Re: [CTPP] does anyone know when the 2010 Urban Area boundaries will be released

Ben, There's only one set of maps-- the reference maps that will be released in October. The purpose of those maps is to show the boundaries for each urban area, features, and other census geographic areas in and around the urban area. The March release will be the TIGER/Line shapefile layer containing boundaries for each urban area. People can use those shapefiles to make maps for each urban area, or to map in a GIS. We also will release the list of urbanized areas and urban clusters, along with the total population of each urban area. We also will provide other information about each urban area, such as land area and population density. The March release will provide the information needed to know which areas are new urbanized areas, which areas have exceeded various population thresholds, and other changes in the urban and rural population and land area between 2000 and 2010. SF1 data for urban areas are scheduled for release in October. Mike ______________________________________ Michael R.

Defined by census, which are done for us in the second set?

The list of urban areas and their 2010 populations will be released in March, along with urban area TIGER/Line shapefiles, which will provide GIS users with the ability to map boundaries of urban areas. Urbanized area/urban cluster reference maps will be released in October 2012. ______________________________________ Michael R.
