These population estimates incorporate revisions of estimates from previous years and the results of special censuses and test censuses conducted by the Census Bureau. 4/1/90 Census Population - The revised April 1, 1990 Census population of an area. Births - Total number of live births occurring to residents of an area during the period, as reported from the Census Bureau's Federal-State Cooperative Program for Population Estimates (FSCPE) and the National Center for Health Statistics. Census Regions and Divisions - The Census Bureau delineates two sets of sub-national areas that are formed of states. This two-tiered system of areas consists of 9 census divisions nested in 4 census regions. The Northeast region includes the New England division: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont; and the Middle Atlantic division: New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. The Midwest region includes the East North Central division: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin; and the West North Central division: Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. The South region includes the South Atlantic division: Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia; the East South Central division: Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Tennessee; and the West South Central division: Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas. The West region includes the Mountain division: Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming; and the Pacific division: Alaska, California, Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington. Deaths - Total number of deaths occurring within the resident population of an area during the period, as reported by the Census Bureau's Federal-State Cooperative Program for Population Estimates (FSCPE) and the National Center for Health Statistics. Demographic Components of Change - The demographic components of population change consist of births, deaths, net domestic migration, and net international migration. FIPS State Code - Two digit Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) codes uniquely identify each state and state equivalent. They are issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) of the U.S. Department of Commerce. Natural Increase - births minus deaths in an area. The rate of natural increase expresses natural increase during a time period as a percentage of an area's initial population. Net Domestic Migration - the difference between domestic in-migration to an area and domestic out-migration from it during the period. Domestic in-migration and out-migration consist of moves where both the origins and destinations are within the United States (excluding Puerto Rico). The net domestic migration rate expresses net domestic migration during a time period as a percentage of an area's initial population. Net Federal Movement - Net Federal movement is the difference between the movement of federal employees (both military and civilian) and their dependents into and out of the United States (excluding Puerto Rico) during the period. Net International Migration - the difference between migration to an area from outside the United States (immigration) and migration from the area to outside the United States (emigration) during the period. For the purposes of these population estimates, the geographic extent of the United States is defined as excluding Puerto Rico. Net international migration includes: (1) legal immigration to the United States as reported by the Immigration and Naturalization Service, (2) an estimate of net undocumented immigration from abroad, (3) an estimate of emigration from the United States, and (4) net movement between Puerto Rico and the (balance of) the United States. The net international migration rate expresses net international migration during a time period as a percentage of an area's initial population. Numeric Population Change - the difference between the population of an area at the beginning and end of a time period. Percent Change- the difference between the population of an area at the beginning and end of a time period, expressed as a percentage of the beginning population. Population (Estimate) - The estimated population is the computed number of persons living in the area (resident population) as of July 1. The estimated population is calculated from a demographic components of change model that incorporates information on natural change (births and deaths) and net migration (net domestic migration and net movement from abroad) that has occurred in the area since the reference date of the 1990 census. Additional information on the methodology used to produce these population estimates is contained in Current Population Reports P25-1127 and at our Internet site at: http://www.census.gov/population/www/methodep.html Resident Population - These population estimates are for the resident population. The resident population of a state includes all residents (both civilian and Armed Forces) living in the state. The geographic universe for the resident population is the 50 states and the District of Columbia. It excludes Puerto Rico and outlying areas under United States jurisdiction. The resident population excludes U.S. citizens residing abroad. Residual - The subnational estimates are constrained to sum to an independently derived estimate of the national population. The residual is the difference between an area's population as estimated by the subnational population estimation procedure before and after imposing this constraint. The residual is not a demographic component of population change; rather, it is a statistical artifact of the procedures employed to produce the estimates.
