Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia. Those who answered yes were classified as having an arthritis diagnosis.
Race is based on a respondent's description of their own racial background, regardless of Hispanic or Latino origin. More than one race may be reported. "Only" indicates only a single race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations.
