       1 Beginning in 2003, persons who selected this race group only; persons who selected more than one race group are not
     included.  Prior to 2003, persons who reported more than one race group were included in the group they identified as the main
     race.  For more information, see the "Explanatory Notes and Estimates of Error" section of this publication.
       NOTE:  Estimates for the above race groups (white, black or African American, and Asian) do not sum to totals because data
     are not presented for all races.  In addition, persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race
     and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well as by race.  Beginning in January 2003, data reflect revised population
     controls used in the household survey.
