1In 1995 and 2001, the 1977 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Standards for Data on Race and
Ethnicity were used to classify persons into one of the following four racial groups: White, Black,
American Indian or Alaskan Native, or Asian or Pacific Islander. For data from 2005 and 2007, the
revised 1997 OMB standards were used. Persons could select one or more of five racial groups: White,
Black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, or Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific
Islander. Included in the total but not shown separately are American Indian or Alaska Native and
respondents with "Two or more races." For continuity purposes, in 2005 and 2007, respondents who
reported the child being Asian or Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander were combined. Data on race
and Hispanic origin are collected separately. Persons of Hispanic origin may be of any race.
