25. Estimates Geography produces MCD level estimates (Illinois, Indiana, kansas, Missouri, Nebraska exceptin New England, where cities and towns are the basic geographic units. http://eire.census.gov/popest/geographic/estimatesgeography.php

vJSLevel = "../" document.writeln(navigation); estimates geography boundary changes codes census ... text menu For what geographic areas does the Census Bureau produce estimates? The Census Bureau produces population estimates for the Nation, the States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, counties and equivalents, incorporated places, minor civil divisions, consolidated cities, census regions and divisions, and metropolitan areas. Census Regions and Divisions Counties (and equivalents) Minor Civil Divisions Legally defined county subdivisions are referred to as minor civil divisions (MCDs.) MCDs are the primary divisions of a county. They comprise both governmentally functioning entities that is, those with elected officials who provide services and raise revenues and nonfunctioning entities that exist primarily for administrative purposes, such as election districts. Twenty-eight states and Puerto Rico have MCDs. However, the MCDs function as general purpose governmental units in all or part of only twenty states. Within these twenty states, PEP produces estimates for all governmentally functioning MCDs and for nonfunctioning MCDs in counties that contain at least one functioning MCD. The legal powers and functions of MCDs vary from state to state. Most of the MCDs in twelve states (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin) serve as general-purpose local governments. In the remaining eight states for which PEP produces MCD level estimates (Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, and South Dakota) the MCDs, for the most part, perform less of a governmental role and are less well known locally, even though they are active governmental units.

Evolution Evolution Publishing c/o Arx Publishing, LLC 10 Canal Street, Suite, 231 Bristol PA 19007-3900 Tel.: (215) 781-8600 Fax: (215) 781-8602 Email: info@arxpub.com Linguistic Geography of the Mainland United States Traditionally, dialectologists have listed three dialect groups in the United States: Northern, Midland, and Southernalthough some scholars prefer a two-way classification of simply Northern and Southern, and one may also find significant difference on the boundaries of each area. The map shown above represents a synthesis of various independent field studies this century. These are in chronological order: the Linguistic Atlas fieldwork begun under the direction of Hans Kurath in the 1930's; the informal but extensive personal observations of Charles Thomas in the 1940's; the DARE fieldwork of the 1960's under Frederic Cassidy; and the Phonological Atlas fieldwork of William Labov during the 1990's. Although it may seem that a great amount of data has been collected over a short time span, the shifts in American dialects this century have been rapid enough to outpace the data collection. What appears to be a well-entrenched dialect marker today such as the Northern Cities Shift, may barely appear in earlier studiesaffecting both classification and mapping. Nevertheless, some basic observations on current American linguistic geography can be made.

Each application is comprised of a similar set of software components: A report-generating web application that accepts standardized parameters (mostly geographic codes) and dynamically generates a profile (a report using HTML) based on those specifications. These reports are sent directly to the web browser. In addition to the demographic data, they include a series of hyperlinks to metadata and related applications. These web applications are all written using the SAS(r) software package. A hierarchal system of menu pages The underlying datasets that provide the data being displayed by the applications.

Hotels in Kansas Abilene Emporia Larned Parsons ... Park City Kansas - Geography Midwestern state occupying the center of the coterminous United States. It is bordered by Missouri (E), Oklahoma (S), Colorado (W), and Nebraska (N). Almost rectangular in shape and mostly part of the Great Plains , Kansas is famous for its seemingly endless fields of ripe golden wheat. The land rises more than 3,000 ft (914 m) from the eastern alluvial prairies of Kansas to its western semiarid high plains, which stretch toward the foothills of the Rocky Mts. The rise is so gradual, however, that it is imperceptible, although the terrains of the east and the west are markedly different. The state is drained by the Kansas and Arkansas rivers, both of which generally run from west to east. Topeka is the capital; other important cities are Wichita (the largest city in the state), Lawrence, and Kansas City (adjoining Kansas City, Mo.). Points of historical interest in Kansas include the boyhood home of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and the Eisenhower Library in Abilene. In Medicine Lodge is the home of Carry Nation, who, at the turn of the century, became convinced of her divine appointment to destroy the saloons; her home there is now a museum. Fort Leavenworth is the site of a large Federal penitentiary.
