| Note: These are estimates modeled from the relation between poverty and tax and program data |
| for the states and a subset of counties using estmimates of poverty from the Current Population |
| Survey (CPS) Annual Social and Economic Supplement (ASEC). The modeled relations are used |
| to obtain estimates for all states and counties. Estimating measures of uncertainty is an integral |
| part of the overall process. Estimated standard errors provide confidence intervals around each |
| estimate that can be used to evaluate the quality of the estimate. |
