| Note: The CPS is designed to collect reliable data at the national level. Due to | ||||
| sampling variability, state estimates based on the CPS are less reliable. | ||||
| To reduce the chances of misinterpreting changes in state estimates, | ||||
| the Census Bureau recommends using 2-year averages for evaluating | ||||
| changes in state estimates over time. | ||||
