Table 3. Example of LOOKUP output in tab-delimited format

This format is designed to be loaded into a spreadsheet or database or other application program. The irregular column arrangement is due to invisible tabs which are embedded in the file. In your Web browser, use the horizontal scroll bar to completely view each row of data.

FIPS.STATE, FIPS.COUNTY90, and FIPS.TRACT90 are numeric codes used to uniquely identify each record. STUB.GEO (e.g. "Tract 1") is the name of the geographic area. P0010001 (table P1, cell 1) is total population. P0060001 through P060005 (table P6, cells 1-5) are race-specific populations. H023B001 (table H23B, cell 1) is the median value of housing units. For the full description of each column, refer to Table 2.
