Description
Metadata: Review and/or download a 3-page metadata document (.pdf format) from the CCWRA web site. Description from CCWRA (June 2015): This GIS file is a subset of the Census 2010 Urbanized Area, limited to the boundaries of Chester County, PA. The original data contained Urban Clusters, which were removed. The data was given a projected coordinate system, but no other changes have been made to the original source data. The source data was downloaded in May 2015 from the following website: http://www.census.gov/geo/reference/ua/urban-rural-2010.html Description from US Census Bureau: The TIGER/Line Files are shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) that are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line File is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. After each decennial census, the Census Bureau delineates urban areas that represent densely developed territory, encompassing residential, commercial, and other nonresidential urban land uses. In general, this territory consists of areas of high population density and urban land use resulting in a representation of the "urban footprint." There are two types of urban areas: urbanized areas (UAs) that contain 50,000 or more people and urban clusters (UCs) that contain at least 2,500 people, but fewer than 50,000 people (except in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Guam which each contain urban clusters with populations greater than 50,000). Each urban area is identified by a 5-character numeric census code that may contain leading zeroes. How should this data set be cited? U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Census Bureau, 2015.
