INTRODUCTION

Data from the 2010 Census for the United States and Puerto Rico are presented in two printed report series 

and a single report for American Indians and Alaska Natives by tribe:

1. CPH-1, Summary Population and Housing Characteristics

2. CPH-2, Population and Housing Unit Counts

3. CPH-3, Characteristics of American Indians and Alaska Natives by Tribe 

The data from the 2010 Census were derived from a limited number of basic questions asked of the entire 

population and about every housing unit. Appendix D (see Selected Appendixes report at <www.census

.gov/prod/cen2010/cph-2-a.pdf>) presents a facsimile of the questionnaire pages used to collect the data 

included in this report. Note that the “long form” data included in previous censuses are not included in 

the 2010 Census. 

The CPH-1, Summary Population and Housing Characteristics, report series provides data based on age, 

Hispanic or Latino origin, household relationship, race, sex, tenure (owner- or renter-occupied), and 

vacancy characteristics. Land area measurements and population density also are provided. This series is 

similar to the Census 2000 PHC-1 series. 

The CPH-2, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series provides 2010 Census and historical comparisons of the population and housing unit counts. It also provides area measurements and density. The 

user notes section documents geographic changes over the past decade. This series is similar to the 

Census 2000 PHC-3 series. 

In each series, there is one report for each state, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, plus a United 

States summary report. Many tables in the United States summary reports include data for Puerto Rico. 

The CPH-3, Characteristics of American Indians and Alaska Natives by Tribe, report provides population 

and housing information for selected American Indian and Alaska Native tribes. This report is similar to the 

Census 2000 PHC-5 report. This is a single report covering the entire United States. 
I-2 How to Use This Census Report

U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 Census

HOW TO FIND GEOGRAPHIC AREAS AND SUBJECT MATTER DATA

This report includes a table finding guide to assist the user in locating those statistical tables that contain 

the desired data. The table finding guide lists alphabetically, by geographic area, the subjects shown in 

this report. To determine which tables in this report show data for a particular topic, find the subject in the 

left-hand column of the table finding guide and then look across the columns using the headings at the top 

for the desired type of geographic area. Figure I-1 is an example of a table finding guide. 

The table finding guide does not include cross-classification of subject-matter items. Additional information to locate data within specific reports is provided in the headnote at the top of the table finding guide 

and in the footnotes at the bottom of the guide. 

HOW TO USE THE STATISTICAL TABLES

Parts of a Statistical Table

The census data included in printed reports are arranged in tables. Each table includes four major parts: (1) 

heading, (2) boxhead, (3) stub, and (4) data field. A typical census report table is illustrated in Figure I-2.

The heading consists of the table number, title, and headnote. The table number indicates the position of 

the table within the report, while the title is a brief statement indicating the subjects and time reference 

of the data presented in the table. The headnote is enclosed in brackets and is located under the title. It 

contains statements that qualify, explain, or provide information pertaining to the entire table.

SUBJECTS BY TYPE OF GEOGRAPHIC AREA AND TABLE NUMBER

The types of geographic areas covered in this report are shown on the side, and subjects are shown at the top. See CPH-2-A, Population and 

Housing Unit Counts, Selected Appendixes (<www.census.gov/prod/cen2010/cph-2-a.pdf>), for a description of area classifications (Appendix A) 

and for definitions and explanations of subject characteristics (Appendix B).
How to Use This Census Report I-3

U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 Census

The boxhead is under the heading. This portion of the table, which contains the individual column heads 

or captions, describes the data in each vertical column. In the boxhead of many tables, a spanner appears 

across and above two or more column heads or across two or more lower spanners. The purpose of a 

spanner is to classify or qualify items below it or separate the table into identifiable blocks in terms of 

major aspects of the data. 

The stub is located at the left edge of the table. It includes a listing of line or row captions or descriptions. 

At the top of the stub is the stubhead. The stubhead is considered to be an extension of the table title and 

usually shows generic geographic area designations and restrictions.

I-4 How to Use This Census Report

U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 Census

In the stub, several features are used to help the user better understand the contents of the table. Usually, 

a block of data lines is preceded by a sidehead. The sidehead, similar to a spanner, describes and classifies 

the stub entries following it. The use of indentation in a stub indicates the relationship of one data line to 

another. Indented data lines represent subcategories that, in most instances, sum to a total. Occasionally 

in tables, it is desirable to show one or more single-line subcategories that do not sum to the total. 

The data field is that part of the statistical table that contains the data. It extends from the bottom of the 

boxhead to the bottom of the table and from the right of the stub to the right edge of the page. 

