1/  Error ranges are calculated at the 90-percent confidence interval, which 
means that if repeated samples were drawn from the same population and an error 
range constructed around each sample estimate, in 9 out of 10 cases the true 
value based on a complete census of the population would be contained within 
these error ranges.
Note:  Data for demographic groups are not shown when they do not meet BLS 
publication standards of reliability for the particular area based on the sample 
in that area. Items may not add to totals or compute to displayed percentages 
because of rounding. Detail for race and Hispanic-origin groups will not add to 
totals because data for the "other races" group are not presented and Hispanics 
are included in both the white and black population groups. Levels incorporate 
2000 census-based population controls.
