Notes:               The U.S. Census Bureau provides annual estimates of income and poverty
                     statistics for all school districts, counties, and states through the
                     Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates
                     (https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/saipe/about.html) (SAIPE)
                     program. The bureau's main objective with this program is to provide
                     estimates of income and poverty for the administration of federal
                     programs and the allocation of federal funds to local jurisdictions.
                     In addition to these federal programs, state and local programs use
                     the income and poverty estimates for distributing funds and managing
                     programs.
                     
                     Tax exemptions are one of the data sources used in producing SAIPE
                     program estimates. This series is the subset of total exemptions for
                     which the adjusted gross income falls below the official poverty
                     threshold for a family of the size implied by the number of exemptions
                     on the return.
