RE: [CTPP] Census Bureau 2010 Urban Areas Shapefile Release

by Mike LeBlanc

Hello: I am asking for a clarification and confirmation about the release of the 2010 urban area boundaries. I previously participated in a discussion on this list serve that the urban area boundaries would be released in October of 2012 and that the urban/rural tabulation would be release in the February of 2012. This was the schedule originally released by the Census bureau at the beginning of the 2010 census process. As I understand it now, there has been a change. The urban boundaries will now be release in Spring of 2012. The urban boundaries will not be released as originally planned in October of 2012. This is a significant date for the Lafayette MPO as well as other MPO"s who anticipate changes in their boundaries. Might you clarify and confirm? Thanks Mike LeBlanc, AICP Planning Manager, Special Projects Division Rosa Parks Transportation Center Lafayette Consolidated Government Department of Traffic and Transportation P.O.

RE: [CTPP] Data for vehicle availability by units in structure

by Liang.Long.CTR＠dot.gov

Hi, Yuen Vehicles available by Units in structure is not available in standard ACS products. It's only available in CTPP. You can find this cross tab for counties and places more than 20,000 population in CTPP 2006-2008. CTPP 2006-2008 is available in AASHTO website (http://ctpp.transportation.org/Pages/3yrdas.aspx). All you need is to register and log in. I understand you are more looking for TAZ and Census Tract level data. Unfortunately, CTPP 2006-2010 which will be available in small areas will not be released until early 2013.

We find the table S2504 in 2005-2009 ACS listing these subjects, units in structure and vehicles available separately, but not cross tabulated. Any suggestion would be appreciated?

RE: [CTPP] If you are interested in CB Urban Areas delineation

by Don Cooper

I realize that the specific criteria will be published in the FR. However, do we know whether any non-population-density criteria were included in the final criteria? Other than the airports that were used the last time around.

[CTPP] More on PUMA delineation (Sept 2011 thru Jan 2012)

by Elaine.Murakami＠dot.gov

http://www.census.gov/geo/puma/puma2010.html The Census Bureau just updated their PUMA webpage with LOTS of information, including a link to the State Data Centers. The current plan is that the SDCs will get the PUMA software from the CB (via ftp download) in September, and will have until "early January" to return the files to the Census Bureau Geography Division. The SDCs are encouraged to work with local agencies. They are not required to do so. We hope that State DOTs and MPOs will take the initiative to talk to their SDCs to work on PUMA delineation. As you know PUMAs are now a tabulation geography, particularly important for ACS tabulation. The software is a new module of the MTPS software, so for those of you who just completed TAZ delineation, you will already be familiar with it. By the way, the Census Bureau has received all the files from TAZ participants, and Caliper is completing TAD delineation for some of the areas that delineated TAZs but NOT TADS. TADs will be a nationwide (complete) coverage at the 20,000 population level (with a very very few exceptions). At this point in time, TADs are a "custom geography" for the CTPP program, and not used for standard ACS products. Elaine

RE: [CTPP] RE: If you are interested in CB Urban Areas delineation

by Elaine.Murakami＠dot.gov

There are 2 different things: 1. One is GEOGRAPHY: The list of Urban Areas, including Urbanized Areas (over 50,000 population) is a list of Place names and a population count. In the Fall 2012, the TIGER file will have a boundaries of those areas. 2. One is TABULATION: Urban/Rural update is probably a TABULATION of 2010 Census results. Elaine From: ctpp-news-bounces(a)chrispy.net [mailto:ctpp-news-bounces(a)chrispy.net] On Behalf Of Mike LeBlanc Sent: Thursday, August 04, 2011 11:18 AM To: 'ctpp-news(a)chrispy.net' Subject: [CTPP] RE: If you are interested in CB Urban Areas delineation Hello: The release date of early 2012 for the delineation of rural urban areas is a signficiantly different from the date that I was told in June, 2011. Perhaps someone can comment. Has the date changed or is Urban area delineation different from "Urban/Rural Update"? Let me explain: In June, 2012, I spoke to the general information line (1-800-932-8282) at the Census Bureau about the scheduled release of the urban - rural data set for the 2010 Census. The then project release date was shown on the is October of 2012 as "Urban/Rural Update" found at this location: http://www.census.gov/population/www/cen2010/glance/ There was no anticipated change to the schedule at that time. The schedule as predicated on the attached sheet was being followed. According to the Census Bureau staff, there was no anticipated reason for the schedule to change at this time. Please advise if the timeline has changed or if Urban area delineation is not the Urban/rural update?
