SUBJECT:

Places in the United States over 5,000 population with no banking
office

There are 131 places in the United States with a population of
5,000 or more (1950 Census of Population) which have no banking office.
Broken down by population groups ranging from 5,000 to 20,000 these places
are distributed as follows: places over 20,000, one; 15,000 to 20,000, six;
10,000 to 15,000, fourteen; 5,00C to 10,000, one-hundred and ten.
The one place in the population group of over 20,000 is East
Bakersfield (unincorporated, Kern County, California, situated adjacent to
and less than four miles from the center of Bakersfield). Laws pertaining
to branch banking in the United States indicate that State-wide branch
banking is permitted in California provided that a need for a banking office
is established and specified capital requirements are met. Statutes of
California would permit a Bakersfield bank to establish a branch office at
East Bakersfield.
The six places in the 15,000 to 20,000 population group, all located
less than four miles and adjacent to banking facilities, are as follows:
Alisal (unincorporated, Kern County, California, about one and one-half miles
from Salinas); Brookfield and Calumet City (both in Cook County, Illinois,
about two miles from accessible banking points); East Paterson (Bergen
County, New Jersey, about one and one-half miles from Paterson); and Munhall
and West Mifflin (both in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, within four miles
to accessible banking points--suburbs of Pittsburgh).

411

Since California approves State-wide branch banking it would be
possible for a bank at Salinas or of a neighboring city or town to maintain
a branch at Alisal. Branch banking is prohibited in Illinois; consequently
branch offices could not be established at either Brookfield or Calumet City.
Under the New Jersey statutes, which allow limited branch banking, a bank
may establish and maintain a branch office anywhere in the same county as
that in which it maintains its principal office when the proposed branch
will be established in a municipality where there is no banking institution
or branch. A bank in Paterson or Bergen County could establish a branch in
East Paterson. Regarding Munhall and West Mifflin, the limited branch banking
provisions in Pennsylvania would enable the maintenance of branch offices
in either of these places by a Pittsburgh bank or that of any town or city in
Allegheny County.

110

The 10,000 to 15,000 population category may be broken down as
follows: (a) four places situated adjacent to and less than two miles from
an accessible point—Willow Run, Michigan; North Plainfield, New Jersey;
North Braddock, Pennsylvania, and South Parkersburg, West Virginia; (b) three
places situated adjacent to and at least two miles but less than four miles
from an accessible point—Midway-Hardwick, Georgia; Springfield Place-Lakeview,
Michigan; Grosse ?oint Park, Michigan; (c) four places situated adjacent to
and at least four miles but less than five miles from an accessible point-Amphitheatre, Arizona; Warrington, Florida; Bethel, ennsylvania; BrandonJudson, South Carolina; (d) three places situated eight miles or more and not
adjacent to an accessible point--Newsome Park-Hilton Park, and Riverview,
Virginia; Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan.
The nine places that are found in Arizona, Michigan, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, and South Carolina all fall within the provisions of the
statutes of those states authorizing the establishment of branches at the
places cited above. In the remaining five places branches cannot be
established either because branch banking is prohibited completely in the
State (Florida and West Virginia) or because the places here considered do
not fall within the limited provisions which do permit the establishment
of branches (Georgia and Virginia).

•

The 110 places in the 5,000 to 10,000 population category are
not concentrated in any one particular State. However, the majority of the
110 places are in the States of Illinois, (which prohibits branch banking)
New Jersey, Ohio, and Pennsylvania (which permit branch banking within
limited areas--generally permit establishment of a branch in any place
within the county in which its principal place of business is located). The
places in New Jersey, Ohio, and Pennsylvania in the 5,000 to 10,000 population
class are so located that branches are allowed under the respective statutes
of these States.
Because of the comparatively large number of places in the 5,000
to 10,000 population class, specific mention will be made only of the nine
places that are located more than seven miles to an accessible banking point.
These places are:
(a) Copeland Park, Hampton County and Ferguson Park, Warwick County, Virginia.
Neither place is adjacent to an accessible point and according to the
statutes of Virginia it would not be possible to establish branches.
(b) River Oaks and Haltom City, Tarrant County--suburbs of Fort Worth, Texas.
Neither place is adjacent to an accessible point and branches could
not be established because of the prohibitive branch banking statutes
of the State.
(c) North Atlanta, DeKalb County, directly north of Atlanta.
Limited branch banking provisions would prohibit establishment of
a branch.
(d) Highland, Lake County, Indiana, not adjacent to an accessible point.
Indiana statutes allow establishment of a branch in a city or town
other than that within which the main bank is located only if capital
and surplus requirements are met for establishment of an intra city
branch in a city of over 50,000 inhabitants.

(e) Washington Terrace, Weber County, Utah, not situated adjacent to
an accessible banking point. Utah allows State-wide branch banking,
and it would be possible for a bank in Ogden to establish a branch
office here.
(f) Washington Park, St. Clair, Illinois, adjacent to an accessible point.
Due to prohibitive statutes of the State branch banking is not permitted.

