Return to Geographic variables list

Description

URBPOP gives the population, in hundreds, of places considered "urban" according to the Census Bureau's 1930-1940 definition. All incorporated municipalities with a population of 2,500 or more were defined as urban, but this definition of urban also included some places that were not incorporated municipalities (See URBAN for a discussion of how the Census Bureau's definition changed over time).
