1 Asian race category reporting includes Pacific Islander from 1993–2002.

2 Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander race first reported separately in 2003.

3 Indicates two or more races reported for a person. Category first reported in 2003. Does not include persons of Hispanic or Latino origin.

4 Persons of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity may be of any race or multiple race.

5 The higher count for unknown or missing race results for 1993 - 2001 reflect the impact of the transitional period of incorporating new race definitions for Asian, Native Hawaiian, and Multiple Race in 2003.

Note: Rates for 1993–1999 have been updated using Resident Population: Monthly Postcensal Resident Population, by single year of age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin (http://www.census.gov/popest/data/national/asrh/1990s/nat_monthly_resident.html) (accessed July 15, 2015). Denominators for computing 2000–2009 case rates were obtained from the National Population Estimates for the 2000s: Monthly Postcensal Resident Population, by single year of age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin (http://www.census.gov/popest/data/national/asrh/2009/2009-nat-res.html) (accessed July 15, 2015) Denominators for computing 2000–2014 case rates were obtained from the National Population Estimates for the 2010s: Monthly Postcensal Resident Population, by single year of age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin (http://www.census.gov/popest/data/national/asrh/2014/files/NC-EST2014-ALLDATA-R-File10.csv ) (accessed June 25, 2015).

Case counts for race categories (American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, Black or African American, Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, and White) do not include persons of Hispanic ethnicity or multiple race.

Data for all years updated through June 5, 2015.
