State, County and City FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) codes are a set of numeric designations given to state, cities and counties by the U.S. federal government. All geographic data submitted to the FRA must have a FIPS code.

BackgroundThis table contains State and County codes for all 50 States. One column contains a CalHHS Departmental "local" County code. This code is the numeric sequence of the 58 Counties in California. Many of the State systems (especially legacy systems) can only work with these legacy local County codes.FIPS Class Codes (CLASSFP)H1: Identifies an active county or statistically equivalent entity that does not qualify under subclass C7 or H6.H4: Identifies a legally defined inactive or nonfunctioning county or statistically equivalent entity that does not qualify under subclass H6.H5: Identifies census areas in Alaska, a statistical county equivalent entity.H6: Identifies a county or statistically equivalent entity that is coextensive in area or governmentally consolidated with an incorporated place, part of an incorporated place, or a consolidated city.C7: Identifies an incorporated place that is an independent of any county.Functional Status Codes (FUNCSTAT)A: Identifies an active government providing primary general-purpose functions.B: Identifies an active government that is partially consolidated with another government but with separate officials providing primary general-purpose functions.C: Identifies an active government consolidated with another government with a single set of officials.F: Identifies a fictitious entity created to fill the Census Bureau's geographic hierarchy.G: Identifies an active government that is subordinate to another unit of government.N: Identifies a nonfunctioning legal entity.S: Identifies a statistical entity

The dataset contains a hierarchal listing of New York State counties, cities, towns, and villages, as well as official locality websites

This dataset contains a listing of incorporated places (cities and towns) and counties within the United States including the GNIS code, FIPS code, name, entity type and primary point (_location) for the entity. The types of entities listed in this dataset are based on codes provided by the U.S. Census Bureau, and include the following: C1 - An active incorporated place that does not serve as a county subdivision equivalent; C2 - An active incorporated place legally coextensive with a county subdivision but treated as independent of any county subdivision; C3 - A consolidated city; C4 - An active incorporated place with an alternate official common name; C5 - An active incorporated place that is independent of any county subdivision and serves as a county subdivision equivalent; C6 - An active incorporated place that partially is independent of any county subdivision and serves as a county subdivision equivalent or partially coextensive with a county subdivision but treated as independent of any county subdivision; C7 - An incorporated place that is independent of any county; C8 - The balance of a consolidated city excluding the separately incorporated place(s) within that consolidated government; C9 - An inactive or nonfunctioning incorporated place; H1 - An active county or statistically equivalent entity; H4 - A legally defined inactive or nonfunctioning county or statistically equivalent entity; H5 - A census areas in Alaska, a statistical county equivalent entity; and H6 - A county or statistically equivalent entity that is areally coextensive or governmentally consolidated with an incorporated place, part of an incorporated place, or a consolidated city.

Abstract (en): This data collection contains FIPS codes for state, county, county subdivision, and place, along with the 1990 Census tract number for each side of the street for the urban cores of 550 counties in the United States. Street names, including prefix and/or suffix direction (north, southeast, etc.) and street type (avenue, lane, etc.) are provided, as well as the address range for that portion of the street located within a particular Census tract and the corresponding Census tract number. The FIPS county subdivision and place codes can be used to determine the correct Census tract number when streets with identical names and ranges exist in different parts of the same county. Contiguous block segments that have consecutive address ranges along a street and that have the same geographic codes (state, county, Census tract, county subdivision, and place) have been collapsed together and are represented by a single record with a single address range. 2006-01-12 All files were removed from dataset 551 and flagged as study-level files, so that they will accompany all downloads. (1) Due to the number of files in this collection, parts have been eliminated here. For a complete list of individual part names designated by state and county, consult the ICPSR Website. (2) There are two types of records in this collection, distinguished by the first character of each record. A "0" indicates a street name/address range record that can be used to find the Census tract number and other geographic codes from a street name and address number. A "2" indicates a geographic code/name record that can be used to find the name of the state, county, county subdivision, and/or place from the FIPS code. The "0" records contain 18 variables and the "2" records contain 10 variables.

