1 Race/Ethnicity, Ancestry, and Place of Birth Data and Commonly Used Key Statistics Nebraska State Data Center 23rd Annual Data Users Conference August 15, 2012 Ethel Williams, Ph.D. UNO School of Public Administration Jerry Deichert UNO Center for Public Affairs Research

2 RACE The 2010 questionnaire lists Census and American Community Survey racial categories, as well as places to write in specific races not listed on the form. The 2010 Census continues the option first introduced in the 2000 Census for respondents to choose more than one race. Only 2.2 percent of Nebraskans identified with more than one race in the 2010 Census, but the percentage was much higher for children and young adults.

3 HISPANIC ORIGIN Since the 1970 Census, the questionnaire has asked U.S. residents whether they are of Hispanic origin, and if so, which broad Hispanic group 2010 Census and American Community Survey they identify with. Hispanic origin is considered separately from race in the Census and Hispanics may identify with any race.

4 Place of Birth and Ancestry Place of birth and ancestry were not asked on the 2010 Census. They were asked on the 2000 Census long form (sample). Current data are available only from the American Community Survey. Detailed information can be found on the Selected Population Tables.

5 Data Sources 2010 Census Official population counts Race and Hispanic/Latino Origin Basic demographic characteristics Age, gender, household type, owner/renter Does not cover detailed social, economic, or housing information American Community Survey Selected Population Tables Race, Hispanic/Latino Origin, ancestry, and country of birth Detailed social, economic, demographic, and housing data Is not the official population count

6 Selected Population Tables The American Community Survey Selected Population Tables (SPT) provide detailed social, economic, demographic and housing data for up to 392 race, tribal, Hispanic, and ancestry groups. Availability of ACS SPT tables for a population group is limited to geographic areas with at least 50 unweighted sample cases of the chosen population group. This means that tables will not be shown for population groups with less than 50 unweighted sample cases in a specified geographic area. 50 unweighted cases represent about 2,000 weighted cases.
