NOTE: In dollars. Excludes group quarters. (B) - Base is less than 200,000 households. Individual outliers that highly influenced the mean value for asset categories were excluded. "Other Assets" includes
mortgages held for sale of real estate, amount due from sale of business or property, and other financial assets. Federal surveys now give respondents the option of reporting more than one race. There are two
basic ways of defining a race group. A group such as Black may be defined as those who reported Black and no other race (the race-alone or single-race concept) or as those who reported Black regardless of
whether they also reported another race (the race alone-or-in-combination concept). This table shows data using the first approach (race-alone). The use of the single race population does not imply that it is the
preferred method of presenting or analyzing data. The U.S. Census Bureau uses a variety of approaches. Because Hispanics may be any race, data in this table for Hispanics overlap slightly with data for the Black
population. Data for American Indians and Alaska Natives are not shown because of their small sample size. The race or Hispanic origin of the householder designates the race or Hispanic origin of the household.
The estimates in this table are based on responses from a sample of the population and may differ from the actual values because of sampling variability and other factors. As a result, apparent differences
between the estimates for two or more groups may not be statistically significant. For information on sampling and nonsampling error see: http://www.census.gov/sipp/source.html

Footnotes:
NOTE: Excludes group quarters. Federal surveys now give respondents the option of reporting more than one race. There are two basic ways of defining a race
group. A group such as Black may be defined as those who reported Black and no other race (the race-alone or single-race concept) or as those who reported Black
regardless of whether they also reported another race (the race alone-or-in-combination concept). This table shows data using the first approach (race-alone). The
use of the single race population does not imply that it is the preferred method of presenting or analyzing data. The U.S. Census Bureau uses a variety of
approaches. Because Hispanics may be any race, data in this table for Hispanics overlap slightly with data for the Black population. Data for American Indians and
Alaska Natives are not shown because of their small sample size. The race or Hispanic origin of the householder designates the race or Hispanic origin of the
household. The estimates in this table are based on responses from a sample of the population and may differ from the actual values because of sampling variability
and other factors. As a result, apparent differences between the estimates for two or more groups may not be statistically significant. For information on sampling
and nonsampling error see: http://www.census.gov/sipp/source.html

NOTE: In dollars. Excludes group quarters. (B) - Base is less than 200,000 households. Individual outliers that highly influenced the mean value for asset categories were excluded. "Other Assets" includes
mortgages held for sale of real estate, amount due from sale of business or property, and other financial assets. Federal surveys now give respondents the option of reporting more than one race. There are two
basic ways of defining a race group. A group such as Black may be defined as those who reported Black and no other race (the race-alone or single-race concept) or as those who reported Black regardless of
whether they also reported another race (the race alone-or-in-combination concept). This table shows data using the first approach (race-alone). The use of the single race population does not imply that it is the
preferred method of presenting or analyzing data. The U.S. Census Bureau uses a variety of approaches. Because Hispanics may be any race, data in this table for Hispanics overlap slightly with data for the Black
population. Data for American Indians and Alaska Natives are not shown because of their small sample size. The race or Hispanic origin of the householder designates the race or Hispanic origin of the
household. The estimates in this table are based on responses from a sample of the population and may differ from the actual values because of sampling variability and other factors. As a result, apparent
differences between the estimates for two or more groups may not be statistically significant. For information on sampling and nonsampling error see: http://www.census.gov/sipp/source.html

Updated: July 12, 2013. Estimates for Type of Household by Age of Householder were updated to maintain consistency with prior year tabulations.

NOTE: In dollars. Excludes group quarters. (B) - Base is less than 200,000 households. Standard errors have been calculated using replicate weights. Standard error of 0 indicates that the width of the confidence
interval for this estimate rounds to zero. Federal surveys now give respondents the option of reporting more than one race. There are two basic ways of defining a race group. A group such as Black may be
defined as those who reported Black and no other race (the race-alone or single-race concept) or as those who reported Black regardless of whether they also reported another race (the race alone-or-incombination concept). This table shows data using the first approach (race-alone). The use of the single race population does not imply that it is the preferred method of presenting or analyzing data. The U.S.
Census Bureau uses a variety of approaches. Because Hispanics may be any race, data in this table for Hispanics overlap slightly with data for the Black population. Data for American Indians and Alaska Natives
are not shown because of their small sample size. The race or Hispanic origin of the householder designates the race or Hispanic origin of the household. The estimates in this table are based on responses from a
sample of the population and may differ from the actual values because of sampling variability and other factors. As a result, apparent differences between the estimates for two or more groups may not be
statistically significant. For information on sampling and nonsampling error see: http://www.census.gov/sipp/source.html

Updated: May 13, 2013. Estimates for income quintiles were updated after correcting for an inconsistency in how the cut-off points for income quintiles were set.
Updated: July 12, 2013. Estimates for Type of Household by Age of Householder were updated to maintain consistency with prior year tabulations.

NOTE: In dollars. Excludes group quarters. (B) - Base is less than 200,000 households. Standard errors have been calculated using replicate weights. Federal surveys now give respondents the option of reporting
more than one race. There are two basic ways of defining a race group. A group such as Black may be defined as those who reported Black and no other race (the race-alone or single-race concept) or as those
who reported Black regardless of whether they also reported another race (the race alone-or-in-combination concept). This table shows data using the first approach (race-alone). The use of the single race
population does not imply that it is the preferred method of presenting or analyzing data. The U.S. Census Bureau uses a variety of approaches. Because Hispanics may be any race, data in this table for
Hispanics overlap slightly with data for the Black population. Data for American Indians and Alaska Natives are not shown because of their small sample size. The race or Hispanic origin of the householder
designates the race or Hispanic origin of the household. The estimates in this table are based on responses from a sample of the population and may differ from the actual values because of sampling variability
and other factors. As a result, apparent differences between the estimates for two or more groups may not be statistically significant. For information on sampling and nonsampling error see:
