This map shows one dot for each child less than five years old as reported in the 2010 U.S. Census. The census allows respondents to identify themselves as any combination of races, plus Hispanic or non-Hispanic origin. When reporting age groups, the census distinguishes between Hispanic white and non-Hispanic white, but does not make the same distinction for Asian and black. So, Asian and black respondents who also identified as Hispanic will be be represented twice on this map. Multiracial children and children of other races are not represented on this map. Dots are placed randomly within census blocks and do not indicate the location of a child.
