were excluded unless

they were graded and considered part of a regular school

system. On-the-job training was excluded, as was nursery

school. Instruction by correspondence was excluded unless

it was given by a regular school and counted towards

promotion.

In 1960, the question used the term ‘‘regular school or

college’’ and a similar, though expanded, definition of

‘‘regular’’ was included in the instructions, which continued

to exclude nursery school. Because of the census’ use of

mailed questionnaires, the 1960 census was the first in

which instructions were written for the respondent as well

as enumerators. In the 1970 census, the questionnaire

used the phrase ‘‘regular school or college’’ and included

instructions to ‘‘count nursery school, kindergarten, and

schooling which leads to an elementary school certificate,

high school diploma, or college degree.’’ Instructions in a

separate document specified that to be counted as regular

school, nursery school must include instruction as an

important and integral phase of its program, and continued

the exclusion of vocational, trade, and business schools.

The 1980 census question was very similar to the 1970

question, but the separate instruction booklet did not

require that nursery school include substantial instructional

content in order to be counted.

The age range for which enrollment data have been

obtained and published has varied over the censuses.

Information on enrollment was recorded for persons of all

ages in the 1930 and 1940 and 1970 through 1990; for

persons under age 30, in 1950; and for persons age 5 to

34, in 1960. Most of the published enrollment figures

referred to persons age 5 to 20 in the 1930 census, 5 to 24

in 1940, 5 to 29 in 1950, 5 to 34 in 1960, 3 to 34 in 1970,

and 3 years old and over in 1980. This growth in the age

group whose enrollment was reported reflects increased

interest in the number of children in preprimary schools

and in the number of older persons attending colleges and

universities.

In the 1950 and subsequent censuses, college students

were enumerated where they lived while attending college,

whereas in earlier censuses, they generally were enumerated at their parental homes. This change should not affect

the comparability of national figures on college enrollment

since 1940; however, it may affect the comparability over

time of enrollment figures at sub-national levels.

Type of school was first introduced in the 1960 census,

where a separate question asked the enrolled persons

whether they were in a ‘‘public’’ or ‘‘private’’ school. Since

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–33
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 34 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

the 1970 census, the type of school was incorporated into

the response categories for the enrollment question and

the terms were changed to ‘‘public,’’ ‘‘parochial,’’ and

‘‘other private.’’ In the 1980 census, ‘‘private, church

related’’ and ‘‘private, not church related’’ replaced ‘‘parochial’’ and ‘‘other private.’’

Grade of enrollment was first available in the 1940

census, where it was obtained from responses to the

question on highest grade of school completed. Enumerators were instructed that ‘‘for a person still in school, the

last grade completed will be the grade preceding the one

in which he or she was now enrolled.’’ From 1950 to 1980,

grade of enrollment was obtained from the highest grade

attended in the two-part question used to measure educational attainment. (For more information, see the discussion under ‘‘Educational Attainment.’’) The form of the

question from which level of enrollment was derived in the

1990 census most closely corresponds to the question

used in 1940. While data from prior censuses can be

aggregated to provide levels of enrollment comparable to

the 1990 census, 1990 data cannot be disaggregated to

show single grade of enrollment as in previous censuses.

Data on school enrollment were also collected and

published by other Federal, State, and local government

agencies. Where these data were obtained from administrative records of school systems and institutions of higher

learning, they were only roughly comparable with data from

population censuses and household surveys because of

differences in definitions and concepts, subject matter

covered, time references, and enumeration methods. At

the local level, the difference between the location of the

institution and the residence of the student may affect the

comparability of census and administrative data. Differences between the boundaries of school districts and

census geographic units also may affect these comparisons.

SELF-CARE LIMITATION STATUS

The data on self-care limitation status were derived from

answers to questionnaire item 19b, which was asked of a

sample of persons 15 years old and over. Persons were

identified as having a self-care limitation if they had a

health condition that had lasted for 6 or more months and

which made it difficult to take care of their own personal

needs, such as dressing, bathing, or getting around inside

the home.

The term ‘‘health condition’’ referred to both physical

and mental conditions. A temporary health problem, such

as a broken bone that was expected to heal normally was

not considered a health condition.

Comparability—This was the first time that a question on

self-care limitation was included in the census.

SEX

The data on sex were derived from answers to questionnaire item 3, which was asked of all persons. For most

cases in which sex was not reported, it was determined by

the appropriate entry from the person’s given name and

household relationship. Otherwise, sex was imputed according to the relationship to the householder and the age and

marital status of the person. For more information on

imputation, see Appendix C, Accuracy of the Data.

Sex Ratio—A measure derived by dividing the total number of males by the total number of females and multiplying

by 100.

Comparability—A question on the sex of individuals has

been asked of the total population in every census.

VETERAN STATUS

Data on veteran status, period of military service, and

years of military service were derived from answers to

questionnaire item 17, which was asked of a sample of

persons.

Veteran Status—The data on veteran status were derived

from responses to question 17a. For census data products, a ‘‘civilian veteran’’ is a person 16 years old or over

who had served (even for a short time) but is not now

serving on active duty in the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force,

Marine Corps, or the Coast Guard, or who served as a

Merchant Marine seaman during World War II. Persons

who served in the National Guard or military Reserves are

classified as veterans only if they were ever called or

ordered to active duty not counting the 4-6 months for

initial training or yearly summer camps. All other civilians

16 years old and over are classified as nonveterans.

Period of Military Service—Persons who indicated in

question 17a that they had served on active duty (civilian

veterans) or were now on active duty were asked to

indicate in question 17b the period or periods in which they

served. Persons serving in at least one wartime period are

classified in their most recent wartime period. For example,

persons who served both during the Korean conflict and

the post-Korean peacetime era between February 1955

and July 1964 are classified in one of the two ‘‘Korean

conflict’’ categories. If the same person had also served

during the Vietnam era, he or she would instead be

included in the ‘‘Vietnam era and Korean conflict’’ category. The responses were edited to eliminate inconsistencies between reported period(s) of service and the age of

the person and to cancel out reported combinations of

periods containing unreasonable gaps (for example, a

person could not serve during World War I and the Korean

conflict without serving during World War II). Note that the

period of service categories shown in this report are

mutually exclusive.

Years of Military Service—Persons who indicated in

question 17a that they had served on active duty (civilian

veterans) or were now on active duty were asked to report

B–34 DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 35 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

the total number of years of active-duty service in question

17c. The data were edited for consistency with responses

to question 17b (Period of Military Service) and with the

age of the person.

Limitation of the Data—There may be a tendency for the

following kinds of persons to report erroneously that they

served on active duty in the Armed Forces: (a) persons

who served in the National Guard or military Reserves but

were never called to active duty; (b) civilian employees or

volunteers for the USO, Red Cross, or the Department of

Defense (or its predecessor Departments, War and Navy);

and (c) employees of the Merchant Marine or Public Health

Service. There may also be a tendency for persons to

erroneously round up months to the nearest year in

question 17c (for example, persons with 1 year 8 months

of active duty military service may mistakenly report ‘‘2

years’’).

Comparability—Since census data on veterans were

based on self-reported responses, they may differ from

data from other sources such as administrative records of

the Department of Defense. Census data may also differ

from Veterans Administration data on the benefits-eligible

population, since factors determining eligibility for veterans

benefits differ from the rules for classifying veterans in the

census.

The wording of the question on veteran status (17a) for

1990 was expanded from the veteran/ not veteran question in 1980 to include questions on current active duty

status and service in the military Reserves and the National

Guard. The expansion was intended to clarify the appropriate response for persons in the Armed Forces and for

persons who served in the National Guard or military

Reserve units only. For the first time in a census, service

during World War II as a Merchant Marine Seaman was

considered active-duty military service and persons with

such service were counted as veterans. An additional

period of military service, ‘‘September 1980 or later’’ was

added in 1990. As in 1970 and 1980, persons reporting

more than one period of service are shown in the most

recent wartime period of service category. Question 17c

(Years of Military Service) was new for 1990.

WORK DISABILITY STATUS

The data on work disability were derived from answers

to questionnaire item 18, which was asked of a sample of

persons 15 years old and over. Persons were identified as

having a work disability if they had a health condition that

had lasted for 6 or more months and which limited the kind

or amount of work they could do at a job or business. A

person was limited in the kind of work he or she could do

if the person had a health condition which restricted his or

her choice of jobs. A person was limited in the amount of

work if he or she was not able to work full-time. Persons

with a work disability were further classified as ‘‘Prevented

from working’’ or ‘‘Not prevented from working.’’

The term ‘‘health condition’’ referred to both physical

and mental conditions. A temporary health problem, such

as a broken bone that was expected to heal normally, was

not considered a health condition.

Comparability—The wording of the question on work

disability was the same in 1990 as in 1980. Information on

work disability was first collected in 1970. In that census,

the work disability question did not contain a clause

restricting the definition of disability to limitations caused

by a health condition that had lasted 6 or more months;

however, it did contain a separate question about the

duration of the disability.

WORK STATUS IN 1989

The data on work status in 1989 were derived from

answers to questionnaire item 31, which was asked of a

sample of persons. Persons 16 years old and over who

worked 1 or more weeks according to the criteria described

below are classified as ‘‘Worked in 1989.’’ All other

persons 16 years old and over are classified as ‘‘Did not

work in 1989.’’ Some tabulations showing work status in

1989 include 15 year olds; these persons, by definition, are

classified as ‘‘Did not work in 1989.’’

Weeks Worked in 1989

The data on weeks worked in 1989 were derived from

responses to questionnaire item 31b. Question 31b (Weeks

Worked in 1989) was asked of persons 16 years old and

over who indicated in question 31a that they worked in

1989.

The data pertain to the number of weeks during 1989 in

which a person did any work for pay or profit (including paid

vacation and paid sick leave) or worked without pay on a

family farm or in a family business. Weeks of active service

in the Armed Forces are also included.

Usual Hours Worked Per Week Worked in 1989

The data on usual hours worked per week worked in

1989 were derived from answers to questionnaire item

31c. This question was asked of persons 16 years old and

over who indicated that they worked in 1989.

The data pertain to the number of hours a person

usually worked during the weeks worked in 1989. The

respondent was to report the number of hours worked per

week in the majority of the weeks he or she worked in

1989. If the hours worked per week varied considerably

during 1989, the respondent was to report an approximate

average of the hours worked per week. The statistics on

usual hours worked per week in 1989 are not necessarily

related to the data on actual hours worked during the

census reference week (question 21b).

DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS B–35
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 36 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

Persons 16 years old and over who reported that they

usually worked 35 or more hours each week during the

weeks they worked are classified as ‘‘Usually worked full

time;’’ persons who reported that they usually worked 1 to

34 hours are classified as ‘‘Usually worked part time.’’

Year-Round Full-Time Workers—All persons 16 years

old and over who usually worked 35 hours or more per

week for 50 to 52 weeks in 1989.

Number of Workers in Family in 1989—The term ‘‘worker’’

as used for these data is defined based on the criteria for

Work Status in 1989.

Limitation of the Data—It is probable that the number of

persons who worked in 1989 and the number of weeks

worked are understated since there was some tendency

for respondents to forget intermittent or short periods of

employment or to exclude weeks worked without pay.

There may also be a tendency for persons not to include

weeks of paid vacation among their weeks worked; one

result may be that the census figures may understate the

number of persons who worked ‘‘50 to 52 weeks.’’

Comparability—The data on weeks worked collected in

the 1990 census were comparable with data from the

1980, 1970, and 1960 censuses, but may not be entirely

comparable with data from the 1940 and 1950 censuses.

Since the 1960 census, two separate questions have been

used to obtain this information. The first identified persons

with any work experience during the year and, thus,

indicated those persons for whom the questions on number of weeks worked applied. In 1940 and 1950, however,

the questionnaires contained only a single question on

number of weeks worked.

In 1970, persons responded to the question on weeks

worked by indicating one of six weeks-worked intervals. In

1980 and 1990, persons were asked to enter the specific

number of weeks they worked.

YEAR OF ENTRY

The data on year of entry were derived from answers to

questionnaire item 10, which was asked of a sample of

persons. The question, ‘‘When did this person come to the

United States to stay?’’ was asked of persons who indicated in the question on citizenship that they were not born

in the United States. (For more information, see the

discussion under ‘‘Citizenship.’’)

The 1990 census questions, tabulations, and census

data products about citizenship and year of entry include

no reference to immigration. All persons who were born

and resided outside the United States before becoming

residents of the United States have a date of entry. Some

of these persons are U.S. citizens by birth (e.g., persons

born in Puerto Rico or born abroad of American parents).

To avoid any possible confusion concerning the date of

entry of persons who are U.S. citizens by birth, the term,

‘‘year of entry’’ is used in this report instead of the term

‘‘year of immigration.’’

Limitation of the Data—The census questions on nativity,

citizenship, and year of entry were not designed to measure the degree of permanence of residence in the United

States. The phrase, ‘‘to stay’’ was used to obtain the year

in which the person became a resident of the United

States. Although the respondent was directed to indicate

the year he or she entered the country ‘‘to stay,’’ it was

difficult to ensure that respondents interpreted the phrase

correctly.

Comparability—A question on year of entry, (alternately

called ‘‘year of immigration’’) was asked in each decennial

census from 1890 to 1930, 1970, and 1980. In 1980, the

question on year of entry included six arrival time intervals.

The number of arrival intervals was expanded to ten in

1990. In 1980, the question on year of entry was asked

only of the foreign-born population. In 1990, all persons

who responded to the long-form questionnaire and were

not born in the United States were to complete the

question on year of entry.

DERIVED MEASURES

Census data products include various derived measures

such as medians, means, and percentages, as well as

certain rates and ratios. Derived measures which round to

less than 0.1 are not shown but indicated as zero. In

printed reports, zero is indicated by showing a dash (–).

Interpolation

Interpolation is frequently used in calculating medians

or quartiles based on interval data and in approximating

standard errors from tables. Linear interpolation is used to

estimate values of a function between two known values.

‘‘Pareto interpolation’’ is an alternative to linear interpolation. It is used by the Census Bureau in calculating median

income within intervals wider than $2,500. In Pareto interpolation, the logarithm of the median is derived by interpolating between the logarithms of the upper and lower

income limits of the median category.

Mean

This measure represents an arithmetic average of a set

of values. It is derived by dividing the sum of a group of

numerical items (or aggregate) by the total number of

items. Aggregates are used in computing mean values. For

example, mean family income is obtained by dividing the

aggregate of all income reported by persons in families by

B–36 DEFINITIONS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 37 SESS: 109 OUTPUT: Mon Jul 12 09:35:09 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ cp2/ usst/ appb

the total number of families. (Additional information on

means and aggregates is included in the separate explanations of many population and housing subjects.)

Median

This measure represents the middle value in a distribution. The median divides the total frequency into two equal

parts: one-half of the cases fall below the median and

one-half of the cases exceed the median. The median is

computed on the basis of the distribution as tabulated,

which is sometimes more detailed than the distribution

shown in specific census publications and other data

products.

In reports, if the median falls within the upper interval of

an open-ended distribution, the median is shown as the

initial value of the interval followed by a plus sign (+ ), or if

within the lower interval, the median is shown as the upper

value of the category followed by a minus sign (–). For

summary tape files, if the median falls within the upper or

lower interval, it is set to a specified value. (Additional

information on medians is included in the separate explanations of many population and housing subjects.)

Percentages, Rates, and Ratios

These measures are frequently presented in census

products and are used to compare two numbers or two

sets of measurements. These comparisons are made in

two ways: (1) subtraction which provides an absolute

measure of the difference between two items and (2) the

quotient of two numbers which provides a relative measure

of difference.

Quartile

This measure divides a distribution into four equal parts.

The first quartile (or lower quartile) is the value that defines

the upper limit of the lowest one-quarter of the cases. The

second quartile is the median. The third quartile (or upper

quartile) defines the lower limit of the upper one-quarter of

the cases in the distribution. The difference between the

upper and lower quartiles is called the interquartile range.

This interquartile range is less affected by wide variations

than is the mean. Quartiles are presented for certain

financial characteristics such as housing value and rent.

INTRODUCTION

The data contained in this data product are based on

the 1990 census sample. The data are estimates of the

actual figures that would have been obtained from a

complete count. Estimates derived from a sample are

expected to be different from the 100-percent figures

because they are subject to sampling and nonsampling

errors. Sampling error in data arises from the selection of

persons and housing units to be included in the sample.

Nonsampling error affects both sample and 100-percent

data, and is introduced as a result of errors that may occur

during the collection and processing phases of the census.

Provided below is a detailed discussion of both types of

errors and a description of the estimation procedures.

SAMPLE DESIGN

Every person and housing unit in the United States was

asked certain basic demographic and housing questions

(for example, race, age, marital status, housing value, or

rent). A sample of these persons and housing units was

asked more detailed questions about such items as income,

occupation, and housing costs in addition to the basic

demographic and housing information. The primary sampling unit for the 1990 census was the housing unit,

including all occupants. For persons living in group quarters, the sampling unit was the person. Persons in group

quarters were sampled at a 1-in-6 rate.

The sample designation method depended on the data

collection procedures. Approximately 95 percent of the

population was enumerated by the mailback procedure. In

these areas, the Bureau of the Census either purchased a

commercial mailing list, which was updated by the United

States Postal Service and Census Bureau field staff, or

prepared a mailing list by canvassing and listing each

address in the area prior to Census Day. These lists were

computerized and the appropriate units were electronically

designated as sample units. The questionnaires were

either mailed or hand-delivered to the addresses with

instructions to complete and mail back the form.

Housing units in governmental units with a precensus

(1988) estimated population of fewer than 2,500 persons

were sampled at 1-in-2. Governmental units were defined

for sampling purposes as all incorporated places, all

counties, all county equivalents such as parishes in Louisiana, and all minor civil divisions in Connecticut, Maine,

Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire,

New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin. Housing units in census tracts and

block numbering areas (BNA’s) with a precensus housing

unit count below 2,000 housing units were sampled at

1-in-6 for those portions not in small governmental units

(governmental units with a population less than 2,500).

Housing units within census tracts and BNA’s with 2,000 or

more housing units were sampled at 1-in-8 for those

portions not in small governmental units.

In list/ enumerate areas (about 5 percent of the population), each enumerator was given a blank address register

with designated sample lines. Beginning about Census

Day, the enumerator systematically canvassed an assigned

area and listed all housing units in the address register in

the order they were encountered. Completed questionnaires, including sample information for any housing unit

listed on a designated sample line, were collected. For all

governmental units with fewer than 2,500 persons in

list/ enumerate areas, a 1-in-2 sampling rate was used. All

other list/ enumerate areas were sampled at 1-in-6.

Housing units in American Indian reservations, tribal

jurisdiction statistical areas, and Alaska Native villages

were sampled according to the same criteria as other

governmental units, except the sampling rates were based

on the size of the American Indian and Alaska Native

population in those areas as measured in the 1980 census.

Trust lands were sampled at the same rate as their

associated American Indian reservations. Census designated places in Hawaii were sampled at the same rate as

governmental units because the Census Bureau does not

recognize incorporated places in Hawaii.

The purpose of using variable sampling rates was to

provide relatively more reliable estimates for small areas

and decrease respondent burden in more densely populated areas while maintaining data reliability. When all

sampling rates were taken into account across the Nation,

approximately one out of every six housing units in the

Nation was included in the 1990 census sample.

CONFIDENTIALITY OF THE DATA

To maintain the confidentiality required by law (Title 13,

United States Code), the Bureau of the Census applies a

confidentiality edit to the 1990 census data to assure that

ACCURACY OF THE DATA C–1
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 2 SESS: 85 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 14 13:41:57 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ sample/ usst/ appc

published data do not disclose information about specific

individuals, households, or housing units. As a result, a

small amount of uncertainty is introduced into the estimates of census characteristics. The sample itself provides adequate protection for most areas for which sample

data are published since the resulting data are estimates of

the actual counts; however, small areas require more

protection. The edit is controlled so that the basic structure

of the data is preserved.

The confidentiality edit is implemented by selecting a

small subset of individual households from the internal

sample data files and blanking a subset of the data items

on these household records. Responses to those data

items were then imputed using the same imputation procedures that were used for nonresponse. A larger subset

of households is selected for the confidentiality edit for

small areas to provide greater protection for these areas.

The editing process is implemented in such a way that the

quality and usefulness of the data were preserved.

