The Quick Reference Statistics are snapshot data for midnight (12am) on the last day of the month, comparison information for the same month of the previous year.

For this reason data may change slightly from month to month or quarter to quarter. Time series statistics are reported in the Quarterly Statistical Report. A glossary of definitions is at the end of each report.