MEMORANDUM

Dr. Warburton
FROM:

Helen Thompson

SUBJECT:

Places in the United States with population from 2,500 to
5,000 with no banking office

Scattered throughout the United States there are 335 places
which have a population ranging from 2,500 to 5,000 (1950 Census of
Population) and which do not maintain a banking office. Of the 335
places 82 are in States which allow State-wide branch banking, 141 in
States that permit branch banking within the limits of a county or
adjacent county, 29 in States which restrict branches to city limits,
2 in States where branches are limited to within a 100 mile radius of
the parent bank, 70 in States where branch banking is prohibited, and
11 in States where there is no legislation regarding branch banking.
(See attached tables.)
Generally the places do not follow any particular pattern of
concentration. However, Pennsylvania has a preponderance of the places,
40, and New Jersey, California and Illinois follow with 34, 23, and 22
places, respectively.
The statutes of Pennsylvania and New Jersey permit a bank to
establish a branch office anywhere in the same county as that in which
it maintains its principal office. All 74 places in both these States
fall within the limits of a county where it would be possible for a bank
to establish a branch office. It would also be possible for the 22 places
in California to be accommodated with a branch since State-wide branch
banking is permitted in California. In Illinois branch banking is prohibited.

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

i PT'TATION OF ALABAMA:

Series PC-8, No. 1

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Alabama on April 1,
1950, was 3,061,743, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 228,782, or
8.1 percent, over the 2,832,961
inhabitants
enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, Alabama
ranked seventeenth in population.
The 1950
population was about 24 times as great as its
opulation in 1820 when Alabama was first enumerated as a State.

"c

According to the new urban definition,
Alabama had 1,340,937 persons living in urban
territory and 1,720,806 persons in rural territory. The urban population comprised 43.8 percent of the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 22 of the 67 counties
in Alabama increased in population.
The most
rapid rate of increase was recorded in Mobile
County, which gained at the rate of 62.8 percent.
The largest numerical increases were
experienced in Jefferson and Mobile Counties,
the most populous counties in the State, which
had increases of 98,998 and 89,131, respectively. The combined gain of these two counties
accounted for more than four-fifths of the population increase of the State.
The counties in
Alabama ranged in size from Coosa with a population of 11,766 to Jefferson with a population
of 558,928.

L

There were 306 places in Alabama incorporated as cities or towns and 27 unincorporated
places of 1,000 inhabitants or more. The 230
incorporated places of fewer than 2,500 inhabitants accounted for 182,344 of the 1,410,553
persons living in incorporated places.
There

were 61,672 persons living in the unincorporated
places, 28,216 of whom were in the 18 places of
fewer than 2,500 inhabitants. The incorporated
places ranged in size from Stroud town with a
population of 79 to Birmingham city with a population of 326,037.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitantsor more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities .of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe. The remaining population is classified
According to the urban definition
as rural.
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
Incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
Even with these rules, however, many
rules.
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 larce and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up,in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated places outside
urban fringes.
All the population residing in
urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places
of 2,500 cr more is classified as urban according
to the 1950 definition. (Cf course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban in their
own right.) Consequently, the special rules of
the old definition are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Alabama consisted of

the following components:
(1) The 1,228,209
inhabitants of the 76 incorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more; (2) the 33,456 inhabitants of the 9 specially delineated unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and
(3) 79,272 persons living in other territory in
the urban-fringe areas of Birmingham, Mobile,
and Montgomery and the Alabama part of the urban
fringe of Columbus, Ga.
Since there were no
places urban under special rule in Alabama
according to the old definition, the population
of the first element comprised the urban population under the old definition. The population
of the remaining elements--112,728--represents
the gain in the urban population of Alabama
which resulted from the change in definition.

The total population of Arizona on April 1,
1959, was 749,587, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Direotor, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 250,326, or
50.1 percent, over the 499,261 persons enumerated

Among the
States and the District of Columbia, Arizona

The 1950
.opulation of Arizona was more than 77 times as
large as its population in 1870 when it was
first separately enumerated in a Federal census.

i

According to the new urban definition,
Arizona had 415,108 persons living in urban territory and 334,479 persons in rural territory.
The urban population amounted to 55.4 peroent of
the population of the State.

fifths of the population increase in the State
was accounted for by Maricopa and Pima Counties,
the largest counties in the State, which had increases of 145,577 and 68,378, respectively.
The counties in Arizona ranged in size from
Mohave with a population of 8,510 to Maricopa
with a population of 331,770.
There were 45 places in Arizona inoorporatedascities and towns and 17 unincorporated
places.
There were 303,462 persons living in
the incorporated places, 30,560 of whom were in
the 23 places with fewer than 2,500 inhabitants.
There were 69,080 persons in the unincorporated
laces, 11,820 of whom were in the 7 places of
000 to 2,500 inhabitants.

population of 548 to Phoenix city with a population of 106,818.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants= more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities
of 50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places
of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
plaoes of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants
or more.
A definition of urban territory restricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an
effort was made to avoid some of the more obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
under special rules.
Even with these rules,
however, many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the

Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated ascities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of

used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group
of incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants
or more.
A definition of urban territory re
stricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorporated
places. Under the old definition, an effort was
made to avoid some of the more obvious ommissions
by the inclusion of the places urban under
special rules. Even with these rules, however
many large and closely built-up places were excluded from the urban territory. To improve the
situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the
Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C..

