NOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. Gulf

War-era II veterans served on active duty anywhere in the world sometime since September 2001. Nonveterans never served on active duty in the U.S.

Armed Forces. Updated population controls are introduced annually with the release of January data. Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet

publication criteria (values not shown where base is less than 35,000).
