NOTES: All data�Trade levels
reflect the mode of transportation as a shipment enters or exits at a border
port. Flows through individual ports are based on reported data collected
from U.S. trade documents. Trade does not
include low-value shipments.� (In
general, these are imports valued at less than $1,250 and exports that are
valued at less than $2,500).
|
Air�Data for all air gateways include
a low level (generally less than 2%-3% of the total value) of small user-fee
airports located in the same region.
Air gateways not identified by airport name (e.g., Chicago, IL, and others) include major
airport(s) in that geographic area in addition to small regional airports. In
addition, due to Bureau of Census confidentiality regulations, data for
courier operations are included in the airport totals for JFK International Airport, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Cleveland, Chicago, Miami, and Anchorage.
|
Numbers
may not add to totals due to rounding.
