The TIGER/Line Files include both incorporated places (legal entities) and census designated places or CDPs (statistical entities). An incorporated place is established to provide governmental functions for a concentration of people as opposed to a minor civil division (MCD), which generally is created to provide services or administer an area without regard, necessarily, to population. Places always nest within a State, but may extend across county and county subdivision boundaries. An incorporated place usually is a city, town, village, or borough, but can have other legal descriptions. CDPs are delineated for the decennial census as the statistical counterparts of incorporated places. CDPs are delineated to provide data for settled concentrations of population that are identifiable by name, but are not legally incorporated under the laws of the State in which they are located. The boundaries for CDPs often are defined in partnership with State, local, and/or tribal officials and usually coincide with visible features or the boundary of an adjacent incorporated place or another legal entity. CDP boundaries often change from one decennial census to the next with changes in the settlement pattern and development; a CDP with the same name as in an earlier census does not necessarily have the same boundary. The only population/housing size requirement for CDPs for the 2010 Census is that they must contain some housing and population. The boundaries of all 2020 Census incorporated places are as of January 1, 2020 as reported through the Census Bureau's Boundary and Annexation Survey (BAS). The boundaries of all 2020 Census CDPs were delineated as part of the Census Bureau's Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP).STATEFP 2 String State FIPS codeCONCTYFP 5 String Consolidated city FIPS codeCONCTYNS 8 String Consolidated city GNIS codeGEOID 7 String Consolidated city identifier; a concatenation of current state FIPS code and consolidated city FIPS codeNAME 100 String Consolidated city nameNAMELSAD 100 String Name and the translated legal/statistical area description for consolidated cityLSAD 2 String Legal/statistical area description code for consolidated cityCLASSFP 2 String FIPS class codeMTFCC 5 String MAF/TIGER Feature Class Code (G4120)FUNCSTAT 1 String Functional statusALAND 14 Number Land areaAWATER 14 Number Water areaINTPTLAT 11 String Latitude of the internal pointINTPTLON 12 String Longitude of the internal poinhttps://www2.census.gov/geo/pdfs/maps-data/data/tiger/tgrshp_rd18/TGRSHPRD18_TechDoc.pdf
