	1. Includes individuals who indicated non-Hispanic ethnicity or did not respond to the ethnicity question.
	2. Individuals who indicated "2 or 3 Races" or "4 or 5 Races" are included in "Unknown."
	3. The race groupings used in this table reflect all racial identities reported by respondents.  Thus, an individual who identifies him or herself as multiracial
	may  be counted more than once.  For example, someone who self-identifies as "Asian, Black or Africa-American" will be counted in both the
	"Black" and "Asian" categories above.
	Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
