Data for the charts, tables, and maps are the most recent from the U.S. Census, American Community Survey, 2009-2013, Five-Year Estimates. Five-year estimates are used rather than one-year or three-year estimates in order to reduce the margin of error. All slides about each of the localities include data about race
