The Geography Division of the Census Bureau of the U.S. Department of Commerce provides access to downloadable versions in PDF format of the "Geographic Areas Reference Manual," which was originally published in 1994. The manual describes the basic geographic entities the Census Bureau uses in its data tabulations, and documents the procedures used to select and delineate these geographic entities. The Census Bureau highlights major changes in geographic areas for Census 2000.
