Data for White, Black, Asian, Pacific Islander, American Indian/Alaska Native, Other Single Race, and Two or More Races do not include Hispanics/Latinos.  Hispanic/Latino ethnicity includes persons of any race.
Respondents may select more than one race on death certificates, but not on birth certificates.
* Preliminary files may still contain errors and may have duplicate or missing records.
** No 2007 records have been received from New York City yet.  About 3,400 New Jersey residents give birth and about 700 die in New York City annually.  About 11 months of non-NYC 2007 birth records and very limited 2006-2007 death records have been processed.
