Project Description

Summary

The geographic cross-reference files have been created to allow the user to prepare additional data summaries relevant to school districts. Another use for the geographic cross-reference files is to provide the ability to equate detailed record files having school district codes with census geographic units. This capability could be used to relate administrative record summaries with census geographic data. This data collection is a school district georeference file collected during 1969-1970 that has been instrumental in aggregating First Count Summary Data by school district and can be used in interpreting the School District First Count file. This file does not contain data for the State of Maryland. Variables include state, county, minor civil division (MCD), MCD-place, census tract, block group, enumeration district (ED), population of block group, school district code, school district type, percentage of population in school district, place description, congressional district, school district name, grade range, standard metropolitan statistical area (SMSA), and government ID code.
