2020 CENSUS URBANIZED AREAS<\/span><\/p>

The Census Bureau\u2019s urban-rural classification is a delineation of geographic areas, identifying both individual urban areas and the rural area of the nation.<\/span><\/p>

The Census Bureau\u2019s urban areas represent densely developed territory, and encompass residential, commercial, and other non-residential urban land uses.<\/span><\/p>

The Census Bureau delineates urban areas after each decennial census by applying specified criteria to decennial census and other data.<\/span><\/p>

Rural encompasses all population, housing, and territory not included within an urban area.<\/span><\/p>

For the 2020 Census, an urban area will comprise a densely settled core of census blocks that meet minimum housing unit density and/or population density requirements.<\/span><\/p>

This includes adjacent territory containing non-residential urban land uses.<\/span><\/p>

To qualify as an urban area, the territory identified according to criteria must encompass at least 2,000 housing units or have a population of at least 5,000.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>", "extent":[[3468667.5131774563,3989934.8742885673],[528904.5100101178,883505.2044545623]], "url":"https://maps.stpgov.org/server/rest/services/Referenced_Layers/Census_2020_Urbanized_Area/MapServer" }
