Description and explanations in HTML, PDF and text formats. Profiles in Geographical Information System (GIS) format which contains 2006 community profile data in CSV format and digital boundary basemaps in both '.Mid/Mif' and 'ESRI.shp' formats.

System requirements: Users will be able to view the boundary base maps directly from the CD-ROM (after unzipping), in conjunction with the data and metadata files included on the CD-ROM. The major requirement is that the user can only read these through Geographic Information System software products such as MapInfo and/or PC ArcView.