With coverage for the entire continental USA, this county-level shapefile is based on the FIPS codes used by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). Different than other governmental agencies, the BEA combines the independent cities in Virginia with their adjacent counties (https://www.bea.gov/regional/docs/statelist.cfm). This shapefile is to be used when analyzing county-level data from the BEA.

Dataset Summary About this data: This layer presents the USA 2020 Census tracts within the City of Rochester boundary. The geography is sourced from US Census Bureau 2020 TIGER FGDB (National Sub-State) and cut by the City of Rochester boundary. Data Dictionary: STATE_ABBR: The two-letter abbreviation for a state (such as NY). STATE_FIPS: The two-digit Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) code assigned to each US state. New York State is 36. COUNTY_FIP: The three-digit Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) code assigned to each US county. Monroe County is 055. STCO_FIPS: The five-digit Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) code assigned to iedntify a unique county, typically as a concatenation of the State FIPS code and the County FIPS code. TRACT_FIPS: The six-digit number assigned to each census tract in a US county. FIPS: A unique geographic identifier, typically as a concatenation of State FIPS code, County FIPS code, and Census tract code. POPULATION: The population of a census tract. POP_SQMI: The population per square mile of a census tract. SQMI: The size of a census tract in square miles. Division: The name of the City of Rochester data division that the census tract falls in to. Source: This data comes from the Census Bureau.

This layer was developed by the Research & Analytics Division of the Atlanta Regional Commission to represent the United States Census Bureau's 2010 Decennial Census data at the block group geography.Attributes:STATEFP10 = The Federal Information Processing Series (FIPS) state code. FIPS codes were formerly known as Federal Information Processing Standards codes, until the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) announced its decision in 2005 to remove geographic entity codes from its oversight. The Census Bureau continues to maintain and issue codes for geographic entities covered under FIPS oversight, albeit with a revised meaning for the FIPS acronym. Geographic entities covered under FIPS include states, counties, congressional districts, core based statistical areas, places, county subdivisions, subminor civil divisions, consolidated cities, and all types of American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian areas. FIPS codes are assigned alphabetically according to the name of the geographic entity and may change to maintain alphabetic sort when new entities are created or names change. FIPS codes for specific geographic entity types are usually unique within the next highest level of geographic entity with which a nesting relationship exists. For example, FIPS state, congressional district, and core based statistical area codes are unique within nation; FIPS county, place, county subdivision, and subminor civil division codes are unique within state. The codes for American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian areas also are unique within state; those areas in multiple states will have different codes for each state.COUNTYFP10 = The Federal Information Processing Series (FIPS) county code. TRACTCE10 = Census Tract Codes and Numbers—Census tracts are identified by an up to four-digit integer number and may have an optional two-digit suffix; for example 1457.02 or 23. The census tract codes consist of six digits with an implied decimal between the fourth and fifth digit corresponding to the basic census tract number but with leading zeroes and trailing zeroes for census tracts without a suffix. The tract number examples above would have codes of 145702 and 002300, respectively.BLKGRPCE10 = Block Group Codes—Block Groups have a valid code range of 0 through 9. Block Groups beginning with a zero only contain water area and are generally in coastal and Great Lakes water and territorial seas, but also in larger inland water bodies.GEOID10 = A concatenation of STATEFP10, COUNTYFP10, TRACTCE10, and BLKGRPCE10, which produces the entire FIPS code for this geography.NAMELSAD10 = Block Group nameMTFCC10 = MAF/TIGER feature class codeFUNCSTAT10 = Functional statusALAND10 = Land area in square metersAWATER10 = Water area in square metersINTPTLAT10 = Latitude of the centroid (center of this geography)INTPLON10 = Longitude of the centroid (center of this geography)STFID = The entire FIPS code of this geographyCOUNTY_NM = County namePLNG_REGIO = Planning regionSUMLEV = Summary level of census geography (code)STATE = The state FIPS codeCOUNTY = The county FIPS codeTRACT = The tract FIPS codeBLKGRP = The block group FIPS codetotpop10 = Total populationoner_10 = One race populationwhite_or10 = White, one race populationbl_or10 = Black, one race populationaian_or10 = American Indian and Alaska Native, one race populationasia_or10 = Asian, one race populationnhpi_or10 = Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, one race populationsomoth_or1 = Some other, one race populationtwoplusr10 = Two-plus races populationtotpop101 = Total populationhisp_lat10 = Total Hispanic/Latino populationnonhisp10 = Total non-Hispanic/Latino populationnh_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino, one race populationnhw_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino White, one race populationnhbl_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino Black, one race populationnhai_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino American Indian and Alaskan Native, one race populationnhas_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino Asian, one race populationnhhp_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, one race populationnhot_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino Other, one race populationnh_twor10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino, two or more races populationtothu10 = Total housing unitstotoccu_10 = Total occupied housing unitstotvach_10 = Total vacant housing unitsAcresLand = Land area in acresAcresWater = Water area in acresAcresTotal = Total area in acresSq_Miles = Total area in square milesShape.STArea() = Total area in square feetSource: U.S. Census Bureau, Atlanta Regional CommissionDate: 2010For additional information, please visit the Atlanta Regional Commission at www.atlantaregional.com

