TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2015,  nation, U.S., Current Combined New England City and Town Area (CNECTA) National Shapefile

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) 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 shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data
               set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.

               Combined New England City and Town Areas (CNECTA) are defined by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and consist of two or more adjacent New
               England City and Town Areas (NECTA) that have significant employment interchanges.  The NECTAs that combine to create a CNECTA retain separate identities
               within the larger combined statistical area.  Because CNECTAs represent groupings of NECTAs, they should not be ranked or compared with individual
               NECTAs.  

               The CNECTA boundaries are those defined by OMB based on the 2010 Census and published in 2013.

TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2015,  nation, U.S., Coastline National Shapefile

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) 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 shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.


The Coastline Shapefile includes all features within the MTDB Class "Coastline" distinguished where the MAF/TIGER Feature Classification Code (MTFCC) for the feature in MTDB is L4150. The coastline included in this shapefile was delineated by the Census Bureau in the MAF/TIGER database based on water measurement class for display of statistical information only; its depiction and designation for statistical purposes does not constitute a determination of jurisdictional authority or rights of ownership or entitlement and it is not a legal land description. This shapefile should be used for data presentation purposes only.  It is not the official source for the coastline feature. The name assigned to each Coastline feature is a short form of the name of the large body of water bordered by this Coastline feature.

TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2015,  nation, U.S., Current County and Equivalent National Shapefile

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) 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 shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data
               set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.

               The primary legal divisions of most states are termed counties.  In Louisiana, these divisions are known as parishes.  In Alaska, which has no counties,
               the equivalent entities are the organized boroughs, city and boroughs, municipalities, and for the unorganized area, census areas.  The latter are
               delineated cooperatively for statistical purposes by the State of Alaska and the Census Bureau.  In four states (Maryland, Missouri, Nevada, and
               Virginia), there are one or more incorporated places that are independent of any county organization and thus constitute primary divisions of their
               states.  These incorporated places are known as independent cities and are treated as equivalent entities for purposes of data presentation.  The
               District of Columbia and Guam have no primary divisions, and each area is considered an equivalent entity for purposes of data presentation.  The Census
               Bureau treats the following entities as equivalents of counties for purposes of data presentation: Municipios in Puerto Rico, Districts and Islands in
               American Samoa, Municipalities in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and Islands in the U.S. Virgin Islands.  The entire area of the
               United States, Puerto Rico, and the Island Areas is covered by counties or equivalent entities.  

               The boundaries for counties and equivalent entities are mostly as of January 1, 2013, primarily as reported through the Census Bureau's Boundary and
               Annexation Survey (BAS).  However, some changes made after January 2013, including the addition and deletion of counties, are included.

TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2015,  nation, U.S., Current Tribal Block Group National

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) 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 shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data
               set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.

               A tribal block group is a cluster of census tabulation blocks within a single tribal census tract delineated by American Indian tribal participants or
               the Census Bureau for the purpose of presenting demographic data on their reservation and/or off-reservation trust land.  The tribal block groups are
               defined independently of the standard county-based block group delineation.  For federally recognized American Indian Tribes with reservations and/or
               off-reservation trust lands with a population less than 1,200, a single tribal block group is defined.  Qualifying reservations and/or off-reservation
               trust lands with a population greater than 1,200 could define additional tribal block groups within their area without regard to the standard block group
               configuration.  Tribal block groups do not necessarily contain tabulation blocks always beginning with the same number and could contain seemingly
               duplicate block numbers.  Tabulation block numbers are still assigned by using standard block groups, not the tribal block groups.  To better identify
               tribal block groups, the letter code range A through K (except I, which could be confused with a number 1) is used uniquely within each tribal census
               tract.  

               The boundaries of tribal block groups and tribal census tracts are those delineated through the Tribal Statistical Areas Program (TSAP) for the 2010
               Census.

TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2015,  nation, U.S., Current Tribal Census Tract National Shapefile

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) 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 shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data
               set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.

