Methodological Notes:
The Current Population Survey defines a household as all the people who occupy a housing unit. A house, apartment, a single room, or a group of rooms is regarded as a housing unit when it is occupied or intended for occupancy as separate living quarters; that is, when the occupants do not live with any other persons in the structure and there is direct access from the outside or through a common hall.
Time series by race that include data from both before and after 2002 should be interpreted with care. More details on the changes in racial categories.
