Table Notes:

* The percentage of filers for these states was deemed somewhat unreliable, as less than 12 families responded to the survey in these states in any one of the two years. An exception was made for two states where at least 12 families responded to the survey in a year and it corroborated the other year's results (the results were within 10 percent of each other).
