Hello,
I'm curious about TAZ identifiers for certain counties in the CTPP 2000 data set. For example, in Clay County, Missouri (FIPS #047), TAZs are numbered 299-376 with some delineated like 363A and 363B, while others aren't (with no letter concatenated). I'm assuming in this case, 363A and 363B were subdivided from 363. Is that correct?
Thanks.
