Source: American Community Survey five-year estimates (table S1501), by county and state, through the Census API. A stand-in: the survey describes all adults 25 and over in an area, not parents. The scoping report's preferred measure needs the survey's microdata and is not published as a table. Five-year estimates ending in the year shown.
