Boundary Maps for County Subdivisions and Census Geographical Units:

1. Neighborhood/Block Group (BG) - The BG is smallest geographic unit for which the Census Bureau publishes demographic data such as household income, home values, the number of homes that are owner occupied, renter occupied or vacant. Typically, a BG contains between 600 and 3,000 people.
2. Census Tracts are small, relatively permanent statistical subdivisions of a county or equivalent entity. The primary purpose of census tracts is to provide a stable set of geographic units for the presentation of statistical data and generally have a population size between 1,200 and 8,000 people, with an optimum size of 4,000 people. Census tract boundaries generally follow visible and identifiable features.
3. County Subdivisions (CDs) can be either legal or statistical. Twentynine states have legal entities that are Minor Civil Disisions (MSDs) and are the primairy governmental or administratitive divisions of a county or it's equivalent. In those states without MCDs, Census County Divisone (CCDs) are delineated by the Census Bureau with state, tribal, and local officials for statistical purposes.
4. Census Designated Places (CDPs) are the statistical counterparts of incorporated places. They have defined boundaries and are delineated to provide data for settled concentrations of population that are identifiable by name but are not legally incorporated and have no legal status.
