2/A 90-percent confidence interval is a measure of an estimate's variability.  The larger the confidence interval
    in relation to the size of the estimate, the less reliable the estimate.
r = Revised
* = Data suppressed to avoid disclosure
+ = Estimated to be less than one half of one percent OR cannot be estimated
- = No activity
# = Withheld because the estimate did not meet publication standards because of the associated standard error
