The USA Today may have used block level geography to match 2000
geography. However, the 2010 PL 94-171 data are based on 2010
geographies, including municipal boundaries.

look up localities/municipalities on USAtoday.com and at the bottom is a hot link
"about this data." In this pop-up, it says the following about population.....

the population in the 2000 boundary with the population in the 2010 boundary. No
comparison is made for areas that are substantially new or the product of a merger or
consolidation.

exploring AF2 and I want to ensure I understand what boundary, 2000 or 2010, the
population count refers to before doing additional analysis. Can anyone confirm that the
Redistricting data just released for 2010 population counts for municipalities/localities
is based on 2000 or 2010 municipal/local boundaries? Because of annexations and other
issues/changes some boundary changes are now different in multiple municipalities in
Montgomery MPO. Thank you for your help.
