1/ Not strictly comparable with prior years. For an
explanation, see "Historical Comparability" under the
Household Data section of the Explanatory Notes and Estimates
of Error.
2/ The population figures are not adjusted for seasonal
variation.
3/ Beginning in January 1997, data are not strictly
comparable with data for 1996 and earlier years because of
revisions in the population controls used in the household
survey. For additional information, see "Revisions in the
Current Population Survey Effective January 1997" in the
February 1997 issue of this publication.
