Clarification

To clarify a story in Monday's Metro section, the 2000 Census stopped classifying Hispanic/Latino as a race. Because of that, figures for the Census may be unclear. The 2000 Census shows that 72 percent of Clark County's population is classified as white, and that can include some of those of Hispanic/Latino origin. According to the Census, 60 percent of the county population is white and not of Hispanic or Latino origin. Overall, the 2000 Census said 22 percent of Clark County's population had Hispanic or Latino origins.
