Edit: To show entirety of Kingsport-Bristol-Bristol TN-VA UCC.

These are the "final" delineations of Urban County Clusters, using the 25K/40% threshold, where the urbanized area population of a county must be 25,000+ or 40% of the total population.

There is one UCC per metropolitan area.  The information in the following tables only contains the UCC and population within each state,  For each UCC, its population (in thousands) as well as the number of counties is shown.  For each county, the population contained within each urbanized area is shown, along with the total population of the county, the total population in urbanized areas within the county, and the percentage of population contained in urbanized areas within the county.

Wondering where the 3,000 in Nassau County not classified as urban are located?  Greenvale and the area around CW Post perhaps?

Some areas of the North Shore to the west of Oyster Bay, including Mill Neck.  Jones Beach Island (although I don't think anyone lives on the Nassau County part of the island).  And some swampland in Lawrence - though, again, I'm not sure anyone lives there.

The areas outside the urbanized area are along the north shore, along the Nassau-Suffolk line, and westward, and along the south shore, but that might not be inhabited.

An area wtih 5-acre estates and 3 persons per residence would not qualify as "urban".

Good tabulating.  (Lots of time on your hands?)  In most cases I understand the numbers.  This is because the number in the parenthesis match the second number outside it.  For example,

ANCHORAGE, AK 292 (1): Anchorage Municipality (Anchorage, AK 251)  292  251  86%.

Anchorage has one county in the ACC, 251000 county residents live in the UCC, and the county has 292000 total.

But in some cases the numbers do not match.  For example,

LANCASTER, PA 519 (1): Lancaster County (Lancaster, PA 397; Philadelphia, PA--NJ--DE--MD 5)  519  402  77%.

Reading your explanation of the table, I think these numbers should match.  Am I missing something?

Anchorage has only one UCC in its county equivalent, Anchorage Muncipality, and the Anchorage UCC lies solely within Anchorage municipality, but not all residents of Anchorage Municipality are in the UCC.  This is largely because the joint Air Force/Army base in the municipality cuts the city's UCC off from the northern part of the municipality.  The northern part of the municipality includes the suburb of Eagle River.  Similarly, the municipality is large enough to include the relatively smaller ski community of Girdwood in the south, which isn't part of the UCC because it is separated by miles of state park/national forest from the Anchorage Bowl.  (In fact, Girdwood doesn't even get police services from the Anchorage police department).

In your second example, Lancaster County has areas in 2 UCCs - the Lancaster UCC near Lancaster City, and the Philadelphia UCC.  397,000 people live in the Lancaster UCC.  An additional 5,000 people live in the Philadelphia UCC.  So 402,000 of the county's 519,000 residents live in a UCC, or 77% of the total population.  Parts of rural Amish Country probably separate the Lancaster UCC from the Philadelphia UCC in the county.

Reading your explanation of the table, I think these numbers should match.  Am I missing something?

An Urban County Cluster is made up of whole counties. So the Anchorage UCC consists of the Anchorage Municipality (a county equivalent in Alaska, which does not have counties).  The Lancaster, PA UCC consists of Lancaster County, which has a population of 519K.

What qualifies a county to be a member of a UCC?

(1) It must be part of a metropolitan statistical area (within a state)
(2) It is characterized as being predominately urban.

The characterization which we (muon2 and myself) have used is based on the population within the urbanized areas within the county. In the case of Lancaster County, this includes 397K in the Lancaster Urbanized Area, and 5K in the Philadelphia Urbanized Area, for a total of 402K in urbanized areas (the total and percentages were based on actual values, then rounded).

402K/519K = 77%.

Lancaster County qualifies as part of an Urban County Cluster based on 77% being greater than 25%, and 402K being greater than 25K.

I don't know whether you have been following the redistricting discussion mostly between Muon2, Torie, and myself, but a goal is to have congressional districts constructed primarily from counties, and to have objective criteria for comparing different plans.

A problem with using counties is that you can end up splitting up a multi-county metropolitan area. For example in the Philadelphia area, you could have districts shooting outward from Chester, Montgomery, and Bucks, and perhaps having the Philadelphia area dominating 8 or 9 districts, rather than the (almost) 6 districts warranted by its population.

An Urban County Cluster is a group of counties that should be kept together in a district (or multiple districts). The lists and maps above are a proof of concept that an objective criteria could be applied on a national basis and produce reasonable results. The Census Bureau produces files of urban areas by county, so it is computationally straightforward with a spreadsheet to produce the lists above.

