PLEASE NOTE: Due to changes in the weighting methodology and other factors, results from 2018
are NOT comparable to 2010 and earlier years.

Sub-Group estimates have been suppressed because they do not meet statistical reliability standards.

Percentages are weighted to population characteristics and therefore cannot be calculated exactly from the numbers in this table.
