Notes: Percentages may not sum due to rounding. A limited number of areas were part of the NRFU “soft launch” beginning July 16 and could have higher completion rates due to more time in the field. Percentages for the U.S. Total do not include housing units in Puerto Rico.

Percentage of housing units self-responded: The percentage of self-responding housing units reported in the response rate map. 
Percentage of housing units enumerated in NRFU: The percentage of total housing units resolved in the field during the Nonresponse Followup (NRFU) operation (excludes self-response). Cases completed in the field for Update Enumerate and Remote Alaska operations are included in this rate to ensure coverage of the full housing unit universe. This rate does not reflect the progress within the NRFU operation as it is relative to total housing units and not just the NRFU workload.
Percentage of housing units enumerated: The cumulative percentage of total housing units enumerated via self-response or during the NRFU operation.