This is a lookup table containing various data related to cities, townships, unorganized territories (CTUs) and any divisions created by county boundaries splitting them. These are termed Minor Civil Division (MCDs) by the Census Bureau. The table encompases the Twin Cities 7-county metropolitan area. It is intended to be a Council wide master lookup table for these entites. It contains official federal and state unique identifiers for CTUs and MCDs as well as identifiers created and used by other organizations. The table also contains historical MCDs dating back to the 1990s and a few other non-MCD records that are of importance to Met. Council use of this table.

The County CTU Lookup Table relates to the Counties and Cities & Townships, Twin Cities Metropolitan Area dataset here: https://gisdata.mn.gov/dataset/us-mn-state-metc-bdry-metro-counties-and-ctus

NOTES:

- On 5/28/2014 a new field was added to reflect the new community designations defined in the Council's Thrive MSP 2040 regional plan - COMDES2040

- On 3/17/2011 it was discovered that the CTU ID used for the City of Lake St. Croix Beach was incorrect. It was changed from 2394379 to 2395599 to match GNIS.

- On 3/17/2011 it was discovered that the CTU ID used for the City of Lilydale was incorrect. It was changed from 2394457 to 2395708 to match GNIS.

- On 11/9/2010 it was discovered that the CTU ID used for the City of Crystal was incorrect. It was changed from 2393541 to 2393683 to match GNIS.

- Effective April 2008, a change was made in GNIS to match the FIPS place codes to the "civil" feature for each city instead of the "populated place" feature. Both cities and townships are now "civil" features within GNIS. This means that the official GNIS unique ID for every city in Minnesota has changed.

- As of January 1, 2006, the five digit FIPS 55-3 Place codes that were used as unique identifiers in this dataset (CTU_CODE and COCTU_CODE fields) were officially retired by the Federal governement. They are replaced by a set of integer codes from the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS_CODE field). Both codes will be kept in this database, but the GNIS_CODE is considered the official unique identifier from this point forward. The GNIS codes are also slated to become official ANSI codes for these geographic features. While GNIS treats these codes as 6 to 8 digit integer data types, the Census Bureau formats them as 8 digit text fields, right justified with leading zeros included.

- The Census Bureau will continue to create FIPS 55 Place codes for new cities and townships through the 2010 Census. After that, no new FIPS 55 codes will be created. Note that for townships that wholly incorporate into cities, the same FIPS 55 code will be used for the new city. (GNIS creates a new ID for the new city.)

- Cities and townships have also been referred to as ''MCDs'' (a Census term), however this term technically refers to the part of each city or township within a single county. Thus, a few cities in the metro area that are split by county boundaries are actually comprised of two different MCDs. This was part of the impetus for a proposed MN state data standard that uses the ''CTU'' terminology for clarity.

- A variety of civil divisions of the land exist within the United States. In Minnesota, only three types exist - cities, townships and unorganized territories. All three of these exist within the Twin Cities seven county area. The only unorganized territory is Fort Snelling (a large portion of which is occupied by the MSP International Airport).

