Census-designated place

<h2 id="history">History</h2>
The Census Bureau reported data for some unincorporated places as early as the <a href="/facts/1790_United_States_census/yDzhBK5c">first census in 1790</a> (for example, <a href="/facts/Louisville%2c_Kentucky/n2aJVoJv">Louisville, Kentucky</a>, which was not legally incorporated in Kentucky until 1828), though usage continued to develop through the <a href="/facts/1890_United_States_census/RWFwbtDd">1890 census</a>, in which the census mixed unincorporated places with incorporated places in its products with "town" or "village" as its label.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10">10</a> This made it confusing to determine which of the "towns" were or were not incorporated.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11">11</a>
The <a href="/facts/1900_United_States_census/P5KTGX4m">1900</a> through <a href="/facts/1930_United_States_census/3WmH6q6D">1930 censuses</a> did not report data for unincorporated places.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12">12</a>
For the <a href="/facts/1940_United_States_census/CgDsD5ud">1940 census</a>, the Census Bureau compiled a separate report of unofficial, unincorporated communities of 500 or more people.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13">13</a> The Census Bureau officially defined this category as "unincorporated places" in the <a href="/facts/1950_United_States_census/4dUrAXAY">1950 census</a> and used that term through the 1970 census.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14">14</a> For the 1950 census, these types of places were identified only outside "<a href="/facts/List_of_United_States_urban_areas/hSS3KvcX">urbanized areas</a>".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15">15</a> In <a href="/facts/1960_United_States_census/W9P7TDzt">1960</a>, the Census Bureau also identified unincorporated places inside urbanized areas (except in <a href="/facts/New_England/ufw2BmSl">New England</a>, whose political geography is based on the <a href="/facts/New_England_town/K0K2VnYm">New England town</a>, and is distinctly different from other areas of the U.S.), but with a population of at least 10,000.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16">16</a> For the <a href="/facts/1970_United_States_census/r1LsT35a">1970 census</a>, the population threshold for "unincorporated places" in urbanized areas was reduced to 5,000.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:17" href="#fn:17">17</a>
For the <a href="/facts/1980_United_States_census/UjEXH7Ba">1980 census</a>, the designation was changed to "census designated places"<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:18" href="#fn:18">18</a> and the designation was made available for places inside urbanized areas in New England.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19">19</a> For the <a href="/facts/1990_United_States_census/uPN5syw5">1990 census</a>, the population threshold for CDPs in urbanized areas was reduced to 2,500.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:20" href="#fn:20">20</a> From 1950 through 1990, the Census Bureau specified other population requirements for unincorporated places or CDPs in <a href="/facts/Alaska/LlDNr2uR">Alaska</a>, <a href="/facts/Puerto_Rico/jVStMyG4">Puerto Rico</a>, island areas, and <a href="/facts/Indian_reservation/Y52l5YFG">Native American reservations</a>. Minimum population criteria for CDPs were dropped with the <a href="/facts/2000_United_States_census/oFBpAEqK">2000 census</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:21" href="#fn:21">21</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22">22</a>
The Census Bureau's Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP) allows designated participants to review and suggest modifications to the boundaries for CDPs.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:23" href="#fn:23">23</a> The PSAP was to be offered to county and municipal planning agencies during 2008.

<h2 id="effects-of-designation-and-examples">Effects of designation and examples</h2>
The boundaries of such places may be defined in cooperation with local or tribal officials, but are not fixed, and do not affect the status of local government or incorporation; the territories thus defined are strictly statistical entities. CDP boundaries may change from one census to the next to reflect changes in settlement patterns.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:24" href="#fn:24">24</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:25" href="#fn:25">25</a> Further, as statistical entities, the boundaries of the CDP may not correspond with local understanding of the area with the same name. Recognized communities may be divided into two or more CDPs while on the other hand, two or more communities may be combined into one CDP. A CDP may also cover the unincorporated part of a named community, where the rest lies within an incorporated place.
By defining an area as a CDP, that locality then appears in the same category of census data as incorporated places. This distinguishes CDPs from other census classifications, such as <a href="/facts/Minor_civil_division/VEBpXPWR">minor civil divisions</a> (MCDs), which are in a separate category.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:26" href="#fn:26">26</a>
The population and <a href="/facts/Demographics/VktYwWUD">demographics</a> of the CDP are included in the data of county subdivisions containing the CDP. Generally, a CDP shall not be defined within the boundaries of what the Census Bureau regards to be an incorporated city, village or borough.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:27" href="#fn:27">27</a> However, the Census Bureau considers some towns in New England states, <a href="/facts/New_Jersey/pI5k19S7">New Jersey</a> and <a href="/facts/New_York_(state)/mnl67G1G">New York</a> as well as townships in some other states as MCDs, even though they are <a href="/facts/Municipal_corporation/VunELtxx">incorporated municipalities</a> in those states. In such states, CDPs may be defined within such towns or spanning the boundaries of multiple towns.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:28" href="#fn:28">28</a>

<h2 id="purpose-of-designation">Purpose of designation</h2>
There are a number of reasons for the CDP designation:

