We updated the GISTRANS.PLACES feature in December 2023-January 2024 from the Census Places data in the 2020 Census. These Census Places Points are used as orienting features on our maps and are not a complete set of census data. This data was moved to a Feature in the Enterprise DB in 2025. It is now call CENSUS_PLACES and is a point feature. It should be updated again after the next census in 2030. |
