This layer contains populated areas in the US. This polygon file is intended for medium to large scale thematic mapping and analysis.
The spatial data were obtained from the US Census Bureau and are current as of 2010. The populated place boundaries for every state were downloaded from the Census Bureau website and merged together to create one nationwide layer. Population information from the Census DP1 table was joined to the nationwide populated places layer. The attributes were modified to include name, FIPS code, identification information, label, area, and population. The coordinate system of this data is WGS 1984.
