NOTE: Detailed items may not sum to totals because of rounding. Estimates for the race groups shown in the table (White, Black or African American, and Asian) do not sum to totals because data are not presented for all races. In addition, people whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well as by race. Data incorporate updated 2010 census‐based population controls.