ERRORS IN THE DATA

Since statistics in this data product are based on a

sample, they may differ somewhat from 100-percent figures that would have been obtained if all housing units,

persons within those housing units, and persons living in

group quarters had been enumerated using the same

questionnaires, instructions, enumerators, etc. The sample

estimate also would differ from other samples of housing

units, persons within those housing units, and persons

living in group quarters. The deviation of a sample estimate

from the average of all possible samples is called the

sampling error. The standard error of a sample estimate is

a measure of the variation among the estimates from all

the possible samples and thus is a measure of the

precision with which an estimate from a particular sample

approximates the average result of all possible samples.

The sample estimate and its estimated standard error

permit the construction of interval estimates with prescribed confidence that the interval includes the average

result of all possible samples. Described below is the

method of calculating standard errors and confidence

intervals for the data in this product.

In addition to the variability which arises from the

sampling procedures, both sample data and 100-percent

data are subject to nonsampling error. Nonsampling error

may be introduced during any of the various complex

operations used to collect and process census data. For

example, operations such as editing, reviewing, or handling questionnaires may introduce error into the data. A

detailed discussion of the sources of nonsampling error is

given in the section on ‘‘Control of Nonsampling Error’’ in

this appendix.

Nonsampling error may affect the data in two ways.

Errors that are introduced randomly will increase the

variability of the data and should therefore be reflected in

the standard error. Errors that tend to be consistent in one

direction will make both sample and 100-percent data

biased in that direction. For example, if respondents

consistently tend to under-report their income, then the

resulting counts of households or families by income

category will tend to be understated for the higher income

categories and overstated for the lower income categories.

Such biases are not reflected in the standard error.

Calculation of Standard Errors

Totals and Percentages—Tables A through C in this

appendix contain the information necessary to calculate

the standard errors of sample estimates in this data

product. To calculate the standard error, it is necessary to

know the basic standard error for the characteristic (given

in table A or B) that would result under a simple random

sample design (of persons, households, or housing units)

and estimation technique; the design factor for the particular characteristic estimated (given in table C); and the

number of persons or housing units in the tabulation area

and the percent of these in the sample. For machinereadable products, the percent-in-sample is included in a

data matrix on the file for each tabulation area. In printed

reports, the percent-in-sample is provided in data tables at

the end of the statistical tables that compose the report.

The design factors reflect the effects of the actual sample

design and complex ratio estimation procedure used for

the 1990 census.

The steps given below should be used to calculate the

standard error of an estimate of a total or a percentage

contained in this product. A percentage is defined here as

a ratio of a numerator to a denominator where the numerator is a subset of the denominator. For example, the

proportion of Black teachers is the ratio of Black teachers

to all teachers.

1. Obtain the standard error from table A or B (or use

the formula given below the table) for the estimated

total or percentage, respectively.

2. Find the geographic area to which the estimate

applies in the appropriate percent-in-sample table

or appropriate matrix, and obtain the person or

housing unit ‘‘percent-in-sample’’ figure for this

area. Use the person ‘‘percent-in-sample’’ figure for

person and family characteristics. Use the housing

unit ‘‘percent-in-sample’’ figure for housing unit

characteristics.

3. Use table C to obtain the design factor for the

characteristic (for example, employment status, school

enrollment) and the range that contains the percentin-sample with which you are working. Multiply the

basic standard error by this factor.

The unadjusted standard errors of zero estimates or of

very small estimated totals or percentages will approach

zero. This is also the case for very large percentages or

estimated totals that are close to the size of the tabulation

C–2 ACCURACY OF THE DATA
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 3 SESS: 85 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 14 13:41:57 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ sample/ usst/ appc

areas to which they correspond. Nevertheless, these estimated totals and percentages still are subject to sampling

and nonsampling variability, and an estimated standard

error of zero (or a very small standard error) is not

appropriate. For estimated percentages that are less than

2 or greater than 98, use the basic standard errors in table

B that appear in the ‘‘2 or 98’’ row. For an estimated total

that is less than 50 or within 50 of the total size of the

tabulation area, use a basic standard error of 16.

An illustration of the use of the tables is given in the

section entitled ‘‘Use of Tables to Compute Standard

Errors.’’

Sums and Differences—The standard errors estimated

from these tables are not directly applicable to sums of and

differences between two sample estimates. To estimate

the standard error of a sum or difference, the tables are to

be used somewhat differently in the following three situations:

1. For the sum of or difference between a sample

estimate and a 100-percent value, use the standard

error of the sample estimate. The complete count

value is not subject to sampling error.

2. For the sum of or difference between two sample

estimates, the appropriate standard error is approximately the square root of the sum of the two

individual standard errors squared; that is, for standard errors:

This method, however, will underestimate (overestimate) the standard error if the two items in a

sum are highly positively (negatively) correlated or if

the two items in a difference are highly negatively

(positively) correlated. This method may also be

used for the difference between (or sum of) sample

estimates from two censuses or from a census

sample and another survey. The standard error for

estimates not based on the 1990 census sample

must be obtained from an appropriate source outside of this appendix.

3. For the differences between two estimates, one of

which is a subclass of the other, use the tables

directly where the calculated difference is the estimate of interest. For example, to determine the

estimate of non-Black teachers, one may subtract

the estimate of Black teachers from the estimate of

total teachers. To determine the standard error of

the estimate of non-Black teachers apply the above

formula directly.

Ratios—Frequently, the statistic of interest is the ratio of

two variables, where the numerator is not a subset of the

denominator. For example, the ratio of teachers to students in public elementary schools. The standard error of

the ratio between two sample estimates is estimated as

follows:

1. If the ratio is a proportion, then follow the procedure

outlined for ‘‘Totals and Percentages.’’

2. If the ratio is not a proportion, then approximate the

standard error using the formula below.

Medians—For the standard error of the median of a

characteristic, it is necessary to examine the distribution

from which the median is derived, as the size of the base

and the distribution itself affect the standard error. An

approximate method is given here. As the first step,

compute one-half of the number on which the median is

based (refer to this result as N/ 2). Treat N/ 2 as if it were

an ordinary estimate and obtain its standard error as

instructed above. Compute the desired confidence interval

about N/ 2. Starting with the lowest value of the characteristic, cumulate the frequencies in each category of the

characteristic until the sum equals or first exceeds the

lower limit of the confidence interval about N/ 2. By linear

interpolation, obtain a value of the characteristic corresponding to this sum. This is the lower limit of the

confidence interval of the median. In a similar manner,

continue cumulating frequencies until the sum equals or

exceeds the count in excess of the upper limit of the

interval about N/ 2. Interpolate as before to obtain the

upper limit of the confidence interval for the estimated

median.

When interpolation is required in the upper open-ended

interval of a distribution to obtain a confidence bound, use

1.5 times the lower limit of the open-ended confidence

interval as the upper limit of the open-ended interval.

Confidence Intervals

A sample estimate and its estimated standard error may

be used to construct confidence intervals about the estimate. These intervals are ranges that will contain the

average value of the estimated characteristic that results

over all possible samples, with a known probability. For

example, if all possible samples that could result under the

1990 census sample design were independently selected

and surveyed under the same conditions, and if the

estimate and its estimated standard error were calculated

for each of these samples, then:

1. Approximately 68 percent of the intervals from one

estimated standard error below the estimate to one

estimated standard error above the estimate would

contain the average result from all possible samples;

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 4 SESS: 85 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 14 13:41:57 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ sample/ usst/ appc

2. Approximately 90 percent of the intervals from

1.645 times the estimated standard error below the

estimate to 1.645 times the estimated standard

error above the estimate would contain the average

result from all possible samples.

3. Approximately 95 percent of the intervals from two

estimated standard errors below the estimate to

two estimated standard errors above the estimate

would contain the average result from all possible

samples.

The intervals are referred to as 68 percent, 90 percent,

and 95 percent confidence intervals, respectively.

The average value of the estimated characteristic that

could be derived from all possible samples is or is not

contained in any particular computed interval. Thus, we

cannot make the statement that the average value has a

certain probability of falling between the limits of the

calculated confidence interval. Rather, one can say with a

specified probability of confidence that the calculated

confidence interval includes the average estimate from all

possible samples (approximately the 100-percent value).

Confidence intervals also may be constructed for the

ratio, sum of, or difference between two sample figures.

This is done by first computing the ratio, sum, or difference,

then obtaining the standard error of the ratio, sum, or

difference (using the formulas given earlier), and finally

forming a confidence interval for this estimated ratio, sum,

or difference as above. One can then say with specified

confidence that this interval includes the ratio, sum, or

difference that would have been obtained by averaging the

results from all possible samples.

The estimated standard errors given in this appendix do

not include all portions of the variability due to nonsampling error that may be present in the data. The standard

errors reflect the effect of simple response variance, but

not the effect of correlated errors introduced by enumerators, coders, or other field or processing personnel. Thus,

the standard errors calculated represent a lower bound of

the total error. As a result, confidence intervals formed

using these estimated standard errors may not meet the

stated levels of confidence (i.e., 68, 90, or 95 percent).

Thus, some care must be exercised in the interpretation of

the data in this data product based on the estimated

standard errors.

A standard sampling theory text should be helpful if the

user needs more information about confidence intervals

and nonsampling errors.

Use of Tables to Compute Standard Errors

The following is a hypothetical example of how to

compute a standard error of a total and a percentage.

Suppose a particular data table shows that for City A 9,948

persons out of all 15,888 persons age 16 years and over

were in the civilian labor force. The percent-in-sample

table lists City A with a percent-in-sample of 16.0 percent

(Persons column). The column in table C which includes

16.0 percent-in-sample shows the design factor to be 1.1

for ‘‘Employment status.’’

The basic standard error for the estimated total 9,948

may be obtained from table A or from the formula given

below table A. In order to avoid interpolation, the use of the

formula will be demonstrated here. Suppose that the total

population of City A was 21,220. The formula for the basic

standard error, SE, is

SE$9,948$ = √5$9,948$ $1$9,948$21,220$

= 163 persons.

The standard error of the estimated 9,948 persons 16

years and over who were in the civilian labor force is found

by multiplying the basic standard error 163 by the design

factor, 1.1 from table C. This yields an estimated standard

error of 179 for the total number of persons 16 years and

over in City A who were in the civilian labor force.

The estimated percent of persons 16 years and over

who were in the civilian labor force in City A is 62.6. From

table B, the unadjusted standard error is found to be

approximately 0.85 percentage points. The standard error

for the estimated 62.6 percent of persons 16 years and

over who were in the civilian labor force is 0.85 x 1.1 =

0.94 percentage points.

