Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted roughly as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.
Notes:

*For more information on understanding race and Hispanic origin data, please see the Census 2000 Brief
entitled, Overview of Race and Hispanic Origin, issued March 2001. (pdf format)

*While the 2007 American Community Survey (ACS) data generally reflect the December 2006 Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) definitions of metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas; in certain
instances the names, codes, and boundaries of the principal cities shown in ACS tables may differ from
the OMB definitions due to differences in the effective dates of the geographic entities.  The 2007 Puerto
Rico Community Survey (PRCS) data generally reflect the December 2005 Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) definitions of metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas: in certain instances the names,
codes, and boundaries of the principal cities shown in PRCS tables may differ from the OMB definitions
due to differences in the effective dates of the geographic entities.

*Estimates of urban and rural population, housing units, and characteristics reflect boundaries of urban
areas defined based on Census 2000 data.  Boundaries for urban areas have not been updated since
Census 2000.  As a result, data for urban and rural areas from the ACS do not necessarily reflect
the results of ongoing urbanization.
Explanation of Symbols:

1. An '**' entry in the margin of error column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample
observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error.  A statistical test is
not appropriate.

 2. An '-' entry in the estimate column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample
observations were available to compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians cannot be calculated because
one or both of the median estimates falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution.

3. An '-' following a median estimate means the median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended
distribution.

4. An '+' following a median estimate means the median falls in the upper interval of an open-ended
distribution.

5. An '***' entry in the margin of error column indicates that the median falls in the lowest interval or upper
interval of an open-ended distribution. A statistical test is not appropriate.

6. An '*****' entry in the margin of error column indicates that the estimate is controlled. A statistical test
for sampling variability is not appropriate.

 7. An 'N' entry in the estimate and margin of error columns indicates that data for this geographic area
cannot be displayed because the number of sample cases is too small.
