NYC Area $MHI by 113th CD
click for larger view
New January 2013. Based on Census 2010 data, 40 of the 113th Congress congressional districts were 100% urban. View/rank/compare/query 2010 urban-rural characteristics for the 113th Congress congressional districts (in session January 2013 to January 2015) using the interactive table in this section. These data are based on the Census 2010 Summary File 1 (SF1) census block level data. The SF1 urban/rural version (released September 2012) was used to compute the urban and rural population for the new 113th congressional district boundaries.

155 of the 113th Congressional Districts were 95% urban or more. More than half of the districts were 86% or more urban. 34 districts were more than 50% rural. The most rural district was 76.5% rural.

"Urban" and "rural" refer to the urban/rural character of the population. The population in urban census blocks is defined as urban for purposes of this section. See more about urban/rural definition and concepts.

See related section http://proximityone.com/cd113_demographics.htm for "richer demographics" based on the American Community Survey 2011 1-year estimates.

Defining Urban and Rural
The population in urban census blocks is defined as urban for purposes of this section. How can the Wyoming population be 65% urban? As an example ... see in table above. There are 16,147 census blocks in Wyoming that are urban and whose land area is approximately 195 square miles with population of 364,993. There are 70,057 census blocks in Wyoming that are rural and whose land area is approximately 96,899 square miles with population of 198,633. The population that is urban (population in urban blocks) is approximately 65% of the state (100*364993/(364993+198633)). All terms and numbers here relate to Census 2010.

Data in this section were developed using the Census 2010 Summary File 1 (SF1) data. The urban/rural vintage SF1 (released September 2012) contains an urban/rural indicator for each of the more than 11 million census blocks. ProximityOne coded each census block record with the 113th Congressional District code. The block level population and housing data were then aggregated into urban and rural population and housing unit counts for each 113th Congressional District.
