Definitions

This page discusses the self-reported ancestry of the residents of the Wilkes-Barre Township.

Consequently, the sum of the counts over all the ancestries most often exceeds the total population of the entity. Asian and Hispanic ancestry is reported separately from European, Middle Eastern, and Subsaharan African ancestry. A full list of all possible categories is as follows:
