Not necessarily. The CDFI Fund uses the CDFI Information Mapping System v.4 for determining the eligibility of census tracts for its various programs, including the NMTC program. Classification of a location as metro or non-metro is based on whether a census tract is located within a particular metropolitan statistical area. It’s possible, especially in populous states like California, that a health center classified as rural under HRSA might not be rural for purposes of attracting NMTC allocation.
