Background...
I am the Principal Investigator for a new project (NCHRP 25-36),
funded by the Transportation Research Board, to investigate the
land use-transportation interactions in small areas and rural
areas in the U.S. (A brief description of the project is available
at: http://144.171.11.40/cmsfeed/TRBNetProjectDisplay.asp?ProjectID=2987.
I am working closely with Joe Huegy at North Carolina State
University. The Project Officer is Nanda Srinivasan.) One of our
first tasks is to develop a typology of those areas, for the
specific purpose of guiding development and application of the
empirical methods that we will use to quantitatively characterize
those interactions. Of course, an excellent starting point for our
work on the new typology is the Census Bureau's delineation of
Urbanized Areas and Urban Clusters based on the 2000 Census.
Question...
Where may I find the codes for the 24 Urban Clusters that consist
entirely or predominantly of persons living in institutional group
quarters, to which the Census Bureau draws attention in its
Federal Register notice about the proposed urban area criteria for
the 2010 census? See 75 FR 52178.
Thanks
