Preface

metropolitan areas, and central cities, which are the basis
for determining the eligibility of an area for benefits under
Federal economic assistance programs, result from the
Federal-State Cooperative Program, b l s is responsible for
establishing the estimating procedures; the State employment
security agencies are responsible for developing the esti­
mates. For all States, the District of Columbia, the Los An­
geles Metropolitan Statistical Area, and New York City, the
official annual average estimates are obtained directly from
the C P S. For the remaining metropolitan areas and cities, the
official annual average estimates are derived using a stan­
dardized procedure. Data from the CPS for metropolitan areas
and cities in this bulletin are not the official BL S estimates
and are provided because they are the only current source
of information on demographic and economic characteristics.
This bulletin was prepared by the Data Users’ and Publi­
cation Services Group and the Data Services Group in col­
laboration with the Division of Local Area Unemployment
Statistics.
Material in this publication is in the public domain and, with
appropriate credit, may be reproduced without permission.

Data on labor force, employment, and unemployment in
State and sub-State areas are available from two major
sources—the Current Population Survey (C P S ) and the
Federal-State Cooperative Program. This bulletin presents
data from the C PS for regions, States, and selected large
metropolitan areas and central cities. It provides 1986 an­
nual averages for the employed and the unemployed by
selected demographic and economic characteristics based on
population counts projected from the 1980 decennial census.
Comparable data for 1980-85 were published in Geographic
Profile o f Employment and Unemployment as follows: 1985,
Bulletin 2266; 1984, Bulletin 2234; 1983, Bulletin 2216;
1982, Bulletin 2170; and 1981 and 1980, Bulletin 2156.
Bulletin 2156 also provided instructions for adjusting 1970
census-based data for earlier years to reflect 1980 census
population counts.
Beginning with 1986 annual data, this bulletin introduces
revised definitions for metropolitan areas based on guide­
lines and standards established by the U.S. Office of Manage­
ment and Budget in 1983. (See appendix C.)

Geographic Profile
of Employment and
Unemployment, 1986

The Current Population Survey (C P S ) is the regular month­
ly survey o f about 59,500 households from which the na­
tional unemployment rate is derived. (See appendix A for
concepts and definitions used in the C P S, and appendix B for
a description o f the estimation procedure.)
Annual average estimates o f the labor force by demograph­
ic characteristics (age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin) and
the economic characteristics o f the employed and unemployed
are published in this bulletin only if they meet the b l s stan­
dards o f reliability for publication. (See appendix B for an
explanation o f the B L S standards for publication o f CPS data.)




Estimates for census regions and divisions are shown in sec­
tion I; States are shown in section II; and metropolitan areas
and cities are shown in section III.
Since these estimates are based on a survey rather than
on a com plete census o f the population, they are subject to
sampling error. Consequently, error ranges have been
provided, at a 90-percent confidence interval, for the unem­
ployment rates in the first table o f sections I, II, and III. In
addition, appendix B provides tables from which the sam­
pling error ranges can be obtained for the data in other ta­
bles in these sections.

M ountain Division

Pacific Division

1 Error ranges are calculated at the 90-percent confidence interval,
which means that if repeated samples were drawn from the same popula­
tion and an error range constructed around each sample estimate, in 9 out
of 10 cases the true value based on a complete census of the population
would be contained within these error ranges.
2 Because of separate processing and weighting procedures, totals for
the United States differ from the results obtained by aggregating the totals
for regions and States.
3 "Other marital status" includes divorced, widowed, separated, and mar­




ried with spouse absent.
NOTE: Data for demographic groups are not shown when they do not
meet BLS publication standards of reliability for the particular area based on
the sample in that area. See appendix B. Items may not add to totals or
compute to displayed percentages because of rounding. Detail for race and
Hispanic-origin groups will not add to totals because data for the “other
races” group are not presented and Hispanics are included in both the
white and black population groups.

NOTE: Items may not add to totals or compute to displayed percentages because
of rounding. Detail for race and Hispanic-origin groups will not add to totals because
data for the "other races” group are not presented and Hispanics are included in both
the white and black population groups.

1 Includes toys, amusement, and sporting goods.
2 Data are not shown when the labor force base does not meet BLS publication
standards of reliability for the particular area, based on the sample in that area. See
appendix B.
3 Less than 500 persons employed or less than 0.05 percent of total employed.

