In addition, the file contains 100-percent counts and unweighted sample counts for total persons and total housing units. The information is presented in 323 tables that are tabulated for every geographic unit represented in the data. There is one variable per table cell, plus additional variables with geographic information. Almost all of the tables are iterated by race and Hispanic origin: White, Black, American Indian, Eskimo or Aleut, Asian or Pacific Islander, Hispanic origin (of any race), and White, not of Hispanic origin. All of the tables are shown for six levels of observation: United States, regions, divisions, states, Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA)/Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Areas (CMSA), and Primary Metropolitan Statistical Areas. The data were supplied in eight data files, each with a portion of the cases. In addition, ICPSR produced a combined file with all of the cases. ... Cf.: http://dx.doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR02446.
