Footnotes

<1>These population counts have been provided by the US Census Bureau. The population value might come from the 2000 Census or it may be an estimate from a more recent year. Please visit the community's Census page for more details about its population. For more information, please visit the U.S. Census Bureau.
<2>A Housing Unit is a broad term for those places where people live, whether occupied or temporarily vacant, such as a house, an apartment, a mobile home, or an area that is considered as a separate living quarter. Separate living quarters (consisting of one or more rooms) are considered to be those places where people live, sleep and eat separately from others and that have access to the outside (either directly or by a shared hallway).
<3>The value for area has been supplied by the US Census Bureau and it can be different than the geographic boundaries of the community. The value given by the Census Bureau reflects their statistical (or sampling) requirements. For example, if there is a cluster of people living just outside of the community's official boundary, the Census-defined area might be expanded to include that group of people.
<4>Our distances are calculated as a straight-line between two communities. The distance should be treated as an estimate and not as driving distance.
