Note(s):
Beginning with 2006, the distinction between full-year and part-year
members and households has been removed. Spending data are collected for the
reference year for all members of the household at the time of the interview.
Since the data for the 1997-2005 were based on full-year members
only, to maintain the comparability with prior years, the data for 1997-2005 have
been revised to include both full-year and part-year households.
