States of Micronesia, Guam, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, Midway
Island, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico,
the Republic of Palau, U.S. Minor Outlying Islands, U.S. Miscellaneous
Pacific Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Note: Denominators for computing rates for years 1990-1999 were obtained
from Quarterly Estimates of the United States Foreign-born and Native
Resident Populations: April 1, 1990, to July 1, 1999 (www.census.gov/population/estimates/nation/nativity/fbtab001.txt).
Denominators for computing rates for 2000 and 2001 were based on an extrapolation
from estimates in U.S. Census Bureau Current Population Reports, P20-534,
The Foreign-born Population in the United States: March 2000.
