Data Discussion

Unless otherwise specified, any missing data is either because there are no individuals who identify with the race/ethnicity or the data is suppressed to protect privacy. The race/ethnicity groups included in the indicator are as written in the original data source. Aggregate and disaggregated data are provided from two data sources (see data source note). Since the data sources are different, aggregate and disaggregated data should not be compared to one another.

Disaggregated data is unavailable for this county.