NOTE: Data for demographic groups are not shown when they do not meet BLS
publication standards of reliability for the particular area based on the sample in that
area. See appendix B. Items may not add to totals or compute to displayed percent­




ages because of rounding. Detail for race and Hispanic-origin groups will not add to

1 Error ranges are calculated at the 90-percent confidence interval, which means
that if repeated samples were drawn from the same population and an error range
constructed around each sample estimate, in 9 out of 10 cases the true value based
on a complete census of the population would be contained within these error ranges.
2 “Other marital status” includes divorced, widowed, separated, and married with
spouse absent.
3 Less than 500 persons or less than 0.05 percent.




NOTE: Data for demographic groups are not shown when they do not meet BLS
publication standards of reliability for the particular area based on the sample in that
area. See appendix B. Items may not add to totals or compute to displayed percent­
ages because of rounding. Detail for race and Hispanic-origin groups will not add to
totals because data for the “other races” group are not presented and Hispanics are
included in both the white and black population groups.

NOTE: Data for demographic groups are not shown when they do not meet BLS
publication standards of reliability for the particular area based on the sample in that
area. See appendix B. Items may not add to totals or compute to displayed percent­
ages because of rounding. Detail for race and Hispanic-origin groups will not add to
totals because data for the “other races” group are not presented and Hispanics are
included in both the white and black population groups.

1 Error ranges are calculated at the 90-percent confidence interval, which means
that if repeated samples were drawn from the same population and an error range
constructed around each sample estimate, in 9 out of 10 cases the true value
based on a complete census of the population would be contained within these er­
ror ranges.
2 "Other marital status” includes divorced, widowed, separated, and married with
spouse absent.




3 Less than 500 persons or less than 0.05 percent.
NOTE: Data for demographic groups are not shown when they do not meet BLS
publication standards of reliability for the particular area based on the sample in that
area. See appendix B. Items may not add to totals or compute to displayed per­
centages because of rounding. Detail for race and Hispanic-origin groups will not
add to totals because data for the “other races” group are not presented and Hispanics are included in both the white and black population groups.

work, and persons on layoff. (2) Job leavers are persons who
quit or otherwise terminated their employment voluntarily
and immediately began looking for work. (3) Reentrants are
persons who previously worked at a full-time job lasting 2
weeks or longer but were out of the labor force before look­
ing for work. (4) New entrants are persons who never worked
at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer.
The unemployment rate for all civilian workers represents
the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force.
The civilian laborforce participation rate is the ratio of the
civilian labor force to the civilian noninstitutional population.
The civilian employment-population ratio is the percentage
of all employed civilians in the civilian noninstitutional
population.
Hours of work statistics relate to the actual number of hours
worked during the survey week. For example, persons who
normally work 40 hours a week, but who were off on the
Columbus Day holiday, would be reported as working 32
hours even though they were paid for the holiday. For per­
sons working in more than one job, the figures relate to the
number of hours worked in all jobs during the survey week,
with all hours credited to the major job.
Persons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey week
are designated as working yh// time; correspondingly, per­
sons who worked between 1 and 34 hours are designated as
working part time. Part-time workers are classified by their
usual status at their present job (either full or part time) and
by their reason for working part time during the survey week
(economic or noneconomic). “ Economic reasons’’ include:
Slack work, material shortages, repairs to plant or equip­
ment, start or termination of job during the week, and in­
ability to find full-time work. Noneconomic reasons include:
Labor dispute, bad weather, own illness, vacation, demands
of home, school, no desire for full-time work, and full-time
worker only during the peak season. Persons on full-time
schedules include, in addition to those working 35 hours or
more, those who worked from 1 to 34 hours for noneconomic
reasons and usually work full time.
The distribution of employment by hours worked relates
to persons “ at work” during the survey week. At-work data
differ from data on total employment because the latter in­
clude persons in the zero-hours-worked category, “ with a