POPULATION OF CALIFORNIA:

Series P0-8, No. 4

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of California on April 1,
1950, was 10,586,223, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 3,678,836,
or 53.3 percent, over the 6,907,387 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940. Among the States, California
ranked second in population. California led the
other States in both the amount and rate of inAllirease. The 1950 population was almost 28 times
Ws great as the population in 1860 when California was first enumerated as a State.
According to the new urban definition,
California had an urban population of 8,539,420
The urban
and a rural population of 2,046,803.
population comprised 80.7 percent of the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, all but 4 of the 58
counties in California increased in population.
The most rapid rate of increase was experienced
In Contra Costa County, which had nearly three
times as many inhabitants in 1950 as in 1940.
In two other counties--San Mateo and Solano-population more than doubled over the 10-year
period.
The largest numerical increase took
place in Los Angeles County, which had an increase of 1,366,044, or more than one-third of
the increase for the entire State. The counties
In California ranged in size from Alpine with a
population of 241 to Los Angeles with a population of 4,151,687.
There were 305 places in California incorporated as cities or towns and 124 unincorpoated places of 1,000 inhabitants or more. The
5 incorporated places with fewer than 2,500 inhabitants accounted for 138,895 of the 7,191,394

persons living in incorporated places.
Of the
383,281 persons living in unincorporated places,
131,812 were in 81 places of 1,000/ to 2,500 inhabitants. The incorporated places in California
ranged in size from Hornitos town with a population of 126 to Los Angeles city with a population of 1,970,358.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated ascities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural. According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group
of incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants
A definition of urban territory reor more.
stricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an
effort was made to avoid some of the more obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
1 Except in New England, New York, -and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 under special rules.
Even with these rules,
however, many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorporated places outside urban fringes.
All the
population residing in urban-fringe areas and in
unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as urban accordiagto the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or
more are urban in their own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of the old definition
are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of California included the
following components:
(1) The 7,052,499 inhabitants of the 210 incorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more; (2) the 251,469 inhabitants of the 43 specially delineated unin-

corporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more;411,
and (3) the 1,235,452 persons living in other
territory in the urban-fringe areas of Fresno,
Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San
Diego, San Francisco-Qakland, San Jose, and
There was one place in California
Stockton.
that was classified as urban under special rule
according to the old definition--Belvedere township, in Los Angeles County.
The urban popu•
lation under the old definition, therefore,
consisted of the 7,052,499 inhabitants of the
incorporated places of 2,500 or more and the
48,667 inhabitants of Belvedere township.
All
the inhabitants of Belvedere township were classified as urban under the new definition because
the township is included in the urban fringe of
Los Angeles.
The difference between the urban
population of California under the new and old
definitions, therefore, is that under the new
definition a total of 1,440,254 persons were
classified as urban who under the old definition
would have been included tithe rural population.

ranged in size from Ophir town with a population
of 2 to Denver city with a population of 415,786.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of

used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
Even with these rules, however, many
rules.
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin, where
"towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and are not
necessarily densely settled centers like the towns in
other States.

or more and for unincorporated places outside
urban fringes.
All the population residing in
urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places
of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the
Incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban
In their own right.)
Consequently, the special
rules o2 the old definition are no longer
necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
urban population of Colorado consisted of the
following components: (1) The 759,939 inhabitants of the 36 incorporated places of 2,500 in-

habitants or more; (2) the 13,108 inhabitants
the 4 specially delineated unincorporated places
of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and (3) the 58,271
persons living in the urban-fringe areas of
Denver and Pueblo outside of incorporated places
of 2,500 inhabitants or more.
Since there were
no places urban under special rule in Colorado
according to the old definition; the population
of the first element comprised the urban population under the old definition. The population
of the remaining elements--71,379--represents
the gain in the urban population which resulted
from the change in definition.

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION

FOR RELEASE
August 12, 191

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF CONNECTICUT:

Series P0-8, No. 6

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Connecticut on
April 1, 1950, was 2,007,280, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 298,038, Or
17.4 percent, over the 1,79,242 persons enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, Connecticut
ranked tvElnty-eighth in population.
The 1950
population of Connecticut is more than eight
times as large as its population in 1790, when
was enumerated in the first Pederal census.
According to the new urban definitinn,
Connecticut had 1,558,642 persons living in
urban territory and 448,638 persons living in
rural territory. The urban population comprised
77.6 percent of the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, all of the eight
counties in Connecticut increased in population.
The rates of increase ranged from 9.8 percent in
Windham County to 40.3 percent in Tclland County.
The largest numerical increase was experienced
in Hartford County, which had a gain of 89,472.
The counties in Connecticut ranged in size from
Tolland with a population of 44,709 to New Haven
with a population of 545,784.
There were 34 places in Connecticut incorporated as cities and boroughs and 52 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants or more. Of
the 1,153,217 persons living in the incorporated
places, 6,173 were in the six places with fewer
than 2,500 inhabitants.
There were 122,636
persons living in the unincorporated places,
63,946 of whom were in the 39 places with fewer
than 2,500 inhabitants. The incorporated places
ranged in size from 7enwick borough with a population of 16 to Hartford city with a population
of 177,397.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
crises all persons living in (a) places
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as

cities, boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the
densely settled urban fringe, including both
incorporated and unincorporated areas, around
cities of 50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside
any urban fringe.
The remaining population is
According to the urban
classified as rural.
definition used in previous censuses, the urban
population comprised all persons living in incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more
and areas (usually minor civil divisions) classified as urban under special rules relating to
population size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules. Even with these rules, however, many large
and closely built-up places were excluded from
the urban territory. To improve the situation in
the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up,
in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urbanfringe areas around cities of 50,000 or more and
for unincorporated places outside urban fringes.
All the population residing in urban-fringe
areas and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or
more is classified as urban according to the
1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated
places of 2,500 or more are urban in their own
right.) Consequently, the special rules of the
old definition are no longer necessary.
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION
ADVANCE REPORTS

