	2. Includes individuals who indicated non-Hispanic ethnicity or did not respond to the ethnicity question.
	3. The race groupings used in this table reflect the number of individuals who indicate a single racial identity. Individuals who self-identify as multiracial are counted in the “two or more” category.
