Updated from the 2020 census data. <\/span>- Analysis of census data determined tl_2020_450xx_pointslm MTFCC C3081 by county was the closest to our PLACES dataset. We used community equals our <\/span>unincorporated points outside polygons (primarily LMA).<\/span><\/span><\/p>

Municipal<\/span><\/span> for points inside MUNICIPAL_AREAS feature polygon<\/span><\/p>

Unincorporated<\/span><\/span> for points not in Municipal areas<\/span><\/p>

State Capital<\/span><\/span> for one in Richland County<\/span><\/span><\/p>

  • We used TL_2020_450xx_pointlm data (by county) and compared against our GISTRANS.PLACES in ~20 counties and 91% of our places matched with the tl_2020_4500xx_pointlm data. <\/span><\/p><\/li>

  • We determined the MTFCC code for the places was C3081. The other codes were other designations. <\/span><\/span><\/p><\/li>

  • Determined the tl_2020_45_places20 area census file were unincorporated polygons, and used to determine if points were community or unincorporated. <\/span><\/p><\/li><\/ul>