A note of caution concerning numerical values is necessary. Standard errors of percentages derived in this

manner are approximate. Calculations can be expressed

to several decimal places, but to do so would indicate more

precision in the data than is justifiable. Final results should

contain no more than two decimal places when the

estimated standard error is one percentage point (i.e.,

1.00) or more.

In the previous example, the standard error of the 9,948

persons 16 years and over in City A who were in the civilian

labor force was found to be 179. Thus, a 90 percent

confidence interval for this estimated total is found to be:

$9,948 $ 1.645$179$$ to $9,948 $ 1.645$179$$

or

9,654 to 10,242

One can say, with about 90 percent confidence, that this

interval includes the value that would have been obtained

by averaging the results from all possible samples.

The following is an illustration of the calculation of

standard errors and confidence intervals when a difference between two sample estimates is obtained. For

example, suppose the number of persons in City B age 16

years and over who were in the civilian labor force was

9,314 and the total number of persons 16 years and over

was 16,666. Further suppose the population of City B was

25,225. Thus, the estimated percentage of persons 16

years and over who were in the civilian labor force is 55.9

percent. The unadjusted standard error determined using

the formula provided at the bottom of table B is 0.86

C–4 ACCURACY OF THE DATA
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 5 SESS: 85 OUTPUT: Wed Apr 14 13:41:57 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ sample/ usst/ appc

percentage points. We find that City B had a percent-insample of 15.7. The range which includes 15.7 percent-insample in table C shows the design factor to be 1.1 for

‘‘Employment Status.’’ Thus, the approximate standard

error of the percentage (55.9 percent) is 0.86 x 1.1 = 0.95

percentage points.

Now suppose that one wished to obtain the standard

error of the difference between City A and City B of the

percentages of persons who were 16 years and over and

who were in the civilian labor force. The difference in the

percentages of interest for the two cities is:

62.6 - 55.9 = 6.7 percent.

Using the results of the previous example:

SE$6.7$ = √$SE$62.6$$2$$SE$55.9$$2= √$0.94$2$$0.95$2

= 1.34 percentage points

The 90 percent confidence interval for the difference is

formed as before:

$6.70 $ 1.645$1.34$$ to $6.70 $ 1.645$1.34$$

or

4.50 to 8.90

One can say with 90 percent confidence that the

interval includes the difference that would have been

obtained by averaging the results from all possible samples.

For reasonably large samples, ratio estimates are normally distributed, particularly for the census population.

Therefore, if we can calculate the standard error of a ratio

estimate then we can form a confidence interval around

the ratio. Suppose that one wished to obtain the standard

error of the ratio of the estimate of persons who were 16

years and over and who were in the civilian labor force in

City A to the estimate of persons who were 16 years and

over and who were in the civilian labor force in City B. The

ratio of the two estimates of interest is:

9948/ 9314 = 1.07

SE $1.07$ = $

9948

9314$ $ 1792

$9948$2 $

1882

$9314$2

= .029

Using the results above, the 90 percent confidence

interval for this ratio would be:

$1.07$1.645$.029$$ to $1.07$1.645$.029$$

or

1.02 to 1.12

ESTIMATION PROCEDURE

The estimates which appear in this publication were

obtained from an iterative ratio estimation procedure (iterative proportional fitting) resulting in the assignment of a

weight to each sample person or housing unit record. For

any given tabulation area, a characteristic total was estimated by summing the weights assigned to the persons or

housing units possessing the characteristic in the tabulation area. Estimates of family or household characteristics

were based on the weight assigned to the family member

designated as householder. Each sample person or housing unit record was assigned exactly one weight to be used

to produce estimates of all characteristics. For example, if

the weight given to a sample person or housing unit had

the value 6, all characteristics of that person or housing

unit would be tabulated with the weight of 6. The estimation procedure, however, did assign weights varying from

person to person or housing unit to housing unit. The

estimation procedure used to assign the weights was

performed in geographically defined ‘‘weighting areas.’’

Weighting areas generally were formed of contiguous

geographic units which agreed closely with census tabulation areas within counties. Weighting areas were required

to have a minimum sample of 400 persons. Weighting

areas never crossed State or county boundaries. In small

counties with a sample count below 400 persons, the

minimum required sample condition was relaxed to permit

the entire county to become a weighting area.

Within a weighting area, the ratio estimation procedure

for persons was performed in four stages. For persons, the

first stage applied 17 household-type groups. The second

stage used two groups: sampling rate of 1-in-2; sampling

rate less than 1-in-2. The third stage used the dichotomy

householders/ nonhouseholders. The fourth stage applied

180 aggregate age-sex-race-Hispanic origin categories.

The stages were as follows:

Within a weighting area, the first step in the estimation

procedure was to assign an initial weight to each sample

person record. This weight was approximately equal to the

inverse of the probability of selecting a person for the

census sample.

The next step in the estimation procedure, prior to

iterative proportional fitting, was to combine categories in

each of the four estimation stages, when needed to

increase the reliability of the ratio estimation procedure.

For each stage, any group that did not meet certain criteria

for the unweighted sample count or for the ratio of the

100-percent to the initially weighted sample count, was

combined, or collapsed, with another group in the same

stage according to a specified collapsing pattern. At the

fourth stage, an additional criterion concerning the number

of complete count persons in each race/ Hispanic origin

category was applied.

As the final step, the initial weights underwent four

stages of ratio adjustment applying the grouping procedures described above. At the first stage, the ratio of the

complete census count to the sum of the initial weights for

each sample person was computed for each stage I group.

The initial weight assigned to each person in a group was

then multiplied by the stage I group ratio to produce an

adjusted weight.

In stage II, the stage I adjusted weights were again

adjusted by the ratio of the complete census count to the

sum of the stage I weights for sample persons in each

stage II group. Next, at stage III, the stage II weights were

adjusted by the ratio of the complete census count to the

sum of the stage II weights for sample persons in each

stage III group. Finally, at stage IV, the stage III weights

were adjusted by the ratio of the complete census count to

the sum of the stage III weights for sample persons in each

stage IV group. The four stages of ratio adjustment were

performed two times (two iterations) in the order given

above. The weights obtained from the second iteration for

stage IV were assigned to the sample person records.

However, to avoid complications in rounding for tabulated

data, only whole number weights were assigned. For

example, if the final weight of the persons in a particular

group was 7.25 then 1/ 4 of the sample persons in this

group were randomly assigned a weight of 8, while the

remaining 3/ 4 received a weight of 7.

The ratio estimation procedure for housing units was

essentially the same as that for persons, except that

vacant units were treated differently. The occupied housing unit ratio estimation procedure was done in four stages,

and the vacant housing unit ratio estimation procedure was

done in a single stage. The first stage for occupied housing

units applied 16 household type categories, while the

second stage used the two sampling categories described

above for persons. The third stage applied three units-instructure categories; i.e. single units, multi-unit less than 10

and multi-unit 10 or more. The fourth stage could potentially use 200 tenure-race-Hispanic origin-value/ rent groups.

The stages for ratio estimation for housing units were as

follows:

The estimates produced by this procedure realize some

of the gains in sampling efficiency that would have resulted

if the population had been stratified into the ratio estimation groups before sampling, and if the sampling rate had

been applied independently to each group. The net effect

is a reduction in both the standard error and the possible

bias of most estimated characteristics to levels below what

would have resulted from simply using the initial, unadjusted weight. A by-product of this estimation procedure is

that the estimates from the sample will, for the most part,

be consistent with the complete count figures for the

population and housing unit groups used in the estimation

procedure.

Control of Nonsampling Error

As mentioned earlier, both sample and 100-percent

data are subject to nonsampling error. This component of

error could introduce serious bias into the data, and the

total error could increase dramatically over that which

would result purely from sampling. While it is impossible to

completely eliminate nonsampling error from an operation

as large and complex as the decennial census, the Bureau

of the Census attempted to control the sources of such

error during the collection and processing operations.

Described below are the primary sources of nonsampling

error and the programs instituted for control of this error.

The success of these programs, however, was contingent

upon how well the instructions actually were carried out

during the census. As part of the 1990 census evaluation

program, both the effects of these programs and the

amount of error remaining after their application will be

evaluated.

Undercoverage—It is possible for some households or

persons to be missed entirely by the census. The undercoverage of persons and housing units can introduce

biases into the data.

Several coverage improvement programs were implemented during the development of the census address list

and census enumeration and processing to minimize undercoverage of the population and housing units. These

programs were developed based on experience from the

1980 census and results from the 1990 census testing

cycle. In developing and updating the census address list,

the Census Bureau used a variety of specialized procedures in different parts of the country.

• In the large urban areas, the Census Bureau purchased

and geocoded address lists. Concurrent with geocoding,

the United States Postal Service (USPS) reviewed and

updated this list. After the postal check, census enumerators conducted a dependent canvass and update operation. In the fall of 1989, local officials were given the

opportunity to examine block counts of address listings

(local review) and identify possible errors. Prior to mailout, the USPS conducted a final review.

• In small cities, suburban areas, and selected rural parts

of the country, the Census Bureau created the address

list through a listing operation. The USPS reviewed and

updated this list, and the Census Bureau reconciled

USPS corrections and updated through a field operation.

In the fall of 1989, local officials participated in reviewing

block counts of address listings. Prior to mailout, the

USPS conducted a final review.

• The Census Bureau (rather than the USPS) conducted a

listing operation in the fall of 1989 and delivered census

questionnaires in selected rural and seasonal housing

areas in March of 1990. In some inner-city public housing developments, whose addresses had been obtained

via the purchased address list noted above, census

questionnaires were also delivered by Census Bureau

enumerators.

Coverage improvement programs continued during and

after mailout. A recheck of units initially classified as

vacant or nonexistent improved further the coverage of

persons and housing units. All local officials were given the

opportunity to participate in a post-census local review,

and census enumerators conducted an additional recanvass. In addition, efforts were made to improve the coverage of unique population groups, such as the homeless

and parolees/ probationers. Computer and clerical edits

and telephone and personal visit followup also contributed

to improved coverage.

More extensive discussion of the programs implemented

to improve coverage will be published by the Census

Bureau when the evaluation of the coverage improvement

program is completed.

Respondent and Enumerator Error—The person answering the questionnaire or responding to the questions posed

by an enumerator could serve as a source of error,

although the questions were phrased as clearly as possible based on precensus tests, and detailed instructions for

completing the questionnaire were provided to each household. In addition, respondents’ answers were edited for

completeness and consistency, and problems were followed up as necessary.

