Notes:               Beginning with the 2003 Current Population Survey, there are revisions
                     to the available race categories. Respondents are allowed to report
                     more than one race, making selections from a "flash-card" listing.
                     These six race categories are: White, Black or African American,
                     American Indian or Alaskan Native, Asian, Native Hawaiian or Other
                     Pacific Islander, and Other race. The last category includes any other
                     race except the five mentioned. Because of these changes, data on race
                     are not directly comparable to previous series. White Alone, Black
                     Alone, and Asian Alone refer to people who reported White, Black, or
                     Asian and did not report any other race category. Hispanic Origin
                     refers to persons answering the question asking if the person is
                     Spanish, Hispanic, or Latino. If their response is "yes", a follow-up
                     question determines a specific ethnic origin, asking the person to
                     select from a flash-card listing. These selections are Mexican,
                     Mexican-American, Chicano, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Cuban American, or
                     some other Spanish, Hispanic, or Latino group. Use caution when
                     interpreting changes in the racial composition of the U.S. over time.
