	1. Information applies to the home community of record reported by individual NPS and PS recruits. Socioeconomic classifications
	provided by Claritas, with matching done by zip code.
	2. Claritas groups home communities by population density, ranging from the most densely populated "Urban" centers of our
	largest cities to "Town/Rural", a category that includes towns, farm land and sparely populated areas.  The categories are
	listed in decreasing orders of density.
	Rows and columns may not add to totals due to rounding.
	Data provided for only those individuals reporting a U.S. home of record.
