Survey Boundaries in Macon-Bibb County

A spatial representation of survey boundaries in Macon-Bibb County. The State of Georgia uses a Non-PLSS survey system. Legal descriptions in Georgia use the County, District, and Land Lot, and then use the metes and bounds or the lot and block, also known as the plat map description. In the 1800's a survey of Georgia divided much of the state into its present grid system of "land lots" and "districts." In addition, portions of the state use special areas known as "sections," "headrights," and "Georgia Militia Districts." The districts are generally square areas of land and do not necessarily correspond with county boundary lines. Each district consists of smaller square grids of land known as land lots which vary in size from as small as 40 acres in the northern portion of the state to as large as 490 acres in the central and southern portions. The 40-acre land lots were purposely made smaller for the gold lotteries in the 1830's. Legal descriptions of property located in those areas of the state so divided must include the land lot number and district number. In some areas of the state legal descriptions may use other land divisions in pinpointing the exact location of the property being described.
US Census Block Groups in Macon-Bibb County

Census Block Groups for Macon-Bibb County. Block Groups (BGs) are statistical divisions of census tracts, are generally defined to contain between 600 and 3,000 people and are used to present data and control block numbering. A block group consists of clusters of blocks within the same census tract that have the same first digit of their four-digit census block number. For example, blocks 3001, 3002, 3003, . . ., 3999 in census tract 1210.02 belong to BG 3 in that census tract. Most BGs were delineated by local participants in the Census Bureau's Participant Statistical Areas Program. The Census Bureau delineated BGs only where a local or tribal government declined to participate, and a regional organization or State Data Center was not available to participate. A BG usually covers a contiguous area. Each census tract contains at least one BG, and BGs are uniquely numbered within the census tract. Within the standard census geographic hierarchy, BGs never cross state, county, or census tract boundaries but may cross the boundaries of any other geographic entity. Tribal census tracts and tribal BGs are separate and unique geographic areas defined within federally recognized American Indian reservations and can cross state and county boundaries (see "[Tribal Census Tract]" and "[Tribal Block Group]"). The tribal census tracts and tribal block groups may be completely different from the census tracts and block groups defined by state and county. Block Group Codes—BGs have a valid code range of 0 through 9. BGs 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. For the 2010 Census, a block group 0 for the water portion can be delineated in any census tract and not just those census tracts also defined to only include water area. This is a change from Census 2000, when block groups coded 0 only existed in census tracts with a code of 0. To differentiate between county-based block groups and tribal block groups, the codes for tribal block groups use an alphabetic character (see "[Tribal Block Group]"). For more information about Census Block Groups or the US Census Bureau visit [https://www.census.gov].
US Congressional Representatives

Us House Congressional Representatives serving Macon-Bibb County. Congressional districts are the 435 areas from which members are elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. After the apportionment of congressional seats among the states, which is based on decennial census population counts, each state with multiple seats is responsible for establishing congressional districts for the purpose of electing representatives. Each congressional district is to be as equal in population to all other congressional districts in a state as practicable. The boundaries and numbers shown for the congressional districts are those specified in the state laws or court orders establishing the districts within each state. Congressional districts for the 108th through 112th sessions were established by the states based on the result of the 2000 Census. Congressional districts for the 113th through 115th sessions were established by the states based on the result of the 2010 Census. Boundaries are effective until January of odd number years (for example, January 2015, January 2017, etc.), unless a state initiative or court ordered redistricting requires a change. All states established new congressional districts in 2011-2012, with the exception of the seven single member states (Alaska, Delaware, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont, and Wyoming). For the states that have more than one representative, the Census Bureau requested a copy of the state laws or applicable court order(s) for each state from each secretary of state and each 2010 Redistricting Data Program state liaison requesting a copy of the state laws and/or applicable court order(s) for each state. Additionally, the states were asked to furnish their newly established congressional district boundaries and numbers by means of geographic equivalency files. States submitted equivalency files since most redistricting was based on whole census blocks. Kentucky was the only state where congressional district boundaries split some of the 2010 Census tabulation blocks. For further information on these blocks, please see the user-note at the bottom of the tables for this state. The Census Bureau entered this information into its geographic database and produced tabulation block equivalency files that depicted the newly defined congressional district boundaries. Each state liaison was furnished with their file and requested to review, submit corrections, and certify the accuracy of the boundaries.
US Senators

Us Senators serving Macon-Bibb County. The two Senators that serve the State of Georgia are [Johnny Isakson] and [David Perdue]. The United States Senate is the [upper chamber] of the [United States Congress], which along with the [United States House of Representatives]—the lower chamber—comprise the [legislature] of the [United States]. The composition and powers of the Senate are established by [Article One of the United States Constitution]. The Senate is composed of senators, each of whom represents a single [state] in its entirety, with each state being equally represented by two senators, regardless of its population, serving [staggered terms of six years]; with fifty states presently in the Union, there are 100 U.S. Senators. From 1789 until 1913, Senators were appointed by legislatures of the states they represented; following the ratification of the [Seventeenth Amendment] in 1913, they are now popularly elected. The [Senate chamber] is located in the north wing of the [Capitol], in [Washington, D.C.] As the upper house, the Senate has several powers of [advice and consent] which are unique to it; these include the [ratification] of [treaties] and the confirmation of [Cabinet secretaries], [Supreme Court justices], [federal judges], [other federal executive officials], [flag officers], regulatory officials, [ambassadors], and other [federal uniformed officers]. In addition to these, in cases wherein no candidate receives a majority of [electors] for [Vice President], the duty befalls upon the Senate to elect one of the top two recipients of electors for that office. It further has the responsibility of conducting trials of those [impeached] by the House. The Senate is widely considered both a more deliberative and more prestigious body than the House of Representatives due to its longer terms, smaller size, and statewide constituencies, which historically led to a more collegial and less [partisan] atmosphere. The presiding officer of the Senate is the [Vice President of the United States], who is President of the Senate. In the Vice President's absence, the [President Pro Tempore], who is customarily the senior member of the party holding a majority of seats, presides over the Senate. In the early 20th century, the practice of majority and minority parties electing [their floor leaders] began, although they are not constitutional officers.

US Census Blocks in Macon-Bibb County

Census Blocks in Macon-Bibb County. A census block is the smallest geographic unit used by the [United States Census Bureau] for tabulation of 100-percent data (data collected from all houses, rather than a sample of houses). The number of blocks in the United States, including Puerto Rico, for the 2010 Census was 11,155,486.[1] Census blocks are grouped into block groups, which are grouped into census tracts. There are on average about 39 blocks per block group. Blocks typically have a four-digit number; the first number indicates which block group the block is in. For example, census block 3019 would be in block group 3. Blocks are typically bounded by streets, roads or creeks. In cities, a census block may correspond to a city block, but in rural areas where there are fewer roads, blocks may be limited by other features. The population of a census block varies greatly. As of the 2010 census, there were 4,871,270 blocks with a reported population of zero,[2] while a block that is entirely occupied by an apartment complex might have several hundred inhabitants. Census blocks covering the entire country were introduced with the 1990 census. Before that, back to the 1940 census, only selected areas were divided into blocks.