The enumerator may misinterpret or otherwise incorrectly record information given by a respondent; may fail to

collect some of the information for a person or household;

or may collect data for households that were not designated as part of the sample. To control these problems,

the work of enumerators was monitored carefully. Field

staff were prepared for their tasks by using standardized

training packages that included hands-on experience in

using census materials. A sample of the households

interviewed by enumerators for nonresponse were reinterviewed to control for the possibility of data for fabricated

persons being submitted by enumerators. Also, the estimation procedure was designed to control for biases that

would result from the collection of data from households

not designated for the sample.

Processing Error—The many phases involved in processing the census data represent potential sources for the

introduction of nonsampling error. The processing of the

census questionnaires includes the field editing, followup,

and transmittal of completed questionnaires; the manual

coding of write-in responses; and the electronic data

processing. The various field, coding and computer operations undergo a number of quality control checks to

insure their accurate application.

Nonresponse—Nonresponse to particular questions on

the census questionnaire allows for the introduction of bias

into the data, since the characteristics of the nonrespondents have not been observed and may differ from those

reported by respondents. As a result, any imputation

procedure using respondent data may not completely

reflect this difference either at the elemental level (individual person or housing unit) or on the average. Some

protection against the introduction of large biases is afforded

by minimizing nonresponse. In the census, nonresponse

was reduced substantially during the field operations by

the various edit and followup operations aimed at obtaining

a response for every question. Characteristics for the

nonresponses remaining after this operation were imputed

by the computer by using reported data for a person or

housing unit with similar characteristics.

EDITING OF UNACCEPTABLE DATA

The objective of the processing operation is to produce

a set of data that describes the population as accurately

and clearly as possible. To meet this objective, questionnaires were edited during field data collection operations

for consistency, completeness, and acceptability. Questionnaires also were reviewed by census clerks for omissions, certain specific inconsistencies, and population coverage. For example, write-in entries such as ‘‘Don’t know’’

or ‘‘NA’’ were considered unacceptable. For some district

offices, the initial edit was automated; however, for the

majority of the district offices, it was performed by clerks.

As a result of this operation, a telephone or personal visit

followup was made to obtain missing information. Potential

coverage errors were included in the followup, as well as a

sample of questionnaires with omissions and/ or inconsistencies.

Subsequent to field operations, remaining incomplete or

inconsistent information on the questionnaires was assigned

using imputation procedures during the final automated

edit of the collected data. Imputations, or computer assignments of acceptable codes in place of unacceptable

entries or blanks, are needed most often when an entry for

a given item is lacking or when the information reported for

a person or housing unit on that item is inconsistent with

other information for that same person or housing unit. As

in previous censuses, the general procedure for changing

unacceptable entries was to assign an entry for a person

or housing unit that was consistent with entries for persons

or housing units with similar characteristics. The assignment of acceptable codes in place of blanks or unacceptable entries enhances the usefulness of the data.

Another way in which corrections were made during the

computer editing process was through substitution; that is,

the assignment of a full set of characteristics for a person

or housing unit. When there was an indication that a

housing unit was occupied but the questionnaire contained

no information for the people within the household or the

occupants were not listed on the questionnaire, a previously accepted household was selected as a substitute,

and the full set of characteristics for the substitute was

duplicated. The assignment of the full set of housing

characteristics occurred when there was no housing information available. If the housing unit was determined to be

occupied, the housing characteristics were assigned from

a previously processed occupied unit. If the housing unit

was vacant, the housing characteristics were assigned

from a previously processed vacant unit.

Collection and Processing Procedures

Enumeration and Residence Rules ------------------------- D–1

ENUMERATION AND RESIDENCE RULES

In accordance with census practice dating back to the

first United States census in 1790, each person was to be

enumerated as an inhabitant of his or her ‘‘usual residence’’ in the 1990 census. Usual residence is the place

where the person lives and sleeps most of the time or

considers to be his or her usual residence. This place is not

necessarily the same as the person’s legal residence or

voting residence. In the vast majority of cases, however,

the use of these different bases of classification would

produce substantially the same statistics, although there

might be appreciable differences for a few areas.

The implementation of this practice has resulted in the

establishment of rules for certain categories of persons

whose usual place of residence is not immediately apparent. Furthermore, this practice means that persons were

not always counted as residents of the place where they

happened to be staying on Census Day (April 1, 1990).

Enumeration Rules

Each person whose usual residence was in the United

States was to be included in the census, without regard to

the person’s legal status or citizenship. In a departure from

earlier censuses, foreign diplomatic personnel participated

voluntarily in the census, regardless of their residence on

or off the premises of an embassy. As in previous censuses, persons in the United States specifically excluded

from the census were foreign travelers who had not

established a residence.

Americans with a usual residence outside the United

States were not enumerated in the 1990 census. United

States military and Federal civilian employees, and their

dependents overseas, are included in the population counts

for States for purposes of Congressional apportionment,

but are excluded from all other tabulations for States and

their subdivisions. The counts of United States military and

Federal civilian employees, and their dependents, were

obtained from administrative records maintained by Federal departments and agencies. Other Americans living

overseas, such as employees of international agencies

and private businesses and students, were not enumerated, nor were their counts obtained from administrative

sources. On the other hand, Americans temporarily overseas were to be enumerated at their usual residence in the

United States.

Residence Rules

Each person included in the census was to be counted

at his or her usual residence—the place where he or she

lives and sleeps most of the time or the place where the

person considers to be his or her usual home. If a person

had no usual residence, the person was to be counted

where he or she was staying on April 1, 1990.

Persons temporarily away from their usual residence,

whether in the United States or overseas, on a vacation or

on a business trip, were counted at their usual residence.

Persons who occupied more than one residence during the

year were counted at the one they considered to be their

usual residence. Persons who moved on or near Census

Day were counted at the place they considered to be their

usual residence.

Persons in the Armed Forces—Members of the Armed

Forces were counted as residents of the area in which the

installation was located, either on the installation or in the

surrounding community. Family members of Armed Forces

personnel were counted where they were living on Census

Day (for example, with the Armed Forces person or at

another location).

Each Navy ship not deployed to the 6th or 7th Fleet was

attributed to the municipality that the Department of the

Navy designated as its homeport. If the homeport included

more than one municipality, ships berthed there on Census

Day were assigned by the Bureau of the Census to the

municipality in which the land immediately adjacent to the

dock or pier was actually located. Ships attributed to the

homeport, but not physically present and not deployed to

the 6th or 7th Fleet, were assigned to the municipality

named on the Department of the Navy’s homeport list.

These rules also apply to Coast Guard vessels.

Personnel assigned to each Navy and Coast Guard ship

were given the opportunity to report a residence off the

ship. Those who did report an off-ship residence in the

communities surrounding the homeport were counted there;

those who did not were counted as residents of the ship.

Personnel on Navy ships deployed to the 6th or 7th Fleet

on Census Day were considered to be part of the overseas

population.

Persons on Maritime Ships—Persons aboard maritime

ships who reported an off-ship residence were counted at

that residence. Those who did not were counted as

residents of the ship, and were attributed as follows:

1. The port where the ship was docked on Census Day,

if that port was in the United States or its territories.

2. The port of departure if the ship was at sea, provided

the port was in the United States or its territories.

3. The port of destination in the United States or its

territories, if the port of departure of a ship at sea was

a foreign port.

4. The overseas population if the ship was docked at a

foreign port or at sea between foreign ports. (These

persons were not included in the overseas population

for apportionment purposes.)

Persons Away at School—College students were counted

as residents of the area in which they were living while

attending college, as they have been since the 1950

census. Children in boarding schools below the college

level were counted at their parental home.

Persons in Institutions—Persons under formally authorized, supervised care or custody, such as in Federal or

State prisons; local jails; Federal detention centers; juvenile institutions; nursing, convalescent, and rest homes for

the aged and dependent; or homes, schools, hospitals, or

wards for the physically handicapped, mentally retarded,

or mentally ill, were counted at these places.

Persons Away From Their Usual Residence on Census

Day—Migrant agricultural workers who did not report a

usual residence elsewhere were counted as residents of

the place where they were on Census Day. Persons in

worker camps who did not report a usual residence

elsewhere were counted as residents of the camp where

they were on Census Day.

In some parts of the country, natural disasters displaced

significant numbers of households from their usual place of

residence. If these persons reported a destroyed or damaged residence as their usual residence, they were counted

at that location.

Persons away from their usual residence were counted

by means of interviews with other members of their

families, resident managers, or neighbors.

DATA COLLECTION PROCEDURES

The 1990 census was conducted primarily through

self-enumeration. The questionnaire packet included general information about the 1990 census and an instruction

guide explaining how to complete the questionnaire. Spanishlanguage questionnaires and instruction guides were available on request. Instruction guides also were available in

32 other languages.

Enumeration of Housing Units

Each housing unit in the country received one of two

versions of the census questionnaire:

1. A short-form questionnaire that contained a limited

number of basic population and housing questions;

these questions were asked of all persons and housing units and are often referred to as 100-percent

questions.

2. A long-form questionnaire that contained the 100-

percent items and a number of additional questions; a

sampling procedure was used to determine those

housing units that were to receive the long-form

questionnaire.

Three sampling rates were employed. For slightly more

than one-half of the country, one in every six housing units

(about 17 percent) received the long-form or sample

questionnaire. In functioning local governmental units (counties and incorporated places, and in some parts of the

country, towns and townships) estimated to have fewer

than 2,500 inhabitants, every other housing unit (50 percent) received the sample questionnaire in order to enhance

the reliability of the sample data for these small areas. For

census tracts and block numbering areas having more

than 2,000 housing units in the Census Bureau’s address

files, one in every eight housing units (about 13 percent)

received a sample questionnaire, providing reliable statistics for these areas while permitting the Census Bureau to

stay within a limit of 17.7 million sample questionnaires, or

a one-in-six sample, nationwide.

The mail-out/ mail-back procedure was used mainly in

cities, suburban areas, towns, and rural areas where

mailing addresses consisted of a house number and street

name. In these areas, the Census Bureau developed

mailing lists that included about 88.4 million addresses.

The questionnaires were delivered through the mail and

respondents were to return them by mail. Census questionnaires were delivered 1 week before Census Day

(April 1, 1990)

The update/ leave/ mail-back method was used mainly

in densely populated rural areas where it was difficult to

develop mailing lists because mailing addresses did not

use house number and street name. The Census Bureau

compiled lists of housing units in advance of the census.

