* Data are based on a five year sample (sixty monthly samples) and are subject to sampling error.

** The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error (abbreviated here as “MoE”). The value shown here is the 95 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted roughly as providing a 95 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value.