               A tribal census tract is a relatively permanent statistical subdivision of a federally recognized American Indian reservation and/or off-reservation
               trust land, delineated by the American Indian tribal government and/or the Census Bureau for the purpose of presenting demographic data. For the 2010
               Census, tribal census tracts are defined independently of the standard county-based census tract  delineation. For federally recognized American Indian
               Tribes with reservations and/or off-reservation trust lands with a population less than 2,400, a single tribal census tract is defined. Qualifying areas
               with a population greater than 2,400 could define additional tribal census tracts within their area. The tribal census tract codes for the 2010 Census
               are six characters long with a leading "T" alphabetic character followed by a five-digit numeric code, for example, T01000, which translates as tribal
               census tract 10. Tribal block groups nest within tribal census tracts. Since individual tabulation blocks are defined within the standard
               State-county-census tract geographic hierarchy, a tribal census tract can contain seemingly duplicate block numbers, thus tribal census tracts cannot be
               used to uniquely identify census tabulation blocks for the 2010 Census. 

               The boundaries of tribal census tracts are those delineated through the Tribal Statistical Areas Program (TSAP) for the 2010 Census.

               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.

TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2015, 2010 nation, U.S., 2010 Census 5-Digit ZIP Code Tabulation Area (ZCTA5) National

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) 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 shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data
               set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.

               ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) are approximate area representations of U.S. Postal Service (USPS) ZIP Code service areas that the Census Bureau
               creates to present statistical data for each decennial census. The Census Bureau delineates ZCTA boundaries for the United States, Puerto Rico, American
               Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands once each decade following the decennial census. Data users
               should not use ZCTAs to identify the official USPS ZIP Code for mail delivery. The USPS makes periodic changes to ZIP Codes to support more efficient
               mail delivery.

               The Census Bureau uses tabulation blocks as the basis for defining each ZCTA. Tabulation blocks are assigned to a ZCTA based on the most frequently
               occurring ZIP Code for the addresses contained within that block. The most frequently occurring ZIP Code also becomes the five-digit numeric code of the
               ZCTA. These codes may contain leading zeros.

               Blocks that do not contain addresses but are surrounded by a single ZCTA (enclaves) are assigned to the surrounding ZCTA. Because the Census Bureau only
               uses the most frequently occurring ZIP Code to assign blocks, a ZCTA may not exist for every USPS ZIP Code. Some ZIP Codes may not have a matching ZCTA
               because too few addresses were associated with the specific ZIP Code or the ZIP Code was not the most frequently occurring ZIP Code within any of the
               blocks where it exists. 

               The ZCTA boundaries in this release are those delineated following the 2010 Census.

TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2016,  state, United States Virgin Islands, Current Estate State-based Shapefile (U.S. Virgin Islands only)

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) 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 shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.  Estates are subdivisions of the three major islands in the United States Virgin Islands (USVI). The estates have legally defined boundaries and are much smaller in area than the Census Subdistricts (county subdivisions), but do not necessarily nest within these districts.  The boundaries of the estates are primarily those of the former agricultural plantations that existed at the time Denmark transferred the islands to the United States in 1917.  The names and boundaries of the estates are in common usage by residents and in government administration.  The boundaries of the estates are as of January 1, 2010 and were provided to the Census Bureau by the USVI Office of the Lieutenant Governor.  Estates can be found in the Sub Minor Civil Division (submcd) shapefile for the 2010 and 2011 TIGER/Line products.

2016 Cartographic Boundary File, Current Metropolitan/Micropolitan Statistical Area for United States,1:20,000,000

The 2016 cartographic boundary shapefiles are simplified

               Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing
               (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). These boundary files are specifically designed for
               small-scale thematic mapping. When possible, generalization is performed with the
               intent to maintain the hierarchical relationships among geographies and to maintain
               the alignment of geographies within a file set for a given year. Geographic areas may
               not align with the same areas from another year. Some geographies are available as
               nation-based files while others are available only as state-based files. Metropolitan
               and Micropolitan Statistical Areas are together termed Core Based Statistical Areas
               (CBSAs) and are defined by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and consist of
               the county or counties or equivalent entities associated with at least one urban core
               (urbanized area or urban cluster) of at least 10,000 population, plus adjacent
               counties having a high degree of social and economic integration with the core as
               measured through commuting ties with the counties containing the core. Categories of
               CBSAs are: Metropolitan Statistical Areas, based on urbanized areas of 50,000 or more
               population; and Micropolitan Statistical Areas, based on urban clusters of at least
               10,000 population but less than 50,000 population. The generalized boundaries in this
               file are based on those defined by OMB based on the 2010 Census, published in 2013,
               and updated in 2015.
