44 | * Due to data limitations, groups only include respondents who identify with each origin alone and no other race or Asian origin. ** Groups include respondents who identify with each origin alone or in combination with other races, ethnicities or Asian origins. For a full list of the origin in combination groups available in the data, refer to the methodology. Note: In 2020, the U.S. Census Bureau revised the list of Asian origins to include Central Asians. This group made up about 2% of the Asian population overall in 2023. "Asian" includes people who self-identify as Asian, including single-race Asian, multiracial Asian and Asian and Hispanic people. Only Asian origin groups that are individually identified in the data and have sufficient sample size are shown. "Chinese" does not include those who identify as Taiwanese alone. All figures are rounded according to rules in the methodology. Proportions are based on unrounded numbers. "X" indicates the estimate is not shown because the data is not available. "Z" indicates the estimate is not shown because of insufficient sample size. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
