Household and Family Tables

The American Community Survey household and family tables were reweighted using the person weight of the householder instead of the housing unit weight used in the previous release. Because of this change, the number of households will equal the number of householders, which was not previously the case. The following tables, as well as the tabular and narrative profiles, and the Median Household Income rank table were updated as of March 25, 2002; only the corrected versions of these tables are available.
