In more recent years, metropolitan statistical area data are included. None of the pages of source material have been reduced in size for this compilation, but the margins of some have been reduced.

For easier reference to the original volumes, their page numbers have been left showing. Pages are keyed to the census year, rather than in a continuous numeration. In the table of contents, three identifications are given for each volume: the document classification (i.e. Serial Set or Superintendent of Documents classification number), the coding by Henry J. Dubester in this Catalog of United States Census Publications: 1790-1945 or the pages of then 1872 census catalog, and the Library of Congress classification number. This publication was intended as a contribution to the celebration of Colorado's Centennial. The Northern Colorado Research and Publications Committee supplied the funds for the printing and binding of a limited number of copies of this original edition for distribution to Colorado libraries and interested persons. It is believed that the printing and binding of an even more limited quantity of the revised edition were produced. Second Edition, Revised, presumed First printing thus.
