The 1.0 Scenario (1990-2000): This scenario assumes that the trends in the age, sex and race/ethnicity net migration rates of the 1990s will characterize those occurring in the future of Texas. It is seen as the high growth alternative because its overall total decade pattern is one of substantial growth.

Therefore, although data on all groups are collected, the ancestry data shown in these tabulations are for Non-Hispanic and nonrace groups. Hispanic and race groups are included in the ‘‘other groups’’ category for the ancestry tables in these tabulations.

^The Consumer Expenditure database consists of a multi-level hierarchical classification of household expenditures, which covers the majority of annual household expenditures. It is derived from an extensive modeling effort using the 2001-2002 Consumer Expenditure Survey data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The BLS survey is a comprehensive survey that averages more than 5,000 households four times a year using a rotating sampling frame. The use of several consecutive years of data provides a rich base of expenditure data from which to build expenditure models based on household demographics.
