Columns (4)

Column	Type	Statistics	Description
State Code	string	—	Standard geographic code identifying the state or territory.
State	string	—	The name of the US state, district, or territory.
Total Population	integer	min 579,761 · max 39,242,785 · μ 6454662.02	Total Population (B01003_001E), 2023 — the collection's standard population attribute for this geography, included on every statistics dataset. Where a selected attribute is itself a table total, prefer that one as the denominator for its own table: per-table disclosure control means totals from different tables can differ slightly.
Median Household Income	integer	min 25,096 · max 106,287 · μ 77173.40	The median income received in the past 12 months by households in the area, expressed in 2023 inflation-adjusted dollars. Areas with no measurable base for this statistic — no usual residents, or no value published by the source — are left blank rather than shown as zero, so they are not read as the lowest value on the scale.
