Map 2. Frequency of Core Programs and Population
Density, by Minor Civil Divisons (May 16, 2006, v.3a)
Map #2 provides a visual image of the relationship
between core program prevention infrastructure coverage and
population density. This map depicts programs and population density
by minor civil
divisions and thus does not present data at the smallest level
of census measurement. The key depicts the meaning of shapes, color
scheme and lines. Towns and cities are included for geographic
orientation only.

Census blocks: the
smallest geographic area for which the Bureau of the Census collect
and tabulates decennial census data, formed by streets, roads,
railroads, streams and other bodies of water, other visible physical
and cultural features, and the legal boundaries shown on Census
Bureau maps. (retrieved from:

Minor civil divisions: the primary political or administrative divisions of a county. MCDs represent many different kinds of legal entities with a wide variety of governmental and/or administrative functions. MCDs include, among others, American Indian reservations, assessment districts, boroughs, precincts, towns, and townships (retrieved from:
