Race and Hispanic/Latino origin by age As many have noted. the population under age 18 highlights how our future population will be increasingly diverse. Table 3 provides the same breakdown by race and Hispanic/Latino origin of Ramsey's population under age 18 and age 18+.

See additional notes below. About the data • The above tables contain the official terms for race groups as defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget. We use these for consistency with the data as reported by the Census Bureau while emphasizing the following: o Each of the groups has considerable diversity within it. For example. the Black population includes both descendants of enslaved people and recent African immigrants, while the Asian population includes Asian Indian, Chinese. Hmong, and Vietnamese residents along with many other groups. Many people prefer to be called by those more specific cultural community names rather than the federal government's broad labels. The redistricting dataset does not allow for distinctions among communities within these race groups; please see the Council's Equity Considerations dataset (https://metrocouncil.org/Data-and-Maps/Research-and-Data/Place-based-Equity-Research.aspx) for more information. o Many people prefer different language for these broad labels. For example, in place of "Latino," some use "Latino a." "Chicano/a," or gender -neutral alternatives like "Latinx" or''Latine." And in place of '`American Indian," some use "Native American" or "Indigenous." • Several factors may complicate the comparison of 2010 and 2020 race data; you can find an overview at https://www.census.gov/newsroom/blogs/random-samplings.html. * This data release contains only the numbers needed for redrawing legislative districts. Additional data. like household type and full age breakdowns. will be released later.