- Some cities are split between two counties. Only those parts of cities within the 7-county area are included.

- Prior to the 2000 census, the FIPS Place code for the City of Greenwood in Hennepin County was changed from 25928 to 25918. This dataset reflects that change.

The Bureau of the Census has released Census 2000 Summary File 1 (SF1) 100-Percent data. The file includes the following population items: sex, age, race, Hispanic or Latino origin, household relationship, and household and family characteristics. Housing items include occupancy status and tenure (whether the unit is owner or renter occupied). SF1 does not include information on incomes, poverty status, overcrowded housing or age of housing. These topics will be covered in Summary File 3. Data are available for states, counties, county subdivisions, places, census tracts, block groups, and, where applicable, American Indian and Alaskan Native Areas and Hawaiian Home Lands. The SF1 data are available on the Bureau's web site and may be retrieved from American FactFinder as tables, lists, or maps. Users may also download a set of compressed ASCII files for each state via the Bureau's FTP server. There are over 8000 data items available for each geographic area. The full listing of these data items is available here as a downloadable compressed data base file named TABLES.ZIP. The uncompressed is in FoxPro data base file (dbf) format and may be imported to ACCESS, EXCEL, and other software formats. While all of this information is useful, the Office of Community Planning and Development has downloaded selected information for all states and areas and is making this information available on the CPD web pages. The tables and data items selected are those items used in the CDBG and HOME allocation formulas plus topics most pertinent to the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS), the Consolidated Plan, and similar overall economic and community development plans. The information is contained in five compressed (zipped) dbf tables for each state. When uncompressed the tables are ready for use with FoxPro and they can be imported into ACCESS, EXCEL, and other spreadsheet, GIS and database software. The data are at the block group summary level. The first two characters of the file name are the state abbreviation. The next two letters are BG for block group. Each record is labeled with the code and name of the city and county in which it is located so that the data can be summarized to higher-level geography. The last part of the file name describes the contents . The GEO file contains standard Census Bureau geographic identifiers for each block group, such as the metropolitan area code and congressional district code. The only data included in this table is total population and total housing units. POP1 and POP2 contain selected population variables and selected housing items are in the HU file. The MA05 table data is only for use by State CDBG grantees for the reporting of the racial composition of beneficiaries of Area Benefit activities. The complete package for a state consists of the dictionary file named TABLES, and the five data files for the state. The logical record number (LOGRECNO) links the records across tables.

Polygons depict the boundaries of Washington State's incorporated municipalities, as recorded by the Washington State Office of Financial Management. Attributes include city names as provided by the Washington State Office of Financial Management, and Federal Information Processing Standard codes(FIPS) as provided by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The Washington State Office of Financial Management provided FIPS codes for cities incorporated after the National Institute of Standards and Technology's FIPS code publication date. GNIS (Geographic Name Information System) codes provided by the Washington State Department of Revenue have been included for this quarter. The calendar date shown by Time_Period_Of_Content is the date of annexation approval and certification by the Washington State Office of Financial Management.

WARNING: This is a pre-release dataset and its fields names and data structures are subject to change. It should be considered pre-release until the end of 2024. Expected changes:

• Metadata is missing or incomplete for some layers at this time and will be continuously improved.
  
• We expect to update this layer roughly in line with CDTFA at some point, but will increase the update cadence over time as we are able to automate the final pieces of the process.

Purpose

County and incorporated place (city) boundaries along with third party identifiers used to join in external data. Boundaries are from the authoritative source the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA), altered to show the counties as one polygon. This layer displays the city polygons on top of the County polygons so the area isn"t interrupted. The GEOID attribute information is added from the US Census. GEOID is based on merged State and County FIPS codes for the Counties. Abbreviations for Counties and Cities were added from Caltrans Division of Local Assistance (DLA) data. Place Type was populated with information extracted from the Census. Names and IDs from the US Board on Geographic Names (BGN), the authoritative source of place names as published in the Geographic Name Information System (GNIS), are attached as well. Finally, the coastline is used to separate coastal buffers from the land-based portions of jurisdictions. This feature layer is for public use.