March 2, 1951

Wasnington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF DELAWARE:

Series PC-8, No. 7

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is the second of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each
State. In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued
as final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Delaware on April 1,
1950, was 318,085, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the past 10 years, the population of the State increased by 51,580, or 19.4
percent, over the 266,505 inhabitants enumerated
in 1940.
Among the States and the District of
Columbia, Delaware ranked 47th in population.
The present population of Delaware is more than
five times as large as its population 160 years
ago when it was first enumerated in a Federal
census.

definition for use in the 1950 Census. According
to this definition, the urban population comprises all persons living in (a) places of 2,500
inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, incorporated or unincorporated,
around cities of 50,000 or more; (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside of any urban fringe; and (d) incorporated
towns of 2,500 inhabitants or more except in New
England, New York, and Wisconsin, where "towns"
are simply minor civil divisions of counties.
The remaining population is classified as rural.

According to the new urban definition,
Delaware had an urban population of 199,122 and
a rural population of 118,963.
The urban population comprised 62.6 percent of the total population of the State.

According to the old definition, the urban
population comprised all persons living in incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more
and in areas (usually minor civil divisions)
classified as urban under special rules relating
to population size and density.

0

Between 1940 and 1950, all three counties in Delaware gained population.
New Castle
County, the largest county in the State, led in
both the amount of increase and the rate of
growth.
The smallest county in the State, Kent
County, had the smallest numerical increase
rate of growth.

and

Delaware had a total of 50 incorporated
places ranging in size from Slaughter Beach town
with a population of 85 to Wilmington city with
a population of 110,356.
The population living
in the incorporated places amounted to 56.1 percent of the population of the State. Nine of the
incorporated places in Delaware had 2,500 inhabitants or more and an aggregate population of
147,890.
To permit a more realistic classification
f the population by urban and rural residence,
the Bureau of the Census adopted a new urban

411°


https://fraser.stlouisfed.org
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

In order to apply the new urban definition,
the Bureau of the Census has defined boundaries
for unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants
Only those with a population of 2,500
or more.
or more have been defined as urban.
The Bureau
has also delineated arbitrary boundaries for the
thickly settled fringe around cities of 50,000
or more.
There were no unincorporated places identiin Delaware and no areas urban under
special rule according to the old definition.
The difference in the distribution of the population of Delaware by urban and rural residence
under the new and old definitions, therefore, is
that the new definition classifies as urban
51,232 persons living in the urban fringe of the
fied

Wilmington urbanized area who would have been
included in the rural population under the old
definition.

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

Series PC-8, No. 8

POPULATION OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
APRIL 1, 1950
(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of the District of
Columbia on April 1, 1950, was 802,178, according to final figures released today by
Roy V. Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census,
Department of Commerce.
During the previous
10 years, the population of the District increased by 139,087, or 21.0 percent, over the
663,091 persons enumerated in 1940.
The Disct ranked higher in population than 13 of the
tee

1111

As in all previous censuses since that of
1890, the entire population of the District was
classified as urban.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban territory has been
defined to comprise (a) places of 2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities, boroughs,
towns,' and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, including both incorporated and
unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or
more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe. All
other territory is classified as rural. According to the definition used in previous censuses,
urban territory was designated as all incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and
areas (usually minor civil divisions) classified

towns in other States.

as urban under special rules
lation size and density.

relating to popu-

In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabit nts or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally Large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the'
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places
outside urban fringes.
All the population residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as
urban according to the new definition.
Consequently, the special rules of the old definition
are no longer necessary.
The change in the urban definition had no
effect on the distribution of the population of
the District by urban and rural residence. Since
Washington, D. C., is considered coextensive with
the District, the population of the District Is
classified as urban under both definitions by
virtue of residence in an incorporated place of
2,500 inhabitants or more.

POPULATION OF FLORIDA:

Series PC-8, No. 9

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Florida on April 1,
1950, was 2,771,305, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 873,891, or
46.1 percent, over the 1,897,414 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Florida
ranked twentieth in population.
The 1950 popuation of Florida was about 80 times as large as
its population in 1830, the first year in which
the present area of the State was enumerated in
a Federal census.

4W

According to the new urban definition,
Florida had 1,813,890 persons living in urban
territory and 957,415 in rural territory.
The
urban population comprised 65.5 percent of the
population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 49 of the 67 counties in Florida increased in population.
More
than one-fourth of the population gain for the
State was accounted for by Dade County, which
had an increase of 227,345.
Three counties-Duval, Hillsborough, and Pinellas--accounted for
another fourth of the gain.
The population of
five counties--Bay, Broward, Clay, Monroe, and
Okaloosa--more than doubled over the 10-year
period.
The counties in Florida ranged in size
from Glades with a population of 2,199 to Dade
with a population of 495,084.
There were 305 places in Florida incorporated as cities, towns, or villages and 30 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants or more.
rhere were 1,734,840 persons living in the incorporated places, 167,552 of whom were in the

211 places of fewer than 2,500 inhabitants. Of
the 80,367 persons living in the unincorporated
places, 38,614 were in the 28 places of 1,000
to 2,500 inhabitants.
The incorporated places
ranged in size from two (Mecca and Monte Vista)
which had no population reported in 1950 to Miami
city with a population of 249,276.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
coMprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitantsor more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural. According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban populatior
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.

The population of the

in the urban population of Florida which resulted
from the change in definition.

