Dataset

The Statistical Abstract files are distributed by the US Census Department as Microsoft Excel files. These files have data mixed with notes and references, multiple tables per sheet, and, worst of all, the table headers are not easily matched to their rows and columns.

A few files had extraneous characters in the title. These were corrected to be consistent. A few files have a sheet of crufty gibberish in the first slot. The sheet order was shuffled but no data were changed.

The tables that were changed (this is table 67):

0166 0257 0362 0429 0445 0446 0459 0461 0462 0464 0465 0466 0467
0469 0479 0480 0481 0482 0483 0484 0485 0486 0487 0559 0628 0629
1144 1227 1231

This dataset consists of a table of 61 rows and 11 columns.

Except as noted, as of March (51,586 represents 51,586,000) and based on Current Population Survey. Excludes members of Armed Forces except those living off post or with their families on post. Beginning 2001 population controls based on Census 2000 and an expanded sample of households. Based on Current Population Survey, see text, this section, and Appendix III
