Notes:

Data are for 2006.
US total excludes territories.
Territory data are from Source 2.
Race and Hispanic origin are reported separately on birth certificates. Race categories are consistent with the 1977 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) standards. Nineteen states reported multiple-race data in 2005. The multiple-race data for these states were bridged to the single-race categories of the 1977 OMB standards for comparability with other states. In this table Hispanic women are classified only by place of origin; non-Hispanic women are classified by race.
