<2>Our distances are calculated as a straight-line (or point-to-point) distance between Philadelphia and the indicated community. The distance should be treated as an estimate and not as the driving distance.

<3>The communities in our count are those provided by the 2000 Census, so keep in mind that our population rings will only include the people living in those communities. Smaller communities usually don't participate directly in the Census and therefore they won't be included. While our count is a close approximation, it shouldn't be considered as a complete or accurate count.
