TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2014, Series Information for the 2010 Census Urban Area National Shapefile
After each decennial census, the Census Bureau delineates urban areas that represent densely developed territory, encompassing
residential, commercial, and other nonresidential urban land uses. In general, this territory consists of areas of high population density and urban land
use resulting in a representation of the "urban footprint." There are two types of urban areas: urbanized areas (UAs) that contain 50,000 or more people
and urban clusters (UCs) that contain at least 2,500 people, but fewer than 50,000 people (except in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Guam which each contain
urban clusters with populations greater than 50,000). Each urban area is identified by a 5-character numeric census code that may contain leading zeroes.