There were 584 places in Georgia in 1950
incorporated as cities, towns, or villages and
27 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants or
more. The 484 incorporated places of fewer than
2,500 inhabitants accounted for 284,217 of the

2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places

In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF IDAHO:

Series PC-8, No. 1.

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each Stat,.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Idaho on April 1,
1950; was 588,637, according to final figures for
the State released today by Roy V. Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the population of the State increased by 63,674, or
12.1 percent, over the 524,873 inhabitants enumetated in 1940.
Among the States and the District of Columbia, Idaho ranked forty-fourth in
population.
The 1950 population of the State
was 39 times as large as the population of Idaho
Territory in 1870, the first year in which the
Territory was separately enumerated in a Federal
census.

•

According to the new urban definition,
Idaho had 252,549 persons living in urban territory and 336,088 persons in rural territory.
The urban population accounted for 42.9 percent
of the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 22 of the 44 counties
More than
in Idaho increased in population.
three-fifths of the gain for the State was accounted for by Ada, Bannock, and Canyon Counties,
the largest counties in the State. The counties
in Idaho ranged in size from Clark with a population of 918 to Ada witha population of 70,649.
There were 188 places in Idaho incorporated
as cities, towns, or villages and 6 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants or more.
There were 322,139 persons living in the incorporated places, 88,001 of whom were in the 159
The
places of fewer than 2,500 inhabitants.
unincorporated places had a combined population
of 20,797, 2,386 of whom were in the two places
of between 1,000 to 2,500 inhabitants. The incorporated places ranged in size from Eddiville

village with a population of 10 to
with a population of 34,393.

Boise Cit ,

Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1
and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places
outside urban fringes.
All the population residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as
urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of
course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more
are urban in their awn right.)
Consequently,
the special rules of the old definition are no
longer necessary.
As there were no urban-fringe areas in
Idaho, the 1950 urban population of Idaho under
the new definition consisted of the 234,138 in-

•

habitants of the 29 incorporated places
of 2,500
inhabitants or more and the 18,411
inhabitants
of the 4 specially delineated
unincorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more.
Since there
were no places urban under
special rule in
Idaho, the population of the
incorporated places
of 2,500 or more comprised the urban
population
under the old definition.
The effect of the
change in the urban definition, therefo
re, is
that the new definition classifies as
urban the
18,411 inhabitants of the four unincor
porated
places of 2,500 or more who would have been
included in the rural population under
the old
definition.

The total population of Illinois on April 1,
1950, was 8,712,176, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,

residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as
urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of
course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more
are urban in their own right.)
Consequently,
the special rules of the old definition are no
longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Illinois included the
following components: (1) The 6,486,673 inhabitants of the 245 incorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more; (2) the 51,712 inhabitants of the 13 specially

in the urban-fringe areas of Decatur, Peoria,
Rockford, and Springfield and in the Illinois
parts of the urban-fringe areas of Chicago,
Davenport (Iowa)--Rock Island--Moline (Ill.),
and St. Louis, Mo.
Since there were no places
in Illinois classified as urban under special
rule according to the old definition, the population of the first element comprised the urban
population under the old definition.
The population

of the remaining elements--272,598--represents the gain in the urban population of
Illinois which resulted from the change in

POPULATION OF INDIANA:

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Indiana on April 1,
1950, was 3,934,224, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Directors
Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 506,428, or
14.8 percent, over the 3,427,796 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, Indiana
The 1950 popularanked twelfth in population.
tion was almost 27 times as large as its population in 1820 when it was first enumerated as a
State.
According to the new urban definition,
Indiana had 2,357,196 persons living in urban
territory and 1,577,028 persons in rural territory.
The urban population amounted to 59.9
percent of the total population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 74 of the 92 counties in Indiana gained population and 18 lost
population.
Almost one-half of the population
increase in the State' was accounted for by
Marion, Lake, St. Joseph, and Vanderburgh Counties-, four of the most populous counties in the
State.
Clark experienced the greatest rate of
increase, 55.8 percent. The counties of Indiana
ranged in size from Ohio with a population of
4,223 to Marion with a population of 551,777.
In 1950 Indiana had a total of 537 incorporated places and 12 unincorporated places of
The incorporated
1,000 inhabitants or more.
places ranged in size from Shores Acres town with
a,population of 9 to Indianapolis city with a
population of 427,173. There were 2,534,710 persons living in the incorporated places, 317,242
of whom were in the 421 places of fewer than
2,500 inhabitants. Of the 24,979 persons in the

unincorporated places, 14,216 were living in t,,
9 places of 1,000 to 2,500 inhabitants.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census; the urban populatior
comprises all persons living in (a) places c:
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or more
and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabit
ants or more outside any urban fringe.
The re
maining population is classified as rural.
Ac
cording to the urban definition used in previou
censuses, the urban populetion comprised ali
persons living in incorporated Places of 2,500
inhabitants or more and areas (usually mine civil divisions) classified as urban under special rules relating to population size 9-C
density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,5D0 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled
places,
merely because they were notincorrorated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusfon of the pleces urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situa
tion in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated places outside
urban fringes.
All the population residing in
urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated
places
of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according
to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban
in
their own right.) Consequently, the special rules
of the old definition are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Indiana included the
following components: (1) The 2,217,468 inhabitants of the 116 incorporated places of 2,500

or more; (2) the 10,763 inhabitants of the 34,
specially delineated unincorporated places of
2,500 or more; and (3) the 128,965 persons living in other territory included in the urbanfringe areas of Evansville, Terre Haute, Fort
Wayne, Indianapolis, and in the Indiana parts of
the urban-fringe areas of Chicago, Ill.; Louisville, Ky.; and South Bend, Ind.
Since there
were no places urban under special rule in
Indiana according to the old definition, the pop•
ulation of the first element comprised the urban
population under the old definition.
The population of the remaining elements--139,728--represents the gain in the urban population of Indiana
which resulted from the change in definition.

