A web site given in Related Links (below) is one of several that provide frequency information on US surnames. It claims to use information from the 1990 U.S. Census and lists 18839 last names in percent frequency order (comes in groups of 1000 to 4000 names per page). The counts are a bit squirrel because they apparently did the counting of each name, then calculated the percentage, rounded that percentage to 3 decimal places and then reversed the process and calculated the number of each name by multiplying the rounded off percentage times the grand total. This makes the counts to be the same for large groups of names... i.e.: there at 11 last names that are listed as having 92,019 people with that name because the percentage rounded to 0.037. Strange that they could not keep the exact count for each name even if they rounded the percentage. It is even more obvious for the least common names at the bottom of the list... The last 11340 names are all listed as being 0.001 percent of the total and that then is calculate to all of them having a count of 2,487. The Counts, sum to 197,955,252, but the percentages sum to only 79.596%, so there are many very low frequently used names missing from the list.

What is occupational structure?
9 essential Features of Occupation Structure1. Agriculture is Main Occupation:In India, currently about 66.7 percent of population is engaged in agriculture as against 71 percent in 1901. It has given rise to disguised unemployment. Therefore, there is very little chance of reducing the burden of population on agriculture.2. Less Development of Industries:In India only 17 percent of population depends on manufacturing industries, mining etc. In USA 32 percent, in England 42 percent and in Japan 39 percent people are engaged in secondary sector. It proves that India is industrially backward.3. Unbalanced:Indian economy is highly unbalanced. All production activities are not equally developed. Too much dependence on agriculture is a symptom of economic backwardness.4. Less Income:Per capita income and the standard of living of the people in India are low. It is so because agriculture yields less income than trade.5. Small Villages:Predominance of agriculture testifies that most of the people in India must be living in small villages and the number of people living in towns and cities must be very small. In India, 76 percent of population lives in rural areas and 24 percent in urban areas.6. Backward Agriculture:In India, 64 percent of population is engaged in agriculture, yet it imports food grains from other countries. It confirms that our agriculture is very backward. On the other hand, in America 2 percent of population is engaged in agriculture which exports the surplus of food to other countries. Thus it becomes imperative that agricultural sector should be developed.7. Increase in the Proportion of Agricultural Labourers:The proportion of agricultural labourers has been rising during the period of planning. It underlines the fact that the number of wage-earners is increasing in agricultural sector.8. Less Development of Tertiary Activities:Tertiary activities like services, banking and communication, transport etc. are not much developed in India. In India, 20.5 percent of population is engaged in tertiary activities as against 66 percent in America, 56 percent in England and 49 percent in Japan.9. Trends in Occupational Structure:That there has been no significant change in the occupational structure of India for the last one century.