Tables showing labor force status include provisional es­
timates of the civilian noninstitutional population 16 years
and over as well as data on the civilian labor force, unem­
ployment rates, and labor force participation rates. Popula­
tion estimates are revised by the Bureau of the Census each
year, and the revised estimates are incorporated into the CPS
labor force levels. This adjustment affects the estimates of
labor force, employment, and unemployment but does not
affect percentages such as unemployment rates, participa­
tion rates, or employment-population ratios.
The civilian labor force comprises all civilians classified
as employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria
described below.
The employed are all civilians who did any work as paid
employees or in their own business during the survey week,
or who worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers in an
enterprise operated by a family member. Persons temporar­
ily absent from a job because of illness, bad weather, a strike,
or for personal reasons are also counted as employed whether
they were paid by their employer or were seeking other jobs.
The unemployed are all civilians who did not work during
the survey week, made specific efforts to find a job in the
prior 4 weeks, and were available for work during the sur­
vey week (except for temporary illness). Persons waiting to
be recalled to a job from which they had been laid off, or
waiting to report to a new job within 30 days, need not be
looking for work to be classified as unemployed.
Duration of unemployment represents the length of time
(through the current survey week) during which persons
classified as unemployed have been continuously looking for
work. For persons on layoff, duration of unemployment
represents the number of full weeks since the termination
of their most recent employment. A period of 2 weeks or
more during which a person was employed or ceased look­
ing for work is considered to break the continuity of the
present period of jobseeking. Duration of unemployment
measures the length of a spell of unemployment currently
in progress. Hence, it should not be confused with a com­
pleted spell of unemployment.
Reasons for unemployment are divided into four major
groups: (1) Job losers are persons whose employment end­
ed involuntarily and who immediately began looking for



128

job but not at work. ’’ Included in this latter group are per­
sons who were on vacation, ill, involved in a labor dispute,
or otherwise absent from their jobs for voluntary, noneco­
nomic reasons. These persons are classified according to
whether they usually work full or part time.
Occupational and industry data for the employed refer to
the job held during the survey week. Persons with two jobs
or more are classified according to the job in which they
worked the most hours during the survey week. The unem­
ployed are classified according to the last full-time civilian
job held for 2 weeks or more. Beginning with 1983 data,
all occupational and industry data presented in this bulletin
are coded according to the classification systems used in the
1980 census, rather than the 1970 census systems used
through 1982. While this conversion had little effect on
industry-related data, the new occupational categories are
so radically different that their implementation represents a
break in historical data series. Additional information on the
1980 census occupational and industrial classification sys­
tems appears in “ Revisions in the Current Population Sur­

Race and Hispanic origin. Beginning with 1981 annual
averages, Geographic Profile presents racial data for white
and black workers. Before 1981, racial data were published
for white and “ black and other” workers. The “ other”
category consists primarily of American Indians, Alaskan
Natives, and Asians and Pacific Islanders.
Hispanic origin refers to persons who identified themselves
in the enumeration process as Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban,
Central South American, or of other Hispanic origin or des­
cent. Persons of Hispanic origin may be of any race; thus,
they are included in both the white and black population
groups.
A more detailed description of the concepts and definitions
used in this survey appears in Concepts and Methods Used in
Labor Force Statistics Derived from the Current Population
Survey (BLS Report 463) and the Explanatory Notes of the BLS
monthly publication Employment and Earnings.

Appendix B.
Sampling and Estimation
Procedures and Sampling
Error Tables

The estimates presented in this bulletin are based on an­
nual averages of monthly data obtained from the CPS—a sam­
ple survey of the civilian noninstitutional population. The
survey is conducted each month by the Bureau of the Cen­
sus for bls , and provides comprehensive data on the labor
force, the employed, and the unemployed, including such
characteristics as age, sex, race, Hispanic origin, marital sta­
tus, occupation, and industry. The survey also provides data
on the characteristics of those not in the labor force. The
information is collected by trained interviewers from a scien­
tifically selected sample designed to represent the civilian
noninstitutional population. Each month, about 59,500 oc­
cupied housing units are eligible for interview. Respondents
are interviewed using a standardized questionnaire to obtain
information about the employment status of each household
member 16 years of age and over. The reference period is
the calendar week, Sunday through Saturday, which includes
the 12th of the month. This is known as the survey week.
Actual field interviewing is conducted during the week which
includes the 19th of the month.
Inmates of institutions, members of the Armed Forces, and
persons under 14 years of age are not covered in the regular
monthly enumerations; data on members of the Armed
Forces and persons under 16 are excluded from the popula­
tion and labor force statistics shown in this bulletin.

