1 Since
the 2000 Census, this category refers only to persons declaring one race and
includes Hispanic or Latino. The
1990 Census offered no
option to identify with more than one race.
2 Asian & Pacific Islander not Hispanic or Latino - The 1990 Census
did not break down this category between Asian and Pacific Islander. Instead,
a
total figure of 907,810 persons were reported to be Asian or Pacific Islander, not of
Hispanic Origin.
3
Two or More Races - This category, first offered since the 2000 Census, allowed the
option to identify with more than one race. It was not an
option in the 1990
Census.
Notes: "Population
of one race" refers to those who identified themselves to the Census as of
one race only. "Population of two of more races"
refers to those
who identified
themselves as of at least two races. "Total Population"
is the combination of both.
"Hispanic of Latino" is not
considered a "race" by the
Census. Rather, it is a cultural/ethnic classification that overlaps with race.
Persons who identify themselves as
"Hispanic or Latino" must also
identify themselves with a race or combination of races. In fact, a large number
of these persons identify
themselves with the racial
classification
"white."
We have added a column under "Population of one race" titled
"White (Not Hispanic or Latino)."
