* In 2024, the Census Bureau began collecting data in ways that allow for more accurate reporting of cultural ancestry for Black and White respondents. In this profile, the 2024 total population should be considered the Census Bureau’s most accurate estimate of the true size of the cultural community. However, because the 2020-2024 pooled 5-year estimates come from a larger and more robust sample, these data are used for all other estimates presented in this profile.
