Note: The April 1, 2000 estimates base reflects changes to the Census 2000 population resulting from legal boundary updates as of January 1 of the estimates year, other geographic program changes, and the Count Question Resolution program. All geographic boundaries for the July 1, 2006 population estimates series are defined as of January 1, 2006. The Office of Management and Budget's statistical area definitions (for metropolitan, micropolitan, and combined statistical areas, as well as metropolitan divisions) are those issued by that agency in December 2005.
The metropolitan, micropolitan, and combined statistical area population estimates are based upon the county estimates.
