The ori, raw, and wgt components are from US Census ACS (American Community Survey) PUMS (Public Use Micro Sample) 2004 data set containing two demographic factors: Tenure (ten) and Household Size (np), along with a weight variable wgtp, for the state Florida. They are further collapsed using the R function aggregate so that each factor combination in ori is unique.

The mar component gives the marginal distribution of Tenure (2 levels) and Household Size (5 levels) from US Census SF1 (Summary File 1) 2000 data containing table H4 (Tenure) and H13 (Household Size) for the state Florida.