Both geographic and subject-matter terms appear in tables. It is important to read the definitions of the 

terms used in the tables because census terms often are defined in special ways that reflect the manner in 

which the questions were asked and the data were tabulated. Definitions of geographic terms are provided 

in Appendix A of CPH-2-A, Population and Housing Unit Counts, Selected Appendixes (<www.census.gov

/prod/cen2010/cph-2-a.pdf>). Census tables often include derived measures such as medians, means, percentages, and ratios. These and other subject-matter terms are defined in Appendix B of the same report. 

Symbols and Geographic Abbreviations

The following symbols are used in the tables and explanations of subjects covered in 2010 Census reports:

• A dash ‘‘–’’ represents zero or a derived measure that rounds to less than 0.1. 

• (X) means not applicable. In the 1990 and earlier decennial census reports, three dots ‘‘. . . ’’ meant not 

applicable. 

• (NA) means not available. 

• The superscript prefix ‘‘r’’ indicates that a Census 2000 count has been revised since the publication 

of the Census 2000 reports as a result of certified Count Question Resolution (CQR) changes (see also 

<www.census.gov/prod/cen2000/notes/errata.pdf>). This symbol appears only in the 2010 Census 

CPH-2, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series. 

• A minus sign ‘‘–’’ preceding a figure denotes decrease. The minus sign appears only in the 2010 Census 

CPH-2, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series. 

The following are examples of geographic abbreviations and terms that may be used in the tables in this 

report:

• A ‘‘(part)’’ next to the name of a geographic area in a hierarchical presentation indicates that the geographic entity is located only partially in the superior geographic entity. For example, a ‘‘(part)’’ next to a 

place name in a county subdivision-place hierarchy indicates that the place is located in more than one 

county subdivision. (Places also may be ‘‘split’’ by county, congressional district, urban/rural, metropolitan area, voting district, and other geographic boundaries, depending on the presentation.) Other geographic entities also can be ‘‘split’’ by a higher-level entity. The exception is a tabulation block, which is 

unique within all geographic entities in census products. 

• ANVSA is Alaska Native village statistical area. 

• ANRC is Alaska Native Regional Corporation. 

• CCD is census county division. 

• CDP is census designated place. 

• CSA is combined statistical area. 

• NECTA is New England city and town area. 

• Metro Area is metropolitan statistical area.

GENERAL NOTES

User Note 1

The user should be aware that there are limitations to many of these data. Please refer to the text provided 

with this report for further explanation of the limitations of the data. The population and other data shown 

for the 2010 Census in this report are as of April 1, 2010; the boundaries used for all geographic entities 

are as of January 1, 2010. All boundaries are intended for Census Bureau statistical data collection and presentation only; their depiction and designation for statistical purposes do not constitute a determination of 

jurisdictional authority or entitlement. Corrections to the 2010 Census data as a result of certified Count 

Question Resolution (CQR) changes are available from the Census Bureau’s Internet site at <www.census

.gov/prod/cen2010/notes/errata.pdf>.

User Note 2

Data comparability for county subdivisions is shown only when the county subdivision contains substantially the same territory as reported for Census 2000 (generally defined as at least 60 percent of the 

previous territory). There is no comparability provided for county subdivisions that have been extensively 

revised. Revised entities are noted by and within county. Changes to a geographic entity can be the result 

of legal change actions, statistical redefinition, correction of previous boundary or drafting errors, or new 

erroneous information.

Incorporated place and census designated place (CDP) comparability is provided for all places that retained 

their name or general area without regard to the amount of territorial change between censuses. Place 

comparability is not shown if the entity is new for the 2010 Census or is the result of a merger that created an entirely new entity, or if a 2010 Census geographic area shares no area with a Census 2000 area 

of the same name. American Indian area (including tribal subdivisions), Alaska Native area, and Hawaiian 

home land comparability follows the same rules as for place comparability.

User Note 3

When applicable, tables show the revised Census 2000 population and/or housing unit counts that 

resulted from the Count Question Resolution (CQR) program. These revised counts are accompanied by a 

prefix “r” symbol in the data tables.

Derived values (e.g., percent distribution, density, or change) that are calculated from Census 2000 population or housing unit counts only account for the aforementioned CQR revisions in certain cases. 

• Calculations include the corrected Census 2000 counts when a table:

o Shows population or housing unit change (or percent change) from 2000 to 2010.

o Shows population or housing unit change (or percent change) from 1990 to 2000, and also shows 

the 2000 population or housing unit count that it is derived from.

o Shows population or housing unit density or percent distribution in 2000, and also shows the 2000 

population or housing unit count that it is derived from.
III-2 User Notes

U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 Census

• Calculations do not include the corrected Census 2000 counts when a table:

o Shows population or housing unit change (or percent change) from 1990 to 2000, but does not 

show the 2000 population or housing unit count that it is derived from.

o Shows population or housing unit density or percent distribution in 2000, but does not show the 

2000 population or housing unit count that it is derived from. 