Field and Abbreviation Definitions

• COPRI: county number followed by the 3-digit city primary number used in the Board of Equalization"s 6-digit tax rate area numbering system
• Place Name: CDTFA incorporated (city) or county name
• County: CDTFA county name. For counties, this will be the name of the polygon itself. For cities, it is the name of the county the city polygon is within.
• Legal Place Name: Board on Geographic Names authorized nomenclature for area names published in the Geographic Name Information System
• GNIS_ID: The numeric identifier from the Board on Geographic Names that can be used to join these boundaries to other datasets utilizing this identifier.
• GEOID: numeric geographic identifiers from the US Census Bureau Place Type: Board on Geographic Names authorized nomenclature for boundary type published in the Geographic Name Information System
• Place Abbr: CalTrans Division of Local Assistance abbreviations of incorporated area names
• CNTY Abbr: CalTrans Division of Local Assistance abbreviations of county names
• Area_SqMi: The area of the administrative unit (city or county) in square miles, calculated in EPSG 3310 California Teale Albers.
• COASTAL: Indicates if the polygon is a coastal buffer. Null for land polygons. Additional values include "ocean" and "bay".
• GlobalID: While all of the layers we provide in this dataset include a GlobalID field with unique values, we do not recommend you make any use of it. The GlobalID field exists to support offline sync, but is not persistent, so data keyed to it will be orphaned at our next update. Use one of the other persistent identifiers, such as GNIS_ID or GEOID instead.

Accuracy

CDTFA"s source data notes the following about accuracy:

City boundary changes and county boundary line adjustments filed with the Board of Equalization per Government Code 54900. This GIS layer contains the boundaries of the unincorporated county and incorporated cities within the state of California. The initial dataset was created in March of 2015 and was based on the State Board of Equalization tax rate area boundaries. As of April 1, 2024, the maintenance of this dataset is provided by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration for the purpose of determining sales and use tax rates. The boundaries are continuously being revised to align with aerial imagery when areas of conflict are discovered between the original boundary provided by the California State Board of Equalization and the boundary made publicly available by local, state, and federal government. Some differences may occur between actual recorded boundaries and the boundaries used for sales and use tax purposes. The boundaries in this map are representations of taxing jurisdictions for the purpose of determining sales and use tax rates and should not be used to determine precise city or county boundary line locations. COUNTY = county name; CITY = city name or unincorporated

Counties are primary legal divisions of states. In California, the Census Bureau cooperatively delineate these census areas for statistical purposes. Each county has a 3-character FIPS code that is unique within a state, and an 8-character ANSI code. The FIPS code for the state of California is 06. The FIPS codes for the SCAG counties are the following: Imperial = 025; Los Angeles = 036; Orange =059; Riverside = 65; San Bernardino = 071; and Ventura = 111. The county layer data was downloaded from the US Census and projected and extracted for the SCAG region. In addition, it was clipped for cartographic purposes. SCAG REGION 2020 CENSUS GEOGRAPHIES provides more detailed information on the layer and coding system like CLASSFP and FUNCSTAT codes and their descriptions.FIPS Class Codes (CLASSFP)H1: Identifies an active county or statistically equivalent entity that does not qualify under subclass C7 or H6.H4: Identifies a legally defined inactive or nonfunctioning county or statistically equivalent entity that does not qualify under subclass H6.H5: Identifies census areas in Alaska, a statistical county equivalent entity.H6: Identifies a county or statistically equivalent entity that is coextensive in area or governmentally consolidated with an incorporated place, part of an incorporated place, or a consolidated city.C7: Identifies an incorporated place that is an independent of any county.Functional Status Codes (FUNCSTAT)A: Identifies an active government providing primary general-purpose functions.B: Identifies an active government that is partially consolidated with another government but with separate officials providing primary general-purpose functions.C: Identifies an active government consolidated with another government with a single set of officials.F: Identifies a fictitious entity created to fill the Census Bureau's geographic hierarchy.G: Identifies an active government that is subordinate to another unit of government.N: Identifies a nonfunctioning legal entity.S: Identifies a statistical entity