are the most populated PSU’s in each State. Other strata were
formed by combining PSU’s which were similar in such
characteristics as population growth, proportion of blacks
and Hispanics, occupation/industry, and age/sex distribution.
PSU’s selected from these strata are non-self-representing,
since each one chosen represents the entire stratum.
Within each of the selected PSU’s, the number of house­
holds to be enumerated each month is determined in two
steps. First, a sample of census enumeration districts (ED’s)
is selected using the population size probability selection
procedures. ED’s are administrative units and contain, on the
average, about 300 households. Second, clusters of approx­
imately four addresses (contiguous, wherever possible) are
selected to be enumerated within each designated ED.
Part of the sample is changed, or rotated, each month. A
primary reason for rotating the sample is to minimize the lack
of cooperation which may result from interviewing a constant
panel indefinitely. Another reason for replacing households is
to reduce the cumulative effect of response biases which are
sometimes observed when the same persons are interviewed
indefinitely. The rotation plan provides for three-fourths of the
sample to be identical from one month to the next and onehalf to be identical with the same month a year earlier.

Sampling procedures

Under the estimating methods used, all of the results for
a given month become available simultaneously and are based
on returns from the entire panel of respondents. The esti­
mation procedure involves the weighting up, or inflating,
of the data from each sample person to develop estimates
for the entire population from which the sample was drawn.
The basic weights, which are the inverse of the sampling
ratios (defined as the number of sample households divided
by total households in the State), are adjusted to better reflect
the entire population, as described below.

Estimating methods

The 1986 sample encompasses 729 sample areas compris­
ing over 1,000 counties and cities, with coverage in every
State and the District of Columbia. It is based to a large ex­
tent on information about the distribution of the population
as reported in the 1980 decennial census. These areas were
selected by dividing the entire area of the United States into
1,973 primary sampling units (PSU’s). With some minor ex­
ceptions, a psu consists of a county or number of contiguous
counties. Most metropolitan areas constitute separate PSU’s.
To improve the efficiency of the sample, the 1,973 PSU’s
were grouped into strata within each State. Then, one PSU
was selected from each stratum, with the probability of selec­
tion proportionate to the population size in the PSU. PSU’s
in strata by themselves are self-representing, and generally

Noninterview adjustment. The weights for all inter­
viewed households are inflated to account for occupied
sampled households for which no information was ob­
tained because of impassable roads, refusals, unavail­
ability of the respondent, or other reasons. The

proportion of sample households not interviewed for
these reasons generally varies from 4 to 5 percent.

a national adjustment is made by the race categories
of white, black, and other races to independent esti­
mates by age and sex. The white and black categories
contain 32 age-sex groups each while the other races
category has 6 age-sex cells.
The entire second-stage ratio estimation procedure
is iterated six times and, when completed, insures that
the adjusted sample population estimates, both for the
States and the national age-sex-race-Hispanic origin
categories, will be virtually equal to the independent
population estimates for these categories.
The monthly independent State controls for the civilian
noninstitutional population 16 years and over are based
on an arithmetic extrapolation of the trend in population
growth from the April 1, 1980, census through the July
1 provisional estimate for the current year, with all State
estimates prorated to a current estimate of the U.S. popu­
lation. A description of the methodology used to derive
the independent national age-sex-race-Hispanic origin es­
timates and State totals may be obtained from the Chief
of the Population Division, U.S. Bureau of the Census,
Washington, DC. 20233.

Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population as
estimated by the sample may differ somewhat each
month, by chance, from that of the population as a
whole in such characteristics as age, sex, ethnic origin,
and residence. Since these characteristics are closely
correlated with labor force participation and other prin­
cipal measurements made from the sample, the latter
estimates can be substantially improved when adjusted
appropriately to conform to the known distribution of
these population characteristics. This is accomplished
through two stages of ratio estimation as follows:

a. First-stage ratio estimate. As explained above, non­
self-representing PSU’s are chosen to represent not only
themselves, but also other unsampled areas. The firststage ratio adjustment procedure is designed to cor­
rect for the differences that existed at the time of the
1980 census between the distribution of the population
by race in the non-self-representing sample areas and
the corresponding distribution in the entire geograph­
ic area from which the non-self-representing areas were
selected. The adjustment is made at the State level for
each of the 43 States which contain non-selfrepresenting areas by the race categories of black and
non-black. The first-stage adjustment factors are de­
rived using the non-self-representing pus ’s in the sam­
ple, and hence, are recomputed only when a new PSU
is rotated into the sample.