• When a table shows component parts of a revised 2000 population or housing unit count (e.g., classified by urban/rural or by size of place), the component parts may not sum to the total population 

or housing unit count, because the component parts were not revised during the 2000 CQR program. 

Therefore, any derived values (e.g., percent distribution or number of places by population size) for the 

component parts cannot account for the revised Census 2000 counts either.

CORRECTION NOTES

Anderson township, Perkins County

Anderson township disorganized before January 1, 2010, and should not be shown separately. It should 

be part of Northeast Perkins UT.

Grandview UT, Jones County

Grandview UT should include Morgan township, which disorganized before January 1, 2010. The corrected counts for Grandview UT are 51 population, 26 housing units, a land area of 165,243,256 square

Lower Brule UT, Lyman County

Lower Brule UT should include Block 1011 in Census Tract 972600; the block is incorrectly coded to 

West Lyman UT. The affected area contains 0 population, 0 housing units, a land area of 1,089 square 

meters (rounds to 0.000 square miles), and a water area of 0 square meters. The corrected land area for 

Lower Brule UT is 774,417,579 square meters (299.004 square miles).

Morgan township, Jones County

Morgan township disorganized before January 1, 2010, and should not be shown separately. It should 

be part of Grandview UT.

Northeast Perkins UT township, Perkins County

Northeast Perkins UT should include Anderson township, which disorganized before January 1, 2010. 

The corrected counts for Northeast Perkins UT are 119 population, 119 housing units, a land area of 

789,578,961 square meters (304.858 square miles), and a water area of 26,551,339 square meters 

(10.252 square miles).

Rosebud Reservation and Off-Reservation Trust Land, Gregory, Lyman, Mellette, Todd, and Tripp Counties

The tribal subdivisions defined within the Rosebud Reservation and Off-Reservation Trust Land all have 

boundary errors and should not be used as official 2010 geographies. New corrected versions of the 

tribal subdivisions will be released in the future. The following is the list of affected tribal subdivisions: 

Antelope, Black Pipe, Bull Creek, Butte Creek, Corn Creek, Grass Mountain, He Dog, Horse Creek, Ideal, 

Milk’s Camp, Okreek, Parmelee, Ring Thunder, Rosebud, St. Francis, Soldier Creek, Spring Creek, Swift 

Bear, Two Strike, and Upper Cut Meat Segments.

West Lyman UT, Lyman County

West Lyman UT should not include Block 1011 in Census Tract 972600; this block should be coded to 

Lower Brule UT. This change removes all area in Lower Brule Reservation and Off-Reservation Trust Land 

(2030) from West Lyman UT. The affected area contains 0 population, 0 housing units, a land area of 

1,089 square meters (rounds to 0.000 square miles), and a water area of 0 square meters. The corrected 

land area for West Lyman UT is 1,402,119,639 square meters (541.361 square miles).

U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 Census

HISTORICAL NOTES

The United States acquired almost all of the area of South Dakota from France in 1803 as part of the 

Louisiana Purchase. A small portion in the northeast part of the present-day state was added by a convention signed with Great Britain in 1818. Dakota Territory was organized on March 2, 1861, from unorganized area formerly within Minnesota Territory and part of Nebraska Territory. Dakota Territory included 

all of the present-day states of North Dakota and South Dakota, most of Montana, the northern half of 

Wyoming, and a small part of Nebraska. The territory was reduced in 1863 with the organization of Idaho 

Territory, enlarged in 1864 with the addition of most of the remainder of present-day Wyoming, and again 

reduced with the organization of Wyoming Territory in 1868. In 1882, the state of Nebraska acquired an 

area north of the Keya Paha River and Niobrara River. South Dakota was admitted to the Union simultaneously with North Dakota on November 2, 1889, as the 39th and 40th states, with generally the same 

boundary as the present state.

Census data for the combined area in present-day North Dakota and South Dakota are available in the 

1860 census (and listed in national tables with South Dakota). The 1860 census population is for territory 

reported as unorganized Dakota and territory now in Montana. Although the state had not yet been legally 

established, the 1870 and 1880 populations are for the area of the present state. The population of Dakota 

Territory as legally established was 135,177 in 1880 and 14,181 in 1870.

