The publication presents data on the number and geographic distribution of uneducated adults in the state of California giving information that can be used to provide meaningful programs for adults. Data have been tabulated by area ("standard metropolitan statistical areas," counties, and "urban placed") and by population groups (total population, nonwhite population, and Spanish-surname population). The specific factors with which the study is concerned are the number of adults with less than a fifth grade education, the median school years completed by adults in each population group, and the family income.
