Today the Census Bureau published the criteria it plans on using to describe urbanized area boundaries. There is a text version and PDF online. The PDF version has some graphics that are not in the text. Below is the URL for the PDF. I have also included the short URL to the NARA site incase the long link doesn't work. I am sure once we have had a chance to wade through this there will be some discussion. By the way, comments are due by April 27, 2001 http://a257.g.akamaitech.net/7/257/2422/14mar20010800/frwebgate.access.gpo.… http://www.nara.gov/fedreg/index.html#top -- Ed Christopher Bureau of Transportation Statistics U.S. Department of Transportation 400 Seventh Street SW Washington DC 20590 202-366-0412