BUREAU OF THE CENSUS

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION

FOR REL6A5E
August 12, 1Jbl

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF IOWA:

Series P0-8, 'No. 14

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for
selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for otter States become available)
The total population of Iowa on April 1,
1950, was 2,621,073, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 82,805, or
3.3 percent, over the 2,538,268 persons enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Iowa ranked
twenty-second in population. The 1950 population
Iowa was more than 13 times as large as its
t
_opulation in 1850, the first year in which it
was enumerated as a State in a Federal census.

I

According to the new urban definition, Iowa
had 1,250,938 persons living in urban territory
and 1,370,135 in rural territory.
The urban
population comprised 47.7 percent of the population of the State.

1

Between 1940 and 1950, 32 of the 99 counties in Iowa increased in population. More than
one-third of the population increase in the
State was accounted for by Polk County. The
most rapid rate of increase was experienced by
Johnson County. The counties in Iowa ranged in
size from Adams with a population of 8,753 to
Polk with a population of 226,010.
There were 934 places incorporated as cities
and towns in Iowa in 1950. There were 1,697,980
persons livingin the incorporated places, 468,547
of whom were in the 841 places under 2,500
inhabitants.
The incorporated places ranged in
size from Donnan town with a population of 36 to
Des Moines city with a population of 177,965
.
The Bureau of the Census did not delineate
any
ncorporated places in the State.

illt
use

Under the urban definition established for
in the 1950 Census, the urban population


https://fraser.stlouisfed.org
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

comprises all persons living In (a) places of
2,500 inhabitantsor more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villa.o;es; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, Including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory.
To improve the 2ituation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the
Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places
outside urban fringes.
All the population residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorpo-

1 Except in New England, New
and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil diviLL 1,5; of counties and
are not necessarily densely settlec .2.?nters like the
towns in other States.

- 2 rated places of 2,500 or more is classified as
urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of
course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more
are urban in their own right.)
Consequently,
the special rules of the old definition are no
longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition,
the urban population of Iowa consisted of the
1,229,433 inhabitants of the 93 incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and the
21,505 persons living outside of incorporated

places of 2,500 inhabitants or more in the urban
fringes of Cedar Rapids, Des Moines, and Watef
loo and the Iowa parts of the urban fringL
of Davenport (Iowa)--Rock Island --Moline (Ill.),
Omaha, Nebr., and Sioux City, Iowa.
As there
were no places urban under special rule in Iowa
according to the old definition, the population
of the first element comprised the urban population according to the old definition.
The
population of the other element--21,505--represents the gain in the urban population which
resulted from the change in definition.

ADVANCE REPORTS
Wasnington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF KANSAS:

Series PC-8, ,k). 15

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Kansas on April 1,
1950, was 1,905,299, accordim, to rinai rigures
for the State released to&Q; by Roy V. Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the population of the State increased by 104,271, or
5.8 percent, over the 1,801,028 inhabitants enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Kansas ranked
thirty-first in population in 1950.
The 1950
population of Kansas was nearly 18 times as
as the population of that part of the
erritory of Kansas comprising the present State
when it was first covered in a Federal census in
1860.

lik

According to the new urban definition,
Kansas had 993,220 persons living in urban ter-.
ritory in 1950 and 912,079 in rural territory.
The urban population constituted 52.1 percent of
the total population of the State. Tne trend in
the urban and rural population can be examined
only on the basis of the old definition.
On
that basis, the urban population gained 149,527,
or 19.8 percent, between 1940 and 1950.
The
rural population, on the other hand, declined by
45,256, or 4.3 percent.
The rural population
has declined in all but one decade of the tiventieth century.
Between 1940 and 1950, 36 of the counties
in Kansas gained population and 69 lost population.
Included in the 38 counties with increases were 12 of the 16 which had gained in
the period 1930 to 1940. The most rapid rate of
growth--138.3 percent--was recorded in Grant
County, whereas the largest numerical increase-78,979--was experienced in Sedgwick County. The
ounties in Kansas range in size from Greeley
ith a population of 2,010 to Sedgwick with a
population of 222,290.

Kansas had 601 incorporated places with a
combined population of 1,206,252 and 2 unincorporated places with a combined population
of 5,082. There were 903,468 persons living in
the 68 incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants

in size from Freeport city with a population of
30 to Wichita city with a population of 168,279.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) toe densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated
and unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000
or more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe.
The remaining population is classified as rural.
According to the urban definition used in pr,
vious censuses, urban population comprised all_
persons living in incorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more and areas (usually minor
civil divisions) classified asurbanunderspecial
rules relating to population size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,503 inhabitants or
more. a definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and are
not necessarily densely settled centers like the towns
in
other States.

