NOTE: There were 115,513 "Other Race" persons included in the 1990 Census for Washington State. The existence of this group is inconsistent with the race categories defined by the Office of Management and Budget in OMB Directive 15. Therefore, it is necessary to assign each of these persons to a specified race. Persons of Hispanic Origin may be of any race. Detail will not add due to rounding and unrounded numbers are not meant to imply precision.
