TABLE 256.-Per cent of persons in each conjugal condition, by sex, age groups, and by general nativity and race of individual.

(STUDY OF HOUSEHOLDS.)

[This table includes only races with 80 or more persons reporting. The totals, however, are for all races.]

Of the total number of persons 20 years of age or over, 75.6 per cent are married, 19.1 per cent single, and 5.3 per cent widowed. In every age group the greater proportion of persons are married, but the proportion of persons of from 20 to 29 years of age who are married is considerably smaller than the proportion in any other group. Moreover, the native-born of foreign father in every age group show a larger proportion single than the foreign-born, the difference being most marked in the group 20 to 29 years of age.

In the latter age group a considerably larger proportion of females are married than of males. In the age groups 30 to 44 and 45 or over, a predominating proportion of males are married. The females, however, in every group show a larger proportion widowed than the males, the difference being most marked in the group of persons 45 years of age or over.

TABLE 257.—Per cent of persons within each age group, by sex and by general nativity and race of head of household Continued.

Of 3,414 persons included in the above table, 24.3 per cent are from 20 to 29 years of age, 20.1 per cent are from 30 to 44 years of age, 18.7 per cent are under 6 years of age, 14.2 per cent are from 6 to 13 years of age, and 11.4 per cent are from 16 to 19 years of age, less than 5 per cent are from 14 to 15 years of age, and less than 10 per cent being 45 years of age or over. Of the persons in the households the heads of which are foreign-born who are under 6, from 16 to 19, or 20 to 29 years of age, the proportion is larger than in the households the heads of which are native-born of foreign father, and the reverse is true as regards the proportion who are of each other specified age. Over 50 per cent of the persons in the households the heads of which are of each foreign-born race, except Hebrew, Polish, or Ruthenian, are 20 years of age or over. Of the total number of males and females the proportion within each specified age group, except from 16 to 19 or 30 to 44 years, is approximately the same. The females show the larger proportion in the former of the two groups excepted, and the males the larger proportion in the latter.

CRIMINALITY.

The only available information as to criminality in Community D was supplied by the police docket for the official year from July 1, 1907, to June 30, 1908. In this docket persons arrested are classified according to offenses charged and country of birth. As the docket records arrests, and not convictions, and as the lack of exact data as to population would in any case make it impossible to compute a rate of criminality for the several races, the docket does not supply a reliable indication of racial or national characteristics. The data are, however, presented, without comment, for what they are worth.

Enumeration of arrests of adults in Community D, from July 1, 1907, to June 30, 1908, by country of birth.
