2010 Census Geographic Entity Tallies by State and Type

The 2010 Census Geographic Entity Tallies chart provides a comprehensive view of the numbers of each type of geographic entity, by state, for which the Census Bureau tabulates decennial census and other statistical data.

How to Read this Table

Information in the table is organized by high-level geographic entity type (for example, American Indian and Alaska Native area, County Subdivisions, Places). High-level categories are then subdivided into additional categories, depending on the amount of variety in the kinds of geographic entities within the category. For example, "Places" is subdivided into "Incorporated Places" and "Census Designated Places." The Incorporated Place category is further subdivided between those that have active governments, inactive governments, and those that do not have governmental functions. Within each of these categories, the chart lists the number of entities by legal status—for example, city, town, village, borough, and so forth.

Please note that the categories and subcategories shown on this chart represent the full range of geographic entity types within the Census Bureau's geographic database. Not all geographic entity types exist in each state.

The national totals on this chart do not necessarily equal the sum of the state totals. Some geographic areas cross state boundaries and so a single geographic area can be counted in more than one state. Therefore, it is expected that the sum of the state totals would be larger than national tally for these columns.