This layer was developed by the Research & Analytics Division of the Atlanta Regional Commission using U.S. Census Bureau TIGER/Line files. The polygon features in Census_2010_Blocks_GA are subsets of Census_Blockgroups and Census_Tracts.Attributes:STATEFP10 = The Federal Information Processing Series (FIPS) state code. FIPS codes were formerly known as Federal Information Processing Standards codes, until the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) announced its decision in 2005 to remove geographic entity codes from its oversight. The Census Bureau continues to maintain and issue codes for geographic entities covered under FIPS oversight, albeit with a revised meaning for the FIPS acronym. Geographic entities covered under FIPS include states, counties, congressional districts, core based statistical areas, places, county subdivisions, subminor civil divisions, consolidated cities, and all types of American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian areas. FIPS codes are assigned alphabetically according to the name of the geographic entity and may change to maintain alphabetic sort when new entities are created or names change. FIPS codes for specific geographic entity types are usually unique within the next highest level of geographic entity with which a nesting relationship exists. For example, FIPS state, congressional district, and core based statistical area codes are unique within nation; FIPS county, place, county subdivision, and subminor civil division codes are unique within state. The codes for American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian areas also are unique within state; those areas in multiple states will have different codes for each state.COUNTYFP10 = The Federal Information Processing Series (FIPS) county code. TRACTCE10 = Census Tract Codes and Numbers—Census tracts are identified by an up to four-digit integer number and may have an optional two-digit suffix; for example 1457.02 or 23. The census tract codes consist of six digits with an implied decimal between the fourth and fifth digit corresponding to the basic census tract number but with leading zeroes and trailing zeroes for census tracts without a suffix. The tract number examples above would have codes of 145702 and 002300, respectively.BLOCKCE10 = Census block number - Census blocks are numbered uniquely with a four-digit census block number from 0000 to 9999 within census tract, which nest within state and county. The first digit of the census block number identifies the block group. Block numbers beginning with a zero (in Block Group 0) are only associated with water-only areas.GEOID10 = A concatenation of STATEFP10, COUNTYFP10, TRACTCE10, and BLOCKCE10, which produces the entire FIPS code for this geography.NAME10 = Block nameMTFCC10 = MAF/TIGER feature class codeUR10 = Census urban/rural indicatorUACE10 = Census urbanized area codesFUNCSTAT10 = Functional statusALAND10 = Land area in square metersAWATER10 = Water area in square metersINTPTLAT10 = Latitude of the centroid (center of this geography)INTPLON10 = Longitude of the centroid (center of this geography)STFID = The entire FIPS code of this geographyCOUNTY_NM = County namePLNG_REGIO = Planning regionSUMLEV = Summary level of census geography (code)NAME = Block namePLACE = Census place codeSTATE = The state FIPS codeCOUNTY = The county FIPS codeTRACT = The tract FIPS codeBLOCK = The block FIPS codetotpop10 = Total populationoner_10 = One race populationwhite_or10 = White, one race populationbl_or10 = Black, one race populationaian_or10 = American Indian and Alaska Native, one race populationasia_or10 = Asian, one race populationnhpi_or10 = Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, one race populationsomoth_or1 = Some other, one race populationtwoplusr10 = Two-plus races populationtotpop101 = Total populationhisp_lat10 = Total Hispanic/Latino populationnonhisp10 = Total non-Hispanic/Latino populationnh_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino, one race populationnhw_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino White, one race populationnhbl_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino Black, one race populationnhai_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino American Indian and Alaskan Native, one race populationnhas_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino Asian, one race populationnhhp_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, one race populationnhot_or10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino Other, one race populationnh_twor10 = Non-Hispanic/Latino, two or more races populationtothu10 = Total housing unitstotoccu_10 = Total occupied housing unitstotvach_10 = Total vacant housing unitsAcresLand = Land area in acresAcresWater = Water area in acresAcresTotal = Total area in acresSqMiLand = Land area in square milesDensPPSqMi = Density: Population per square mile of landShape.STArea() = Total area in square feetSource: U.S. Census Bureau, Atlanta Regional CommissionDate: 2010For additional information, please visit the Atlanta Regional Commission at www.atlantaregional.com
