       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.  Industries and occupations reflect the introduction of the 2002 census industry and occupational classification
     systems derived from the 2002 North American Industry Classification System and the 2000 Standard Occupational Classification system into
     the Current Population Survey.  Beginning in January 2003, data reflect revised population controls used in the household survey.
