Caution: There are two major limitations of this dataset. The first is missing data from four states (Colorado, Hawaii, Louisiana, and New Hampshire) and all the U.S. territories (Guam, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa). The second limitation results from methodological and structural differences between states’ original datasets. Please see the “Limitations” section of the technical note for additional information.