- 2 avoid some

of the more obvious omissions by the
of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the
Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated
places

•

According to the new definition, the 1950
urban population of Kansas included (1) the
903,468 inhabitants of the 68 incorporated places
of 2,500 inhabitants or more, (2) the 3,834 inhabitants of Sunflower, an unincorporated place,
and (3) the 85,918 inhabitants of the 9 incorporated places under 2,500 inhabitants and of the

inclusion

outside urban fringes.
All the population residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more in classified as
urban according to the new definition.
(Of
course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more
are also urban in their own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of the old definition
are no longer necessary.

•

unincorporated territory included in the urban
fringes of Topeka and Wichita and those parts of
the urban fringes of Kansas City, Mo., and St.
Joseph, Mo., which are located in Kansas. Since
there were no places urban under special rule in
Kansas in 1940, the first element comprises the
urban population under the old definition.
The
population of the remaining elements--89,752-represents the gain in the urban population
which resulted from the change in definition.

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.

The total population ofKentucky on April 1,
1950, was 2,944,806, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 99,179, or
3.5 percent, over the 2,845,627 inhabitants enuAmong the States, Kentucky
merated in 1940.
ranked nineteenth in population. The 1950 popution of Kentucky was about 40 times as large
as the 1790 population of that part of Virginia
which became the State of Kentucky in 1792.

O

Kentucky has always been a State with the
preponderance of its population living in rural
territory. In 1950, according to the new urban
definition, Kentucky had 1,084,070 persons living
in urban territory and 1,860,736 in rural terriThe urban population comprised 36.8 pertory.
cent of the total population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 42 of the 120
counties in Kentucky increased in population.
The most rapid rate of growth was experienced in
Hardin County, which gained at the rate of 72.8
percent. The largest numerical increase was recorded in Jefferson County, which had a gain of
99,223. The counties in Kentucky ranged in size
from Robertson with a population of 2,881 to
Jefferson with a population of 484,615.
There were 333 places in Kentucky incorporated as cities or towns in 1950 and 37 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants Or more.
There were 1,194,107 persons living in the incorporcted places, 208,368 of whom were in the
places with fewer than 2,500 inhabitants.
the
f
74,352 persons in the unincorporated
65
places, 43,203 were in the 31 places with fewer
than 2,500 inhabitants. The incorporated places

ranged in size from Caseyville town with a populotion of 73 to Louisville city with a population
of 369,129.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban territory has been
defined to comprise (a) places of 2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities, boroughs,
towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, including both incorporated and
unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or
more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe. All
other territory is classified as rural. According to the definition used in previous censuses,
urban territory was designated as all incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and
areas (usually minor civil divisions) classified
as urban under special rules relating to population size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and .densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
Even with these rules, however, many
rules.
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census., the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

•

-2for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated Tlaces outside
urban fringes. All the population residing in
urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places
of 2,500 ormore is classified as urban according
to the new definition. (Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban in their
own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of
the old definition are no longer necessary.

the 31,149 inhabitants of the 6 specially PO
lineeted unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and (3) the 67,182 persons living
in other territory in the Kentucky parts of
the urban-fringe areas of Huntington (W. Va.)-Ashland (Ky.); Cincinnati, Ohio; and Louisville,
Ky. Since there were no places urban under special rule in Kentucky according to the old urban
definition, the first element comprised the urban
population under the old definition.
The population of the remaining elements--98,331--represents the gain in ;he urban population of
Kentucky which resulted from the chanre in
definition.

According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Kentacky consisted of:
(1) The 985,739 inhabitants of the 68 incorporated Places of 2,500 inhabitants or morc; (2)

POPULATION OF LOUISIANA:

Series PC-8, No. 17

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Louisiana on April 1,
1950, was 2,683,516, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 319,636, or
13.5 percent, over the 2,363,880 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Louisiana
The 1950
ranked twenty-first in population.
population was more than 17 times as large as
its population in 1820 when it was first enumer•
ated as a State.
According to the new urban definition,
Louisiana had 1,471,696 persons living in urban

percent of the total population of the State.

unincorporated places, 30,567 were living in the
20 places of 1,000 to 2,500 inhabitants.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban territory has been
defined to comprise (a) places of 2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as citied, boroughs,
towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, including both incorporated and
unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or
more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe. All
other territory is classified as rural. According to the definition used in previous censuses,
urban territory was designated as all incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and
areas (usually minor civil divisions) classified
as urban under special rules relating to population size and density.

Between 1940 and 1950, 34 of the 64 parishes in Louisiana gained population and 30 lost
population. Almost two-thirds of the population
increase in the State was accounted for by

population of 570,445.

places ranged in size from Mound village with a
population of 105 to New Orleans city with a
population of 570,445. There were 1,513,237 persons living in the incorporated places, 149,448
of whom were in the 158 places of fewer than
2,500 inhabitants. Of the 57,015 persons in the

In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special

large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000

specially delineated unincorporated places of
2,500 or more; and (3) the 81,458 persons living
in unincorporated territory included in the
urban-fringe areas of Baton Rouge, New Orleans,
and Shreveport.
Since there were no places urban under special rule in Louisiana according to
the old definition, the population of the first
element comprised the urban population under the
old definition. The population of the remaining
elements--107,907--represents the gain in the
urban population of Louisiana which resulted
from the change in definition.

or more and for unincorporated places outside
urban fringes.
All the population residing in
urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places
of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according
to the new definition. (Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban in their
own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of
the old definition are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Louisiana included the

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is the fourth of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each
State. In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued
as final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Maine on April 1,
1950, was 913,774, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 66,548, or
7.9 percent, over the 847,226 inhabitants enuIn 1950, Maine ranked 35th
merated in 1940.

