Resource Abstract:
- description: After each decennial census, the Census Bureau delineates Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMAs) for the tabulation
and dissemination of decennial census Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) data, American Community Survey (ACS) PUMS data,
and ACS period estimates. Nesting within states, or equivalent entities, PUMAs cover the entirety of the United States, Puerto
Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. PUMA delineations are subject to population, building block geography, geographic
nesting, and contiguity criteria. Each PUMA is identified by a 5-character numeric census code that may contain leading zeros
and a descriptive name.; abstract: After each decennial census, the Census Bureau delineates Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMAs)
