Urban Cluster Outline Maps (Census 2000) [PDF]


Description
These maps show the boundaries, names and codes of urban clusters, as well as the named features underlying the boundaries. They also show the boundaries, names and codes for American Indian/Alaska Native/Hawaiian home land areas, counties, county subdivisions, and places. These are large format maps, designed for output on 36" x 33" paper. The scale of the maps is optimized to keep the number of map sheets for each urban cluster to a minimum. The map scale and number of map sheets will vary by the size and complexity of the urban cluster.

Census 2000 UA Criteria
These maps represent the UCs as reported in the May 1, 2002 Federal Register and do not reflect the corrections that were reported in the August 23, 2002 Federal Register notice. (The Census Bureau will produce corrected maps for selected urban areas at a later date.) To view the federal register notices outlining the classification and criteria for Census 2000 urban areas, as well as links to download lists of Census 2000 urban clusters, refer to the Census Bureau's Urban and Rural Classification Web page.
