Description: County and City Extra, Special Historical Edition brings together data from the earliest days of our nation through 2010. For more than 20 years, the County and City Extra series has provided annual up-to-date statistical information for every state, county, metropolitan area, and congressional district, as well as all cities with populations of 25,000 or more. Part A provides an overview with selected national data for all available years from the Census Bureau, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and the Bureau of Economic Analysis; Part B includes a similar selection of data for the 50 states and the District of Columbia; Part C shows the population of each county from the date of its origins through the 2010 census. Detailed information about the origins of all states and counties is included; Part D presents the largest cities for each of the 23 censuses between 1790 and 2010, as well as a table showing the historical populations of all cities with populations of 100,000 or more in 2010. In addition to Parts A, B, C, and D, a section titled "The United States through the Decades" is included highlighting important events in the United States in each decade from 1790 to 2010. This edition also includes several figures on topics such as population growth through the decades, foreign-born residents, fastest-growing counties from 1790 to 2010, life expectancy through the years, and per capita income.
