Footnotes

<1>We use the term 'historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable and we would like to be accurate. If you can provide us with more specific information about Clark, please let us know so that we can make corrections.

<2>Population counts have been provided by the U.S. Census Bureau.

- Return to Citation

<3>Our distances are calculated as a straight-line (or point-to-point) distance between Clark and the indicated community. The distance should be treated as an estimate and not as the driving distance.

- Return to Citation

<4>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.