3 . Composite estimate procedure. In deriving the statis­
tics for a given month, a composite estimating proce­
dure is used to take account of net changes in the
sample results from the previous month for the con­
tinuing 75 percent of the households in the sample. It
is a weighted average of data from the current and
previous months, and includes an additional term which
is an estimate of the net difference between incoming
and continuing parts of the current month’s sample.
Almost all estimates of month-to-month change are im­
proved by this procedure. Most estimates of levels are
also improved, but to a lesser extent.

b. Second-stage ratio estimate. This stage is designed
to adjust the inflated first-stage estimates to conform
to the most recent distribution of the entire U.S. popu­
lation by age-sex-race-Hispanic origin and is conducted
in three steps.
In the first step, the sample population and labor
force estimates are adjusted within each State and the
District of Columbia using an independent control for
the population 16 years and over for that area. In ef­
fect, the ratio of the independent and sample popula­
tions is used to inflate the sample labor force estimates.
The second step involves an adjustment by Hispanic
origin to a national estimate for eight age-sex categories
by Hispanic and non-Hispanic origin.1In the third step,

Reliability of the estimates

1 Prior to January 1985, there w as no separate control for Hispanics in
the second-stage ratio estimation procedure. T hese controls are prepared by
carrying forward the 1980 census count for Hispanics by adding estimated
Hispanic births and immigrants and subtracting estimated Hispanic deaths and
emigrants to yield an estim ate o f the Hispanic population by age and sex.
In addition, the second-stage ratio estim ation procedure w as revised in
January 1986 to reflect an explicit allow ance for net undocumented immigra­
tion (m ostly H ispanic) since April 1, 1980 (the census date) and an increase
in the estim ate o f em igration o f legal foreign-bom residents, also since 1980.
The nature and effect o f these changes on the labor force estim ates are d is­
cu ssed in detail in “ C hanges in the E stim ation Procedure in the Current
Population Survey B eginning in January 1 9 8 6 ” in the February 1986 issue
o f Employment and Earnings.

Since the estimates in this report are based upon a sample
of the population rather than a complete count, they may
differ from the figures that would have been obtained if it
had been possible to take a complete census using the same
schedules and procedures as are used in the CPS. There are
two types of errors in an estimate based on a sample
survey—sampling and nonsampling. The sampling error ta­
bles in this report primarily indicate the magnitude of the
sampling error. They also partially measure the effect of
some nonsampling errors in response and enumeration, but
do not measure any systematic biases in the data.
In general, the error of a sample estimate varies inverse­
ly with the size of the sample and directly with the size of
the estimate. Hence, an estimate for a subgroup constituting
a small proportion of a population will tend to have a smaller
absolute (and larger relative) error than an estimate for a sub­
group constituting a large proportion of that same population.

Reliability standards

Table B-14 shows that an estimate of 50,000 unemployed
persons (total or white) in Alabama will have an absolute
sampling error of 11,000, and a relative sampling error of
22 percent, while an estimate of 100,000 unemployed per­
sons in Alabama has an absolute sampling error of 15,000
and a relative sampling error of 15 percent.
The statement that unemployment in Alabama is between
39,000 and 61,000 in the first instance, and between 85,000
and 115,000 in the second, is made with 90-percent confi­
dence. If repeated samples were drawn from the same popu­
lation and a confidence interval (based on the sample estimate
plus and minus the sampling error) were constructed for each
sample estimate, the true value based on a complete census
of the population would be contained within 90 percent of
these intervals. Hence, we can be 90-percent confident that
the interval constructed does, in fact, contain the true value.
To calculate a 68-percent interval (two chances out of
three), multiply the sampling error shown by 0.63. To con­
vert the sampling error to 95-percent confidence (19 chances
out of 20), multiply the sampling error by 1.23. For the ex­
ample given above, the sampling error at 90-percent confi­
dence was 11,000. At 68-percent confidence, the error would
be about 6,900 (11,000 x 0.63 = 6,930). At 95-percent con­
fidence, the error would be about 13,500 (11,000 x 1.23 =
13,530).
To compute the error of a difference from the tables, an
additional step is required. If, for instance, one wishes to
know whether a change in the unemployment rate from 1985
to 1986 in a particular area is statistically significant, or
whether the difference in the unemployment rate between
two areas or population groups is statistically meaningful,
the significance of the difference needs to be computed.
To test for the significance of a difference, the following
formula should be used:

Since the C P S is designed to produce both national and
State estimates, the proportion of the total population sam­
pled and, hence, the sampling ratios differ among the States.
In general, the smaller the population of the State, the larg­
er the sampling proportion. For example, in Alaska approx­
imately 1 in every 200 households was sampled each month
in 1986, whereas in California the sample covered about 1
in every 2,200 households. Nevertheless, the size of the sam­
ple in California is 4 times larger than in Alaska because
California has a larger percentage of the national population.
Differences in the probability of selecting each household
in each State are necessary to obtain total unemployment lev­
els meeting a minimum level of reliability—a maximum ex­
pected annual coefficient of variation of 10 percent, at one
standard error, given a 6-percent unemployment rate. Be­
fore C PS labor force data for a State or area can be used as
the official estimates in the Federal-State Cooperative Pro­
gram, the size of the sample for that area must be large
enough to produce estimates meeting that minimum standard
of reliability.
Publication standards for State and area

cps

data

In order to achieve comparability of the data for regions,
divisions, States, metropolitan areas, and cities for publica­
tion purposes, a unique requirement for minimum labor
force, employment, and unemployment had to be developed
for each area. This requirement is based on the known differ­
ences in sampling ratios among these areas. Before estimates
are published for a specific category, a predetermined “ crit­
ical cell’’ must meet the comparable minimum publication
standard for national C PS data. As a result of this require­
ment, minimum bases for publication have been developed
for each area. Table B-l lists the minimum necessary base
for publication of data in each of the regions, divisions,
States, the District of Columbia, and the metropolitan areas
and cities appearing in this bulletin.
Estimates are not shown when they do not meet the mini­
mum base for the State or area listed in table B-l. In tables
showing the labor force status of the population, the critical
cell is the size of the labor force of the particular population
group. In all other tables, the determining factor or critical
cell is the size of the base of the distribution,i.e., the size
of total employment or unemployment for that area or popu­
lation subgroup. Data are not published for any cell with few­
er than 500 persons or less than 0.5 percent.

are not available. (If the relationship between the two groups
or years is small, the “C” term may be ignored. If, however,
there is a strong positive relationship between the two groups,
then the error computed without the “ C” term will be over­

change in the CPS unemployment rate in Alaska from 10.0
percent in 1985 to 8.0 percent in 1986 is significant. As­
sume that the labor force was about 100,000 in both years.
Table B-20 in the 1985 Geographic Profile gives the error
for a 10.0-percent unemployment rate as 1.28, and table B-20
in this year’s Geographic Profile gives the error for an
8.0-percent unemployment rate as 1.23. Using the formula

E = error of the S (18,000)

If the sample estimate lies outside the boundaries of the er­
ror tables, extrapolation can be used to approximate the sam­
pling error. The formula for extrapolation is the same as that
for interpolation; however, the “ F” term is the highest value
in the table and the “G” term becomes the next highest value.

1.78

Derivation of sampling errors

Assuming a negligible “ C” term, the error of the differ­
ence is about 1.8. Since the actual change (2.0 percent) ex­
ceeds the error of the difference, it can be stated, with
90-percent confidence, that the difference in rates is attributa­
ble to factors other than sampling error alone.
To derive a sampling error for a given estimate, it may
be necessary to use interpolation or extrapolation. For ex­
ample, table B-14 contains no sampling error for an estimate
of 150,000 unemployed persons in Alabama. The following
formula shows how to interpolate for an estimate of 150,000
in Alabama:
Es =




[[(S-G) / (F-G)] x (X-Y)]

F = published size immediately above the size
desired (200,000)

These State and area sampling errors are developed using
a generalized procedure and are not based on the sample data
for each individual area. As with all sampling error tables
produced for CPS State and area data, a number of approxi­
mations were required in order to derive sampling errors that
would be applicable to a wide variety of items. As a result,
these sampling errors provide an indication of the order of
magnitude of a sampling error rather than a precise sampling
error for any specific item. The sampling error tables are
derived from standard error equations and special parameters
developed by the Bureau of the Census. These may be ob­
tained from bls upon request.
