Census 2000 Modified Race Data [MR(31)-CO.txt], prepared by the U.S. Census Bureau, 2002.
Summary statistics.
The MR(31)-CO.txt Summary File provides data from Census 2000 for all persons in the United States and Puerto Rico, where the race data have been modified to meet the needs of selected data users. This modification reconciles the Census 2000 race categories with those race categories that appear in the data from administrative records, which are used to produce population estimates and projections.
Census 2000: MR(31)-CO.txt: Age (19), Sex (2), Race (31), Hispanic origin (2) by County (3,141)
Age: 0, 1-4, 5-9 ... 80-84, 85+ (five-year age groupings except for 0, 1-4 and 85+)
Sex: Male, Female
Race: See Figure 1 at the end of this chapter
Hispanic origin: Hispanic or Latino, not Hispanic or Latino

Data are provided for counties and municipios (county equivalent in Puerto Rico) with state totals. The Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) code is used to identify each state, county, and municipio. State records can be identified by blanks in the county or municipio code field.

Census 2000 Race Categories
Race Modifications
POPULATION ESTIMATES AND PROJECTIONS
This Modified Race Summary File contains modified race categories based on Census 2000 data tabulated by age, sex, and Hispanic origin for counties in the United States and Puerto Rico. The Census Bureau’s Population Estimates Program modified the Census 2000 race data for use in the production of post-2000 population estimates and projections. The modification reconciles the Census 2000 race categories with those race categories that appear, or will appear, in the data from administrative records, which are used to produce population estimates and projections. The modification in this summary file did not correct or adjust the Census 2000 procedures for tabulating or coding race data, nor was it corrected for undercoverage or duplication of persons in Census 2000.
Many state and local agencies comply with the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 1997 revised standards for the collection, tabulation, and presentation of federal data on race and ethnicity.2 The revised OMB standards identify a minimum of five racial categories: White; Black or African American; American Indian and Alaska Native; Asian; and Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander. Perhaps, the most significant change for Census 2000 was that respondents were given the option to mark one or more races on the questionnaire to indicate their racial identity. Census 2000 race data are shown for people who reported a race either alone or in combination with one or more other races.
To allow Census 2000 respondents who could not identify with any of the above five OMB race categories another option, the questionnaires, with OMB’s approval, included a sixth race category: "Some other race." Space was provided on the questionnaire to allow respondents to also write in their race if their response was "Some other race." Because of needs to have census data comparable with the reporting categories used by state and local agencies and for compiling other administrative data used in producing population estimates and projections, the Census Bureau developed a procedure to assign an OMB race to those who reported "Some other race." (For more information about race classifications in Census 2000, visit the Census Bureau’s Internet site: www.census.gov/population/www/socdemo/race/racefactcb.html.)
This summary file provides data from Census 2000 that have been modified to assign each of the persons in the "Some other race" category to an OMB race category. The modified race data include 31 race groups which are the single and multiple race combinations of the OMB race categories: White; Black or African American; American Indian and Alaska Native; Asian; and Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander. (For a list of the 31 race groups shown in this summary file, see Figure 1 in Chapter 1.)
In Census 2000, there were roughly 18.5 million people who identified "Some other race" as part of, or their only, race response. These people were primarily of Hispanic origin, 90.4 percent or 16.8 million people, and many wrote in their Hispanic origin or Hispanic origin type (such as Mexican or Puerto Rican) as their race. Since these people were not included in one of the five OMB race categories, it was necessary to modify their race. Responses of "Some other race alone" were modified by blanking the "Some other race" response and imputing an OMB race category, either alone or in combination with another race. Race responses were imputed from a "donor," who matched on Hispanic origin. Responses of both "Some other race" and an OMB race(s) were modified by blanking the "Some other race" response and using the OMB race response(s) that was provided. No modification was made for responses indicating only an OMB race alone or in combination with another race. (A more detailed explanation on the procedures used for race modifications is found in Chapter 3.)

The following describes the modifications used to reconcile the Census 2000 race categories with those race categories that appear in the data from administrative records, which are used to produce population estimates and projections.
CATEGORIZATION OF CENSUS 2000 RACE RESPONSES
Compared to Census 2000 data, the effect of the race modification shows an increase in the U.S. population that reported only "One race" and a decrease in the population that reported "Two or more races" (see Tables 1 and 2 at the end of this chapter).
