Everyone included in this metric, with no demographic filters

Who is included?

Civilian noninstitutionalized population age 25–64.

Grouped by Education attainment milestone. Each group uses the same population filters.

What this selection shows

2024 · No demographic filters

12 of 12 estimates loaded so far are available. The displayed all education attainment levels estimates range from 2.3% to 90.7% for the loaded results. A difference between estimates does not by itself show a statistically significant difference. Check the paired difference confidence interval and reliability labels when available; separate population margins of error do not test that difference.

What do the availability labels mean?
Absent coverage
This combination is not included in the release. No estimate or reliability assessment is available.
Ineligible selection
The selected group falls outside the measure’s population universe or valid category combinations. A broader release cannot make that statistic eligible.
Undefined or missing input
A zero denominator makes a statistic undefined. Missing required information prevents calculation. These are distinct from withholding an otherwise defined estimate under reliability rules.
Suppressed
A result exists, but its estimate and uncertainty are withheld under the release’s reliability rules. This is not a zero.
Unstable
The estimate is shown with uncertainty, but its relative standard error exceeds the release’s threshold. Use caution.
Stable
The estimate meets the release’s sample size and relative standard error thresholds. It still has sampling uncertainty.