<ul><li>The area may be more urban than its surroundings, having a concentration of population with a definite residential nucleus, such as <a href="/facts/Whitmore_Lake%2c_Michigan/uydMESax">Whitmore Lake, Michigan</a>; <a href="/facts/Hershey%2c_Pennsylvania/JI9LJb5T">Hershey, Pennsylvania</a>; <a href="/facts/Metairie%2c_Louisiana/0AhWa6M4">Metairie, Louisiana</a>; and <a href="/facts/The_Villages%2c_Florida/AHlqhz28">The Villages, Florida</a> (the latter CDP covering only a portion of the overall community).</li>
<li>A formerly incorporated place may disincorporate or be partly <a href="/facts/Annexation/49c8oCxL">annexed</a> by a neighboring town, but the former town or a part of it may still be reported by the census as a CDP by meeting criteria for a CDP. Examples are the former village of <a href="/facts/Covedale%2c_Cincinnati%2c_Ohio/Cxm7PNaC">Covedale (village in Ohio)</a>, compared with <a href="/facts/Covedale_(CDP)%2c_Ohio/EyJLzkzb">Covedale (CDP), Ohio</a>, or the former village of <a href="/facts/Seneca_Falls_(CDP)%2c_New_York/81dqz7zR">Seneca Falls (CDP), New York</a>, disincorporated in 2011.</li>
<li>The area may contain an easily recognizable institution, usually occupying a large land area, with an identity distinct from the surrounding community. This could apply to some college campuses and large <a href="/facts/Military_base/uzTGn8ul">military bases</a> (or parts of a military base) that are not within the limits of any existing community, such as <a href="/facts/Notre_Dame%2c_Indiana/q83HJ2K0">Notre Dame, Indiana</a>; <a href="/facts/Stanford%2c_California/dWxeuJec">Stanford, California</a> (which houses the <a href="/facts/Stanford_University/JEQeF9z2">Stanford University</a> campus); <a href="/facts/Fort_Campbell_North%2c_Kentucky/QqWfIrjR">Fort Campbell North, Kentucky</a>; and <a href="/facts/Fort_Leonard_Wood%2c_Missouri/Sgn1mLyR">Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:29" href="#fn:29">29</a></li>
<li>In other cases, the boundary of an incorporated place may bisect a recognized community. An example of this is <a href="/facts/Bostonia%2c_California/FQBkw8Hh">Bostonia, California</a>, which straddles the city limits of <a href="/facts/El_Cajon%2c_California/T9I5Sx5B">El Cajon</a>. The <a href="/facts/United_States_Geological_Survey/nVaGtMjl">USGS</a> places the nucleus of Bostonia within El Cajon. The Bostonia CDP covers the greater El Cajon area in unincorporated <a href="/facts/San_Diego_County/xIFTfn92">San Diego County</a> that is generally north of that part of Bostonia within El Cajon.</li>
<li>In some states, a CDP may be defined within an incorporated municipality that (for the purposes of the census) is regarded as a <a href="/facts/Minor_civil_division/VEBpXPWR">minor civil division</a>. For example, all <a href="/facts/New_England_town/K0K2VnYm">towns in New England</a> are incorporated municipalities, but may also include both rural and urban areas. CDPs may be defined to describe urbanized areas within such municipalities, as in the case of <a href="/facts/North_Amherst%2c_Massachusetts/DdpUX0JE">North Amherst, Massachusetts</a>.</li>
<li><a href="/facts/Hawaii/ImxFefeK">Hawaii</a> is the only state that has no incorporated places recognized by the U.S. Census Bureau below the county level. All data for places in Hawaii reported by the census are CDPs.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:30" href="#fn:30">30</a></li>
<li>A few CDPs represent an aggregation of several nearby communities - for example, <a href="/facts/Shorewood%25E2%2580%2593Tower_Hills%25E2%2580%2593Harbert%2c_Michigan/N7U6xcNz">Shorewood–Tower Hills–Harbert, Michigan</a>, or <a href="/facts/Egypt_Lake-Leto%2c_Florida/zeBMlzmn">Egypt Lake-Leto, Florida</a>. However, the Census Bureau discontinued this method for most CDPs during the <a href="/facts/2010_United_States_census/RoYVI17A">2010 census</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:31" href="#fn:31">31</a></li>
<li>In rare cases, a CDP was also defined for the urbanized area surrounding an incorporated municipality, but which is outside the municipal boundaries, for example, <a href="/facts/Greater_Galesburg%2c_Michigan/ggvWa5hu">Greater Galesburg, Michigan</a>, or <a href="/facts/Greater_Upper_Marlboro%2c_Maryland/6sG8NMTG">Greater Upper Marlboro, Maryland</a>. This practice was discontinued in <a href="/facts/2010_United_States_census/RoYVI17A">2010</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:32" href="#fn:32">32</a></li>
<li>In some states, the Census Bureau designates entire minor civil divisions (MCD) with an urban or suburban character as CDPs (for example <a href="/facts/West_Bloomfield_Township%2c_Michigan/R5R8Mwf1">West Bloomfield Township, Michigan</a>, or <a href="/facts/Reading%2c_Massachusetts/SyQLWS8V">Reading, Massachusetts</a>). Such designations are used in states where the MCDs function with strong governmental authority and provide services equivalent to an incorporated municipality (New England, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin). MCDs appear in a separate category in census data from places (i.e., incorporated places and CDPs); however, when MCDs strongly resemble incorporated places, CDPs coterminous with the MCDs are defined so that such places appear in both categories of census data.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:33" href="#fn:33">33</a></li></ul>