Enumerators delivered the questionnaires, asked respondents to return them by mail, and added housing units not

on the mailing lists. This method was used mainly in the

South and Midwest, and also included some high-rise,

low-income urban areas. A variation of this method was

used in urban areas having large numbers of boarded-up

buildings. About 11 million housing units were enumerated

using this method.

The list/ enumerate method (formerly called conventional or door-to-door enumeration) was used mainly in

very remote and sparsely-settled areas. The United States

 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 3 SESS: 25 OUTPUT: Mon Sep 21 14:34:30 1992 / node2/ F main F / 90dec/ all/ usst/ appd

Postal Service delivered unaddressed short-form questionnaires before Census Day. Starting a week before Census

Day, enumerators canvassed these areas, checked that all

housing units received a questionnaire, created a list of all

housing units, completed long-form questionnaires, and

picked up the completed short-form questionnaires. This

method was used mainly in the West and Northeast to

enumerate an estimated 6.5 million housing units.

Followup

Nonresponse Followup—In areas where respondents

were to mail back their questionnaires, an enumerator

visited each address from which a questionnaire was not

received.

Coverage and Edit-Failure Followup—In the mail-back

areas, some households returned a questionnaire that did

not meet specific quality standards because of incomplete

or inconsistent information, or the respondent had indicated difficulty in deciding who was to be listed on the

questionnaire. These households were contacted by telephone or by personal visit to obtain the missing information

or to clarify who was to be enumerated in the household. In

areas where an enumerator picked up the questionnaires,

the enumerator checked the respondent-filled questionnaire for completeness and consistency.

Special Enumeration Procedures

Special procedures and questionnaires were used for

the enumeration of persons in group quarters, such as

college dormitories, nursing homes, prisons, military barracks, and ships. The questionnaires (Individual Census

Reports, Military Census Reports, and Shipboard Census

Reports) included the 100-percent population questions

but did not include any housing questions. In all group

quarters, all persons were asked the basic population

questions; in most group quarters, additional questions

were asked of a sample (one-in-six) of persons.

Shelter and Street Night (S-Night)

The Census Bureau collected data for various components of the homeless population at different stages in the

1990 census. ‘‘Shelter and Street Night’’ (S-Night) was a

special census operation to count the population in four

types of locations where homeless people are found. On

the evening of March 20, 1990, and during the early

morning hours of March 21, 1990, enumerators counted

persons in pre-identified locations:

1. Emergency shelters for the homeless population (public and private; permanent and temporary).

2. Shelters with temporary lodging for runaway youths.

3. Shelters for abused women and their children.

4. Open locations in streets or other places not intended

for habitation.

Emergency shelters include all hotels and motels costing $12 or less (excluding taxes) per night regardless of

whether persons living there considered themselves to be

homeless, hotels and motels (regardless of cost) used

entirely to shelter homeless persons, and pre-identified

rooms in hotels and motels used for homeless persons

and families. Enumeration in shelters usually occurred

from 6 p.m. to midnight; street enumeration, from 2 a.m. to

4 a.m.; abandoned and boarded-up buildings from 4 a.m. to

8 a.m.; and shelters for abused women, from 6 p.m. on

March 20 to noon on March 21.

Other components, which some consider as part of the

homeless population, were enumerated as part of regular

census operations. These include persons doubled up with

other families, as well as persons with no other usual home

living in transient sites, such as commercial campgrounds,

maternity homes for unwed mothers, and drug/ alcohol

abuse detoxification centers. In institutions, such as local

jails and mental hospitals, the Census Bureau does not

know who has a usual home elsewhere; therefore, even

though some are literally homeless, these persons cannot

be identified separately as a component of the homeless

population.

There is no generally agreed-upon definition of ‘‘the

homeless,’’ and there are limitations in the census count

that prevent obtaining a total count of the homeless

population under any definition. As such, the Census

Bureau does not have a definition and will not provide a

total count of ‘‘the homeless.’’ Rather, the Census Bureau

will provide counts and characteristics of persons found at

the time of the census in selected types of living arrangements. These selected components can be used as building blocks to construct a count of homeless persons

appropriate to particular purposes as long as the data

limitations are taken into account.

In preparation for ‘‘Shelter-and-Street-Night’’ enumeration, the regional census centers (RCC’s) mailed a certified

letter (Form D-33 (L)) to the highest elected official of each

active functioning government of the United States (more

than 39,000) requesting them to identify:

1. All shelters with sleeping facilities (permanent and

temporary, such as church basements, armories,

public buildings, and so forth, that could be open on

March 20).

2. Hotels and motels used to house homeless persons

and families.

3. A list of outdoor locations where homeless persons

tend to be at night.

4. Places such as bus or train stations, subway stations,

airports, hospital emergency rooms, and so forth,

where homeless persons seek shelter at night.

5. The specific addresses of abandoned or boarded-up

buildings where homeless persons were thought to

stay at night.

The letter from the RCC’s to the governmental units

emphasized the importance of listing night-time congregating sites. The list of shelters was expanded using information from administrative records and informed local sources.

The street sites were limited to the list provided by the

jurisdictions. All governmental units were eligible for ‘‘Shelter and Street Night.’’ For cities with 50,000 or more

persons, the Census Bureau took additional steps to

update the list of shelter and street locations if the local

jurisdiction did not respond to the certified letter. Smaller

cities and rural areas participated if the local jurisdiction

provided the Census Bureau a list of shelters or open

public places to visit or if shelters were identified through

our inventory development, local knowledge update, or

during the Special Place Prelist operation.

The Census Bureau encouraged persons familiar with

homeless persons and the homeless themselves to apply

as enumerators. This recruiting effort was particularly

successful in larger cities.

For shelters, both long- and short-form Individual Census Reports (ICR’s) were distributed. For street enumeration, only short-form ICR’s were used. Persons in shelters

and at street locations were asked the basic population

questions. Additional questions about social and economic

characteristics were asked of a sample of persons in

shelters only.

Enumerators were instructed not to ask who was homeless; rather, they were told to count all persons (including

children) staying overnight at the shelters, and everyone

they saw on the street except the police, other persons in

uniform, and persons engaged in employment or obvious

money-making activities other than begging and panhandling.

At both shelter and street sites, persons found sleeping

were not awakened to answer questions. Rather, the

enumerator answered the sex and race questions by

observation and estimated the person’s age to the best of

his or her ability. In shelters, administrative records and

information from the shelter operator were used, when

available, for persons who were already asleep.

Less than 1 percent of shelters refused to participate in

the census count at first. By the end of the census period,

most of those eventually cooperated and the number of

refusals had been reduced to a few. For the final refusals,

head counts and population characteristics were obtained

by enumerators standing outside such shelters and counting people as they left in the morning.

The ‘‘street’’ count was restricted to persons who were

visible when the enumerator came to the open, public

locations that had been identified by local jurisdictions.

Homeless persons who were well hidden, moving about, or

in locations other than those identified by the local governments were likely missed. The number missed will

never be known and there is no basis to make an estimate

of the number missed from census data. The count of

persons in open, public places was affected by many

factors, including the extra efforts made to encourage

people to go to shelters for ‘‘Shelter and Street Night,’’ the

weather (which was unusually cold in many parts of the

country), the presence of the media, and distrust of the

census. Expectations of the number of homeless persons

on the street cannot be based on the number seen during

the day because the night-time situation is normally very

different as more homeless persons are in shelters or very

well hidden.

For both ‘‘Shelter-and-Street-Night’’ locations, the Census Bureau assumed that the usual home of those enumerated was in the block where they were found (shelter

or street).

The ‘‘Shelter-and-Street-Night’’ operation replaced and

expanded the 1980 Mission Night (M-Night) and Casual

Count operations. These two operations were aimed at

counting the population who reported having no usual

residence. M-Night was conducted a week after Census

Day, in April 1980. Enumerators visited hotels, motels, and

similar places costing $4 or less each night; missions,

flophouses, local jails and similar places at which the

average length of stay was 30 days or less; and nonshelter

locations, such as bus depots, train stations, and all night

movie theaters. Questions were asked of everyone, regardless of age. Enumerators conducted M-Night up to midnight on April 8, 1980, and returned the next morning to

collect any forms completed after midnight.

The Casual Count operation was conducted in May

1980 at additional nonshelter locations, such as street

corners, pool halls, welfare and employment offices. This

operation lasted for approximately 2 weeks. Casual Count

was conducted during the day only in selected large

central cities. Only persons who appeared to be at least 15

years of age were asked if they had been previously

enumerated. Casual Count was actually a coverage-improvement operation. It was not specifically an operation to

count homeless persons living in the streets. Persons were

excluded if they said they had a usual home outside the

city because it was not cost effective to check through

individual questionnaires in another city to try to find the

person.

PROCESSING PROCEDURES

Respondents returned many census questionnaires by

mail to 1 of over 344 census district offices or to one of six

processing offices. In these offices, the questionnaires

were ‘‘checked in’’ and edited for completeness and

consistency of the responses. After this initial processing

had been performed, all questionnaires were sent to the

processing offices.

In the processing offices, the household questionnaires

were microfilmed and processed by the Film Optical

Sensing Device for Input to Computers (FOSDIC). For

most items on the questionnaire, the information supplied

by the respondent was indicated by filling circles in predesignated positions. FOSDIC electronically ‘‘read’’ these

filled circles from the microfilm copy of the questionnaire

and transferred the information to computer tape. The

computer tape did not include individual names, addresses,

or handwritten responses.

The data processing was performed in several stages.

All questionnaires were microfilmed, ‘‘read’’ by FOSDIC,

and transferred to computer disk. Selected written entries

in the race question on both the short and long forms were

keyed from the microfilm and coded using the data base

developed from the 1980 census and subsequent content

and operational tests. Keying of other written entries on

the long forms occurred in the seven processing offices.

The information (for example, income dollar amounts or

homeowner shelter costs) on these keyed files was merged

with the FOSDIC data or processed further through one of

three automated coding programs. The codes for industry,

occupation, place-of-birth, migration, place-of-work, ancestry, language, relationship, race, and Hispanic origin were

merged with the FOSDIC data for editing, weighting, and

tabulating operations at Census Bureau headquarters. All

responses to the questions on Individual Census Reports

(ICR’s), Military Census Reports (MCR’s), and Shipboard

Census Reports (SCR’s) were keyed, not processed by

microfilm or FOSDIC.

