* Statistically different from zero at the 90-percent confidence level.
1The 3-year-average median is the sum of three inflation-adjusted single-year medians divided by 3.
2A 90-percent confidence interval is a measure of an estimate's variability.  The larger the confidence interval in relation to the size of the estimate, the less reliable the estimate.  For more information see "Standard errors and their use" at <www.census.gov/hhes/www/p60_243sa.pdf>.
