       1 Data refer to persons who had 3 or more years of tenure on a job they had lost or left between
     January 2001 and December 2003 because of plant or company closings or moves, insufficient work, or the
     abolishment of their positions or shifts.
       2 Data not shown where base is less than 75,000.
       NOTE:  Estimates for the above race groups (white, black or African American, and Asian) do not sum
     to totals because data are not presented for all races.  In addition, persons whose ethnicity is
     identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well
     as by race.