The characterization which we (muon2 and myself) have used is based on the population within the urbanized areas within the county. In the case of Lancaster County, this includes 397K in the Lancaster Urbanized Area, and 5K in the Philadelphia Urbanized Area, for a total of 402K in urbanized areas (the total and percentages were based on actual values, then rounded).


makes sense.  Thank you.


I don't know whether you have been following the redistricting discussion mostly between Muon2, Torie, and myself, but a goal is to have congressional districts constructed primarily from counties, and to have objective criteria for comparing different plans.


also makes sense, but good luck getting that through the PA legislature.  Here's a map for a typical congressional district:



pretty creative, don't you think?  (The area labeled Salisbury Heights is probably where the 5000 people live who are not in the Lancaster MSA but in the Philadelphia MSA.)

In 2014 the Pubs in the OH legislature realized they may not hold the legislative trifecta indefinitely. They put together a bipartisan compromise that didn't help them keep their 2010 gains, but insured that the reverse couldn't happen. It passed as a constitutional amendment in 2015.

OH didn't have all the fine details of our system, but they headed in some of the right direction. The question is whether PA will also recognize that missing the Gov and Supremes, it won't necessarily be enough to have the legislature. When they realize that, they too may go for an amendment.

Pennsylvania has a requirement in the state constitution to not split political subdivisions. In Pennsylvania this is a particular challenge since the subdivisions don't necessarily nest, and there are odd collections of units such as boroughs.

Nonetheless, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court overturned the legislature's plan.

If a more relaxed standard of population equality were used it would be easier to apportion Pennsylvania.

You could put 6 districts in the Philadelphia UCC.
Put Lancaster and Lebanon together.
Base a district in Harrisburg.
Go west from York.
One district in the Lehigh Valley.
One district based on Scranton-Wilkes-Barre area.
Three districts in southwestern Pennsylvania.

Divide the remainder of the state into 4 districts that would draw themselves.

How would this look in New England if the same formula was applied at the Town level instead of at the County level? Please include a list of Towns impacted by the 25k/40% rule.

The Urban Areas based on the 2020 Census have been "released"

Urban and Rural

"released" is in quotes because I am not sure how complete the release is. In particular it appears that the only way to get county populations is from data at the census block level which has been coded with the 2020 urban area. Census blocks are also coded with their county (the county ID is also part of the census block ID since nesting is:

state - county - census tract - block group - block

Relationship files scheduled to be released in "late February 2023" may provide that data.

There is a USA map of urban areas.


2020 Census Urban Areas Wall Map (PDF)


I have not compared 2020 to 2010, other than to note that the 2020 definition permits discontinuous urban areas, so while blobs may follow highways, they don't have to have connecting blocks, so the areas may be less spidery (hard to tell from a USA map).

2020 areas are based on housing density rather than population density. This appears to have resulted in recognition of seasonal areas in Colorado, and maybe in northern LP of Michigan and maybe in the Adirondacks.

A particular problem in New England is the blob that is Boston. You might be able to better define the eastern limit of the two western districts.

Any chance of updated definitions based on newly released classifications and data?

Any chance of updated definitions based on newly released classifications and data?
After the 2010 Census, the Census Bureau produced a file which had the population for each urban area-county intersection. These are used to determine whether a county within a metropolitan statistical area is part of a UCC. They have not produced such a file for 2020.

The census block file has a field for each block with the urban areas, if any for the block, as well as the population and the county. Thus we can calculate the population of each urban area-county intersection, or (rural)-county intersection. This is straightforward but tedious.

In 2010, urban areas with a population of 50,000 were classified as "urbanized areas", those with less than 50,000 population were classified as "urban clusters". For 2020 this distinction has been eliminated. But for the purposes of delineating UCC we can use the 50,000 population threshold. The OMB/Census Bureau continues to use the 50,000 threshold when distinguishing between Metropolitan Statistical Areas and Micropolitan Statistical Areas.

Counties are included in the UCC for their Metropolitan Statistical Area if:

(a) the population in urbanized areas (urban areas > 50,000 is greater than 25,000;
(b) 40% or more of the population is in urbanized areas (urban areas > 50,000)

This distinguishes counties that are dominated by dense urban settlement from those that are included in metropolitan areas based on commuting. Economically, these more remote counties may be tied to the urban core, but they look more like the small town and rural areas.

The OMB has just release its new Core Based Statistical Area (CBSA) delineations based on the 2020 Census, and particular the new urban area delineations. I am in the process of producing a map of the Metropolitan Statistical Areas (the OMB released a PDF file, which I am parsing).

Once I do that I may try to delineate UCC's for a single state (likely Texas).

Eagle Pass is now a metropolitan statistical area, and thus will form a UCC (undoubtedly Maverick County).
