NOTE TO ALL DATA USERS
To maintain confidentiality, the Census Bureau applies statistical procedures that introduce some uncertainty
into data for small geographic areas. Data have not been adjusted for estimated net census coverage error
based on the results of the Accuracy and Coverage Evaluation (A.C.E.). Census results contain nonsampling
error. Researchers who create their own estimates using data provided by American FactFinder should cite
the Census Bureau as the source of the original data only.
SUBJECT DEFINITIONS
Age - The age classification is based on the age of the person in complete years as of April 1, 2000. The age
of the person usually was derived from their date of birth information.
Average Family Size - A measure obtained by dividing the number of people in families by the total
number of families (or family householders).
Average Household Size - A measure obtained by dividing the number of people in households by the
total number of households (or householders).
Average Household Size of Owner-Occupied Units - A measure obtained by dividing the number of
people living in owner-occupied housing units by the number of owner-occupied housing units,
Average Household Size of Renter-Occupied Units - A measure obtained by dividing the number of
people living in renter-occupied housing units by the number of renter-occupied housing units.
Child - A child includes a son or daughter by birth, a stepchild, or an adopted child of the householder,
regardless of the child's age or marital status.
Family Household (Family) - A family includes a householder and one or more people living in the same
household who are related to the householder by birth, marriage, or adoption. All people in a household who
are related to the householder are regarded as members of his or her family. A family household may
contain people not related to the householder, but those people are not included as part of the householder's
family in census tabulations. Thus, the number of family households is equal to the number of families, but
family households may include more members than do families. A household can contain only one family for
purposes of census tabulations. Not all households contain families since a household may comprise a group
of unrelated people or one person living alone,
Female Householder, No Husband Present - A female maintaining a household with no husband of the
householder present.
Group Quarters Population - The group quarters population includes all people not living in households.
Two general categories of people in group quarters are recognized: 1) the institutionalized population which
includes people under formally authorized, supervised care or custody in institutions at the time of
enumeration (such as correctional institutions, nursing homes, and juvenile institutions) and 2) the
noninstitutionalized populatIOn which includes all people who live in group quarters other than institutions
(such as college dormitories, military quarters, and group homes).
Hispanic or Latino - People who identify with the terms "Hispanic" or "Latino" are those who classify
themselves in one of the speCific Hispanic or Latino categories listed on the questionnaire-"Mexican," "Puerto
Rican," or "Cuban"-as well as those who indicate that they are "other Spanish. Hispanic, or Latino." Origin
can be viewed as the heritage. nationality group, lineage, or country of birth of the person or the person's
parents or ancestors before their arrival in the United States. People who identify their origin as Spanish.
Hispanic, or Latino may be of any race.
Homeowner Vacancy Rate - The homeowner vacancy rate is the proportion of the homeowner housing
inventory which is vacant for sale. It is computed by dividing the number of vacant units for sale only by the
sum of owner.occupied units and vacant units that are for sale only, and then multiplying by 100. (For more
information, see "Vacant Housing Unit.")

approval.- In addition to the five race groups, the OMS also states that respondents should be offered the
option of selecting one or more races.
If an individual could not provide a race response, the race or races of the householder or other household
members were assigned by the computer using specific rules of precedence of household relationship. For
example, if race was missing for a natural-born child in the household, then either the race or races of the
householder, another natural-born child, or the spouse of the householder were assigned. If race was not
reported for anyone in the household, the race or races of a householder in a previously processed
household were assigned.
White - A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe. the Middle East, or North
Africa. It includes people who indicate their race as "Whi te" or report entries such as Irish, German,
Italian, Lebanese, Near Easterner. Arab. or Polish.

includes people who indicate their race as "Slack, African Am., or Negro," or provide written entries
such as African American, Afro American, Kenyan, Nigerian, or Haitian.

name of an Indian tribe, or report such entries as Canadian Indian, French-American Indian, or
Spanish-American Indian.

entries such as Arctic Slope, Inupiat, Yupik, Alutiiq. Egegik, and Pribilovian. The Alaska tribes
are the Alaskan Athabaskan, Tlingit, and Haida. The information for Census 2000 is derived
from the American Indian Detailed Tribal Classification List for the 1990 census and was
expanded to list the individual Alaska Native Villages when provided as a written response for
race.
Asian - A person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, or the
Indian subcontinent including, for example, Cambodia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan,
the Philippine Islands, Thailand, and Vietnam. It includes "Asian Indian," "Chinese," "Filipino,"

themselves as Bengalese, Sharat, Dravidian, East Indian, or Goanese.

Q _.~_. _._'. ,........,_ ......,. v. v___~.~,,_, ___
housing units include vacant units used or intended for use only in certain seasons, for weekends, or other
occasional use throughout the year. Interval ownership units, sometimes called shared ownership or time-
sharing condominiums are included in this category. (For more information, see "Vacant Housing Unit.")
Sex - Based on self-reporting of gender. Either male or female.
Spouse - A person who is married to and living with the householder. This category includes people in
formal marriages, as well as people in common-law marriages.
Tenure - All occupied housing units are classified as either owner occupied or renter occupied. A housing
unit is owner occupied if the owner or co~owner lives in the unit even if it is mortgaged or not fully paid for.
All occupied housing units which are not owner occupied, whether they are rented for cash rent or occupied
without payment of cash rent, are classified as renter occupied.
Vacant Housing Unit - A housing unit is vacant if no one is living in it at the time of enumeration, unless
its occupants are only temporarily absent. Units temporarily occupied at the time of enumeration entirely by
people who have a usual residence elsewhere are also classified as vacant. (For more information, see
"Housing Unit.")
DERIVED MEASURES
Average - See "Mean."
Interpolation - Interpolation frequently is used in calculating medians based on interval data and in
approximating standard errors from tables. Linear interpolation is used to estimate values of a function
between two known values. This is the form of interpolation used to calculate median age.
Mean - This measure represents an arithmetic average of a set of values. It is derived by dividing the sum
(or aggregate) of a group of numerical items by the total number of items in that group. For example, average
family size is obtained by dividing the number of people in families by the total number of families (or family
householders). (Additional information on means and aggregates is included in the separate explanations of
many of the population and housing subjects.)
Median - This measure represents the middle value (if n is odd) or the average of the two middle values (if
n is even) in an ordered list of n data values. The median divides the total frequency distribution into two
equal parts: one-half of the cases falling below the median and one-half above the median. (See also
"Interpolation.")
Percentage - This measure is calculated by taking the number of items in a group possessing a
characteristic of interest and dividing by the total number of items in that group, and then multiplying by
100.
Rate - This is a measure of occurrences in a given period of time divided by the possible number of
occurrences during that period. Rates are sometimes presented as percentages.