GEOGRAPHIC NOTES

South Dakota is divided into 66 counties. The 1,339 county subdivisions in the state include 914 governmentally functioning townships. In 39 counties, some or all of the territory is not organized into townships, and the Census Bureau recognizes 105 unorganized territories in those areas. All 311 incorporated 

places are independent of any county subdivision, creating 320 entities that the Census Bureau treats as 

equivalent to county subdivisions. There are 79 CDPs in South Dakota. Incorporated places in the state are 

legally described as cities, towns, and one village. The Census Bureau treats all CDPs as dependent within 

county subdivisions.

GEOGRAPHIC CHANGE NOTES

The Geographic Change Notes listed below document high-level geographic entities—American Indian 

areas, Alaska Native areas, and Hawaiian home lands; counties and their equivalents; county subdivisions; and places—that are different from the information reported in Census 2000. The notes identify 

geographic entities whose name, legal description, and/or boundary have changed, entities that no longer 

exist, newly established entities (both legal and statistical), and changes in geographic relationships, such 

as places that exist in one county and have expanded into or withdrawn from another county (the notes 

do not identify the other county(ies) in which the entity exists; this can be determined from Table 9 of 

this publication), places that have been removed from comparable 2000 county subdivisions, and places 

that have become independent of or dependent within one or more county subdivisions. The changes 

are reported by and within county; counties without changes are not shown in the listing. Changes to 

American Indian areas, Alaska Native areas, and Hawaiian home lands appear after the list of counties; 

areas with no changes are not shown. A few of the reported changes in name, legal status, or legal relationship may be incorrect; if so, the correct version is shown in any Correction Notes section above. Some 

changes are the result of legal actions that took place prior to Census 2000 but were not reported in that 

census.

For the 2010 Census, the notes reflect any boundary change that affects a geographic entity, regardless 

of whether it is the result of legal action, redefinition of a statistical entity, correction of a previous drafting error, or new erroneous information. Between Census 2000 and the 2010 Census, the Census Bureau 

invested in improving the coordinate accuracy of its geographic database. As a result, the geographic 

positions of boundaries may be different between the two censuses even though little or no change actually occurred to the boundaries. In compiling the Geographic Change Notes, the Census Bureau inspected 

the many corrections to determine if a change actually affected significant land area or population. For 
III-4 User Notes

U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 Census

example, the county-level text ‘‘all MCDs [minor civil divisions] revised’’ may reflect a legal redistricting of 

all county subdivisions in the county, a major or minor relocation of county subdivision boundaries due 

to more accurate mapping or more accurate boundary information, or a combination of these that, in one 

way or another, affect every county subdivision in a county. Boundary corrections that resulted in incorporated places gaining or losing territory are shown as annexations or detachments even if no legal action 

occurred between 2000 and 2010. Most places shown with a detachment resulted from such corrections. 

In states whose legal entities rarely undergo a legal boundary change, such as the New England states, 

most of the entities reported to have annexed, detached, exchanged, gained, or lost territory did so as the 

result of mapping changes, not legal actions. The extent and location of the boundary changes affecting 

any particular entity can be determined by comparing the TIGER/Line® Shapefiles, Cartographic Boundary 

Files, or a comparable set of maps for the 2000 and 2010 censuses.

Note: All legal and statistical area boundaries and names are as of January 1, 2010. Where international, state, county, independent city, and/or county subdivision boundaries

coincide, the map shows the boundary symbol for the highest level of these geographic entities. The county and independent city boundaries are always shown. Where a county

subdivision boundary symbol coincides with a place boundary, the map does not show the place boundary symbol. Where American Indian Reservation (Federal), American Indian

Reservation (State), State Designated Tribal Statistical Area, and/or Tribal Designated Statistical Area boundaries coincide with a county subdivision boundary, the map does not

show the county subdivision boundary symbol. Any geographic entity name may include ’(pt)’ if some portion of the entity extends beyond the limits of the map area displayed on

the page, or if multiple discontiguous pieces of the entity have been discretely labeled on the page. A geographic entity name may include ’(pts)’ if many discontiguous pieces

exist for that entity that cannot be discretely labeled. The boundaries shown on this map are for Census Bureau statistical data collection and tabulation purposes only; their

depiction and designation for statistical purposes does not constitute a determination of jurisdictional authority or rights of ownership or entitlement.

1

 A ’ ’ following an American Indian area name indicates that tribal subdivisions are defined for that area. The tribal subdivision boundaries are displayed on the tribal subdivision

map(s) immediately following the geographic areas reference maps. *

Section Locator

2

 A ’°’ following a place name indicates that the place is an independent place or independent city. An independent place is not part of any legal county subdivision and thus

serves as the statistical equivalent of a legal county subdivision. An independent city is not part of any county or legal county subdivision and thus serves as both the statistical

equivalent of a county and a legal county subdivision. The name for the county subdivision is always the same as that of the place and never shown separately on the map.
