(The statistics in this series are issued in advance of publication in final reports. The series consists of 52 reports—one for the United States, each of the 50 States, and the District of Columbia. They are numbered in alphabetical order rather than in order of publication.)
This report presents data on equipment—clothes washing machines, clothes dryers, home food freezers, telephones, automobiles, air conditioning equipment, television sets, radios, and heating equipment. The information is provided for the United States by regions, geographic divisions, and States.
The data represent final tabulations from the 1960 Census of Housing. They are based on information collected from samples of housing units and, therefore, are subject to sampling variability. The figures in this report may differ from those in other reports from the 1960 Census of Housing due to processing procedures.
Census statistics date back to 1790 and reflect the growth and change of the United States. Past census reports contain some terms that today’s readers may consider obsolete and inappropriate. As part of our goal to be open and transparent with the public, we are improving access to all Census Bureau original publications and statistics, which serve as a guide to the nation's history.