Sources of Assistance ------------------------------------- F–5

The 1990 census data products, being released during

1991-93, are available in a variety of new and traditional

media. The Census Bureau has increased the product

options available to data users in an effort to meet a variety

of requirements and maximize the usefulness of the data.

For example,laser discs,called CD-ROM (compact disc—readonly memory), are a new data delivery medium.

The Census Bureau also has expanded services and

sources of assistance available to data users. For example, the State Data Center Program has been expanded to

include over 1,400 organizations to provide data and

services to the public.

This appendix provides a detailed introduction to the

1990 census data products and related materials, such as

maps and reference publications. It concludes by describing sources of assistance and other Census Bureau data

available to the public.

DATA PRODUCTS

Printed reports and computer tape files traditionally are

the most widely used products. The Census Bureau also

offers data on microfiche, on CD-ROM laser discs, and

through its online service, CENDATATM. These various

products are described below. For information about prices

and how to order, write or call Customer Services. (See the

‘‘Sources of Assistance’’ section for the address and

phone number.)

The data products present statistics about the subjects

covered in the 1990 census questionnaires. These subjects are listed in figure 1, page F–7. As the figure shows,

there are 100-percent subjects (those covered in questions asked of everyone or about every housing unit) and

sample subjects (those covered in questions asked at

about one out of every six housing units). Generally, a data

product presents either 100-percent data prepared by

tabulating the responses to the 100-percent questions

from all questionnaires, or sample data prepared by tabulating only the responses to the 100-percent and sample

questions from the ‘‘long-form’’ questionnaires. Two report

series, 1990 CPH-3 and 1990 CPH-4 (see figure 2, page

F–8), present both 100-percent and sample data.

Printed Reports

Printed reports are the most convenient and readily

available source of data for most census users. The

Census Bureau releases the reports in several series (see

figure 2) that are grouped under three broad titles: 1990

Census of Population and Housing (1990 CPH), 1990

Census of Population (1990 CP), and 1990 Census of

Housing (1990 CH). There also are reports, not reflected in

figure 2, for the outlying areas of the Pacific. The reports

are sold by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office. (See the ‘‘Sources of Assistance’’

section for the address and phone number.)

In several series, there are separate reports for each

State. The geographic coverage of the State reports is

listed in figure 2. The United States summaries for these

report series contain, for the most part, data for the United

States, regions, divisions, States, metropolitan areas (MA’s),

urbanized areas (UA’s), counties, American Indian and

Alaska Native areas, places with 10,000 or more persons,

and other large substate areas (for example, county subdivisions, such as towns and townships, with 10,000 or

more persons in selected States).

Report series that present data for small areas, such as

census tracts, contain limited subject-matter detail (for

example, counts of people by age ranges—under 5 years,

5 to 9 years, etc.—rather than by single years). Report

series that include greater amounts of subject-matter detail

include less geographic detail.

Computer Tape Files

The Census Bureau provides more data on tape and

other machine-readable products than in printed reports.

These products are sold by the Census Bureau’s Customer Services. There are several general types of data

files released on computer tape (available on both reels

and cartridges). They are introduced below, and more

information is presented in figures 3 and 4, pages F–11

through F–13.

Public Law 94-171 Data—This data file presents the

counts designed and formatted for use in legislative redistricting. These counts also are available on CD-ROM

and paper listings. Excerpts are available on

CENDATATM. The counts, for areas as small as blocks,

census tracts, and voting districts, include totals for population, race groups, persons of Hispanic origin, population

18 years and over, and housing units. (See figure 4.)

DATA PRODUCTS AND USER ASSISTANCE F–1
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 2 SESS: 122 OUTPUT: Mon Aug 16 13:19:18 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ all/ usst/ appf

Summary Tape Files (STF’s)— These computer tape files

provide statistics with greater subject-matter detail than

printed reports. They also present statistics for some types

of areas, such as block groups and blocks, that are not

included in the reports. (See figure 3.)

Here are some important features of STF’s:

• Each STF presents a particular set of data tables for

specific types of geographic areas.

• Each STF has three or more file types (indicated by a

letter suffix attached to the STF number) that differ in the

geographic levels reported, but contain the same data

detail.

• STF’s 1 and 2 contain 100-percent data, and STF’s 3

and 4 offer sample data.

• STF’s 1 and 3 report on smaller areas and offer less

data detail than STF’s 2 and 4.

• STF’s 1 through 4 offer greater data detail than the 1980

STF’s 1 through 4.

Subject Summary Tape Files (SSTF’s)—These files are

the source of the subject reports and provide greater

subject-matter detail than the STF’s. They present data for

the United States, regions, and divisions, and, in some

cases, also for States, counties, and large cities. (See

figure 4.)

Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) Files—These

computer tape files (see figure 4) contain data from

samples of long-form housing-unit records (‘‘microdata’’) for large geographic areas. Each sample housing-unit

record includes essentially all the 1990 census data collected about each person in a sample household and the

characteristics of the housing unit. Information that could

be used to identify an individual or a housing unit is not

included in the file.

Microdata files enable users to prepare customized

tabulations and cross-tabulations of most items on the

census questionnaire. There are two standard PUMS files:

• A file presenting a 5-percent sample of housing units in

which each household record includes codes to let the

user know in what area, such as a group of counties, a

single county, or a place, the household is located. Each

area identified must have a population of at least 100,000

and boundaries that do not cross State lines.

• A file presenting a 1-percent sample of housing units. Its

household records include codes associating them with

MA’s and other large areas, the boundaries of which

may cross State lines. (For the 1980 census, there were

two files with 1-percent samples. The 1-percent sample

showing data for selected urbanized areas and other

large areas will not be produced for the 1990 census.)

There also is a special 3-percent ‘‘elderly’’ file with the

same geography as the 5-percent sample. Included are

households with at least one person age 60 or more and all

members of those households.

Other Special Computer Tape Files—Other files include

the Census/ Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) File

and the County-to-County Migration File. (See figure 4.)

The Census Bureau may prepare additional special files.

Microfiche

All printed reports are offered on microfiche from Customer Services soon after they are published. Plans to

prepare microfiche versions of selected other products

were canceled, so that more products could be produced

on CD-ROM.

Compact Disc—Read-Only Memory (CD-ROM)

For the 1990 census, the Public Law (P.L.) 94-171 file;

an extract of STF 1B that presents selected statistics for

blocks; and STF’s 1A, 1C, 3A, 3B, and 3C are also

available on CD-ROM. The Census Bureau also offers on

CD-ROM: PUMS Files, SSTF’s, Census EEO File, and

County-to-County Migration File. (One 4 3/ 4-inch CD-ROM,

a type of optical or laser disc, can hold the contents of

approximately 1,600 flexible diskettes, or three or four

high-density computer tapes.)

Online Information Systems

The Census Bureau began CENDATATM, its online

information service, in 1984. CENDATATM is accessible

through two information vendors, CompuServe and

DIALOG. A number of Census Bureau reports, in whole

or in part, are offered online. For the 1990 census,

CENDATATM provides up-to-date information about the

availability of data products and carries selections of State,

county, MA, and place data from the P.L. 94-171 tape file

and STF’s 1 and 3. CENDATATM also offers the entire

Census EEO File.

Custom Data Products

These products are for users who require unique tabulations that are not included in standard products; for

example, information for locally defined geographic areas.

Users also can order special microdata files.

The cost of preparing custom products must be paid by

the users who request them. Any data that the Census

Bureau provides in these products are subject to the same

standards applied to other data to ensure that confidential

individual information is not revealed.

User-Defined Areas Program (UDAP) Tabulations—

UDAP can provide a set of predefined data tables for

locally defined areas that do not correspond to standard

1990 census geographic areas. Users identify the geographic areas of interest to them by delineating boundaries

around groupings of census blocks on 1990 census County

Block Maps or by electronically submitting the geographic

components of their area of interest. (A contact for more

information is given in the ‘‘Sources of Assistance’’ section.)

Special Tabulations—The Census Bureau can prepare

special data tabulations for any specific geographic or

subject-matter area. Users should rely on standard reports,

tapes, microfiche, or user-defined area tabulations whenever possible, since special tabulations tend to be substantially more expensive and take time to arrange and produce. (Contacts for more information are given in the

‘‘Sources of Assistance’’ section.)

GEOGRAPHIC PRODUCTS

Maps

Census Bureau maps are necessary for virtually all uses

of small-area 1990 census data. They are needed to locate

the specific geographic areas for which the census provides data and to study the spatial relationship of the data

for analytic purposes. The Census Bureau prepares a

variety of 1990 census maps. Among the most useful are

these series:

County Block Maps—These maps show census blocks

and their numbers; boundaries for statistical and governmental entities, such as census tracts and places; and

physical features. The P.L. 94-171 version of these maps

also shows voting district boundaries in those States that

furnished them. The maps are prepared on electrostatic

plotters by county (or equivalent entity) with one or more

map sheets each, depending on the size and shape of the

area and the density of the block pattern. An average

county requires 20 map sheets. The maps may be purchased from Customer Services.

County Subdivision Outline Maps—Maps in this Statebased series present the boundaries of the counties,

county subdivisions, places, American Indian and Alaska

Native areas (including off-reservation trust lands), tribal

designated statistical areas, and tribal jurisdiction statistical areas. Electrostatic-plotter copies are available for

purchase from Customer Services. Also, they appear on

multiple page-size sheets in the State reports of these

series: 1990 CPH-1, 1990 CPH-2, 1990 CPH-5, 1990 CP-1,

1990 CP-2, 1990 CH-1, and 1990 CH-2.

Census Tract/ Block Numbering Area (BNA) Outline

Maps—Maps in this county-based series depict census

tract or BNA boundaries and numbers, and the features

underlying the boundaries. They also show governmental

units in relation to the census tracts/ BNA’s. The Superintendent of Documents sells printed copies.

Urbanized Area Outline/ Boundary Maps—Maps in this

urbanized area-based series depict the boundaries of the

urbanized area and the features underlying the boundaries. They also show the boundaries for American Indian

and Alaska Native areas (AIANA’s), States, counties,

county subdivisions (MCD’s/ CCD’s), places (incorporated

and census designated), the map series subject area, and

selected base features and their names at a small scale.

