"NOTE:  The 2003 American Community Survey universe is limited to the household population and excludes the population living in institutions, college dormitories, ",,,,,,,,,,,
              and other group quarters. Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability (see http://www.census.gov/acs/www/UseData/Accuracy/Accuracy1.htm).   ,,,,,,,
             The degree of uncertainty for an estimate is represented through the use of a confidence interval. The confidence interval computed here is a 90-percent confidence interval  ,,,,,,,
             and can be interpreted roughly as providing 90-percent certainty that the true number falls between the lower and upper bounds.,,,,,,,