Electrostatic-plotter copies are available for purchase from

Customer Services. Also, they appear on multiple pagesize sheets in the State reports of the 1990 CPH-2 series

and the Supplementary Report, Population and Land Area

of Urbanized Areas for the United States and Puerto Rico:

1990.

Voting District Outline Maps—Maps in this county-based

series depict voting district boundaries (for those counties

for which States furnished boundary information) and the

features underlying the boundaries. They also show governmental unit boundaries in relation to the voting districts.

They are prepared on electrostatic plotters and sold by

Customer Services.

Geographic Publications

The Geographic Identification Code Scheme report in

the 1990 CPH-R series will not be printed. Persons interested in this report are encouraged to use the TIGER/ GICSTM

tape file (which also will be available on CD-ROM) described

below. Listings similar to the tables that would have been

included in the report may be offered. Contact Customer

Serivces, Data User Services Division, Bureau of the

Census, Washington, DC 20233, telephone 301-763-4100.

The Congressional District Atlas, 103rd Congress of the

United States is a two-volume, 1,200-page atlas depicting

the boundaries and number of the districts for the 103rd

Congress as defined following the 1990 decennial census.

This is the first Congress defined following the 1990

decennial census and, therefore, illustrates the most significant changes of the decade, including the reapportionment of the U.S. House of Representatives. Congressional

district boundaries following governmental unit boundaries

such as an incorporated place of a minor civil division, are

illustrated using symbology identified in the map legend.

Wherever possible, features used as congressional district

boundaries are identified by their feature name or their

feature type. The Census Bureau may produce subsequent

atlases if court ordered or State mandated redistricting

creates new congressional district boundaries. The Atlas is

sold by the Superintendent of Documents (stock no.

003-024-08683-2; $42).

Machine-Readable Geographic Files

All 1990 census summary tape files include 1990 census geographic area codes, FIPS codes, certain area

names, land and inland water area in square kilometers,

geographic coordinates for an internal point for each

entity, and other geographic information.

The Census Bureau developed an automated geographic data base, known as the TIGER (Topologically

Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing) System, to produce the geographic products for the 1990

DATA PRODUCTS AND USER ASSISTANCE F–3
 JOBNAME: No Job Name PAGE: 4 SESS: 123 OUTPUT: Mon Aug 16 13:19:18 1993 / pssw01/ disk2/ 90dec/ all/ usst/ appf

census. TIGER provides coordinate-based digital map

information for the entire United States, Puerto Rico, the

U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Pacific territories over which

the United States has jurisdiction.

The TIGER System has significantly improved the utility

of 1990 census maps and geographic reference products.

Extract files generated from the TIGER System permit

users, with appropriate software, to perform such tasks as

linking the statistical data in the P.L. 94-171 file or the

STF’s and displaying selected characteristics on maps or a

video display screen at different scales and with whatever

boundaries they select for any geographic area of the

country. For example, a map for a particular county could

show the distribution of the voting age population by city

block.

The first extract of selected geographic and cartographic information intended for computer applications,

such as plotting maps and building geographic information

systems, is called the TIGER/ LineTM files. TIGER/ LineTM

files (released on tape and CD-ROM) contain attributes for

the segments of each boundary and feature (for example,

roads, railroads, and rivers), including 1990 census geographic codes for adjacent areas, latitude/ longitude coordinates of segment end points and the curvature of

segments, the name and type of the feature, and the

relevant census feature class code identifying the feature

segment by category. TIGER/ LineTM files also furnish

address ranges and associated ZIP Codes for each side of

street segments that have city-style (house number/ street

name) addresses; provide the names of landmarks, such

as lakes and golf courses; and include other information.

The 1992 version also includes school district codes, 1990

census urbanized area codes, codes for districts of the

103rd Congress, and address range coverage expanded

to include all areas that have city-style addresses.

TIGER/ GICSTM file is another extract. This file contains

a total of 12 files, organized on a national or State-by-State

basis, for a variety of geographic entities, such as metropolitan areas and their components as of the 1990 census,

1990 census urbanized areas and their components, American Indian and Alaska Native areas and their related

states and counties, as well as more familiar entities

including counties with their county subdivisions and places). This file contains high-level geographic names, codes,

and relationship information. It can be used to link geographic entity names to the codes in the TIGER/ LineTM,

TIGER/ SDTSTM and other TIGER extract files. It also

contains 1990 census population and housing counts,

population density (CD-ROM version only, but can be

calculated using the tape version), and area measurement

information (including land area, total water area and

separate measurements for each of the four components

of water—Inland, Great Lakes, Coastal, and Territorial), as

well as the latitude and longitude for an internal point within

each geography entity. The TIGER/ GICSTM also includes

corrections to names for selected entities and corrections

to the FIPS 55 codes for county subdivisions and places.

The first 300 characters of each record in this file are the

same as those in the Data Dictionary for the Summary

Depository Libraries—There are 1,400 libraries that receive

(from the Government Printing Office) Federal publications

that they think their patrons will need. Often some of these

publications are Census Bureau reports. The Census Bureau

provides free reports to an additional 120 census depository libraries. Also, many libraries purchase census reports

and maps for their areas. The Census Catalog and Guide

includes a list of all depository libraries.

OTHER CENSUS BUREAU RESOURCES

The Census Bureau has more to offer than just the

results of the census of population and housing. Through

other censuses, surveys, and estimates programs, it compiles and issues (in reports, computer tape, and other

media) data on subjects as diverse as appliance sales,

neighborhood conditions, and exports to other countries.

Here are examples of the information published about—

• People: Age, race, sex, income, poverty, child care,

child support, fertility, noncash benefits, education, commuting habits, pension coverage, unemployment, ancestry.

• Business and industry: Number of employees, total payroll, sales and receipts, products manufactured or sold.

• Housing and construction: Value of new construction,

numbers of owners and renters, property value or rent

paid, housing starts, fuels used, mortgage costs.

• Farms: Number, acreage, livestock, crop sales.

• Governments: Revenues and expenditures, taxes, employment, pension funds.

• Foreign trade: Exports and imports, origin and destination, units shipped.

• Other nations: Population, birth rates, death rates, literacy, fertility.

The other censuses, such as agriculture, retail trade,

manufactures, and governments, are collected for years

ending in ‘‘2’’ and ‘‘7.’’ Surveys and estimates programs

generate results as often as every month.

Many of the monthly ‘‘economic indicators’’ that measure how the Nation is doing come directly or indirectly

from the Census Bureau. Examples: employment and

unemployment; housing starts; wholesale and retail trade;

manufacturers’ shipments, inventories, and orders; export

and import trade; and sales of single-family homes.

The other statistical activities of the Census Bureau are

described below. Data users will find more information

about them and descriptions of their data products in the

annual Census Catalog and Guide. Also, special guides

and brochures are prepared for most of them. Contact the

Census Bureau’s Customer Services for more information.

Current Demographic and Housing Programs

Two types of current programs complement the 10-year

census: population estimates and surveys. The total population of the United States is estimated monthly; the

population of States, counties, and metropolitan areas is

estimated annually; and the population of places and other

governmental units is estimated every 2 years. Projections

of future population are made at the national and State

levels.

The Census Bureau’s many household surveys update

population and housing characteristics at the national level

and sometimes for States and metropolitan areas, as well.

These surveys also obtain many characteristics not included

in the 10-year census. The Current Population Survey is

taken monthly; the American Housing Survey national

sample is taken biennially; the American Housing Survey

metropolitan sample is taken in 44 areas, 11 per year in a

4-year cycle; most other surveys are annual or less frequent.

Economic Censuses and Surveys

The economic censuses provide statistics about business establishments once every 5 years, covering years

ending in ‘‘2’’ and ‘‘7.’’ The 1987 Economic Censuses

include the censuses of retail trade, wholesale trade,

service industries, transportation, manufactures, mineral

industries, and construction industries. Also included are

related programs, such as statistics on minority- and

women-owned businesses, enterprise statistics, and censuses of economic activity in Puerto Rico and some of the

outlying areas under U.S. jurisdiction.

Several key statistics are tabulated for all industries

covered in the censuses. They are number of establishments, number of employees, payroll, and measure of

output (sales or receipts, and value of shipments or of work

done). Other items vary from sector to sector.

The Census Bureau also has programs that provide

current statistics on such measures as total sales of

particular kinds of businesses or production of particular

products. These programs include monthly, quarterly, and

annual surveys, the results of which appear in publication

series such as Current Business Reports and Current

Industrial Reports. The County Business Patterns program

offers annual statistics based on data compiled primarily

from administrative records.

Agriculture Census and Surveys

The agriculture census is conducted concurrently with

the economic censuses. It is the only source of uniform

agriculture data at the county level. It provides data on

such subjects as the number and size of farms; land use

and ownership; livestock, poultry, and crops; and value of

products sold.

Results of three surveys—the 1988 Farm and Ranch

Irrigation Survey, 1988 Census of Horticulture Specialties,

and 1988 Agricultural Economics and Land Ownership

Survey—are published in conjunction with the 1987 Census of Agriculture. Also, the Census Bureau regularly

issues reports from a survey on cotton ginnings.

Governments Census and Surveys

The census of governments, also for years ending in

‘‘2’’ and ‘‘7,’’ covers all types of governments: Federal,

State, county, municipal (place), township (county subdivision), school district, and special district. It provides data

on such subjects as number of public employees, payrolls,

revenue, and expenditures.

Annual and quarterly surveys cover the same principal

subjects but generate data only for States and the largest

local governments.

Foreign Trade Statistics

Monthly U.S. merchandise trade data compiled by the

Census Bureau summarize export and import transactions

and are based on the official documents filed by shippers

and receivers. These figures reflect the flow of merchandise but not intangibles like services and financial commitments. The trade figures trace commodity movements out

of and into the U.S. Customs jurisdiction, which includes

Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands as well as the 50

States and the District of Columbia. Data are published

separately on trade between the United States and Puerto

Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and other U.S. territories.

Other Statistical Activities

The Census Bureau also offers international data. It

maintains an international data base which is available to

the public on computer tape and is used to produce the

biennial World Population Profile report. It prepares studies

dealing with the demographic and economic characteristics of other countries and world regions.

Statistical compendia are another important data product. These publications (sometimes also offered in machinereadable form) draw data from many sources and reorganize them for convenient use. The most widely used

compendia are the annual Statistical Abstract of the United

States, the County and City Data Book (published every 5

years), and the State and Metropolitan Area Data Book

(published approximately every 4 years).