as its population 160 years ago when it was
first enumerated in a Federal census.

population, with an urban population of 472,000
The urban

population comprised 51.7 percent of the total
population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 14ct the 16 counties
in Maine gained population and 2 lost population. Cumberland, York, and Penobscot Counties,
the counties having the greatest rates of increase, amounting to 15.9, 13.3, and 11.4 percent, respectively, had more than half of their
population in urban territory. The two counties
which lost population, Washington and Hancock,
had declines of 6.8 and 1.0 percent, respectively.
The counties in Maine ranged in size
from Lincoln with a population of 18,004 to
Cumberland with a population of 169,201.
Maine had a total of 21 incorporated and 73
unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants or
more.

were 350,426 persons living in the 21 incorporated places, 119,859 in the 29 unincorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more, and 67,043
in the 44 unincorporated places of 1,000 to
2,500 inhabitants. The population of all places
of 2,500 or more amounted to 470,285, or 51.5
percent of the total population of the State.
For the 1950 Census, urban territory has
been defined to comprise (a) places of 2,500
inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated
and unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000
or more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe.
All other territory is classified as rural.
In order to apply the new definition, the
Bureau of the Census has delineated boundaries
for unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants
or more.
Only those with a population of 2,500
or more have been defined as urban.
The Bureau
has also delineated arbitrary boundaries for the
thickly settled fringe around cities of 50,000
or more.
According to the old definition, urban territory comprised all incorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more and areas (usually
minor civil divisions) classified as urban under
special rules relating to population size. and
density.

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Maine included the following components: (1) The 350,426 inhabitants

corporated places of 2,500 or more which were not
urban under special rule in 1940, and (4) the
1,715 persons living in unincorporated territory

of the 21 incorporated places of 2,500 or more;
24,081 irhabitants of the 5 specially

unincorporated
places of 2,500 or
which were also urban under special rule
according to the old definition; (3) the 95,778

in the urban fringe of Portland.
Since the
first two elements comprise the urban population
under the old urban definition, the aggregate
population of the remaining elements--97,493-represents the net gain in urban
population

inhabitants of the 24 specially delineated unin-

which resulted from the change in definition.

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION

FOR RELEASE
September 19, 1951

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF MARYLAND:

Series PC-8, No. 19

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be ssued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Maryland on April 1,
1950, was 2,343,001, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 521,757, or
28.6 percent, over the 1,821,244 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Maryland
ranked twenty-fourth in population.
The 1950
opulation was more than seven times as large as
s population in 1790 when it was enumerated in
he first Federal census.

•

According to the new urban definition,
Maryland had 1,615,902 persons living in urban
territory and 727,099 in rural territory.
The
urban population accounted for 69.0 percent of
the total population of the State.

inhabitants or more.
rnere were 1,310,869 persons living in the incorporated places, 95,611
of whom were in the 118 places of fewer than
2,500 inhabitants. Of the 28,762 inhabitants of
the unincorporated places, 20,804 were in the 13
places of 1,000 to 2,500 inhabitants.
The incorporated places ranged in size from Highland
Beach town with a population of 5 to Baltimore
city with a population of 949,708.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban territory nes been
defined to comprise (a) places of 2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities, boroughs,
towns,' and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, including both incorporated and
unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or
more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe. All
other territory is classified as rural. According to the definition used in previous censuses,
urban territory was designated as all incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and
areas (usually minor civil divisions) classified
as urban under special rules relating to population size and density.

There are 23 counties and 1 independent
city--Baltimore--in Maryland.
Between 1940 and
1950, 20 of the counties and Baltimore city inThe rates of change for
creased in population.
the counties ranged from a decline of 3.3 percent for Garrett County to an increase of 117.0
percent for Prince Georges County.
The largest
numerical increase was experienced in Baltimore
County, which had a gain of 114,448.
Nearly
three-fourths of the increase in the population
of the State was accounted for by Baltimore,
Prince Georges, and Montgomery Counties and
Baltimore city. The counties in Maryland ranged
in size from Calvert with a population of 12,100
to Baltimore with a population of 270,273.

In both definitions, the most important
component pf the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were notincorporated places.

In 1950 there were 119 places incorporated as cities, towns, and villages in Maryand 15 unincorporated places of 1,000

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas arcund cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated places outside
urban fringes. All the population residing in
urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places
of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the new definition.
(Of course, the
incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban
in their own right.)
Consequently, the special
rules of the old definition are no longer
necessary.

of the 2 specially delineated unincorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and (3) the
392,686 persons living in other territory in the
urban fringe of Baltimore and the Maryland part
of the urban fringe of Washington, D. C.
Under the old definition, there were two
places urban under special rule in Maryland.
These places, district 12 and district 13 in
Baltimore County, had a total population of
59,360. The urban population under the old definition, therefore, consisted of the population
of the 31 incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and the 59,360 inhabitants of district 12 and district 13, a total of 1,274,618.
Under the new definition 56,469 inhabitants
of the two places urban under special rule were
included in the urban population because they
were living in the urban fringe of Baltimore.
The remaining 2,891 inhabitants of these places
were classified as rural.
The net gain in the
urban population of the State resulting from the
change in definition, therefore, was 341,284.

According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Maryland consisted of
the following components: (1) The 1,215,258 inhabitants of the 31 incorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more; (2) the 7,958 inhabitants

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION
ADVANCE REPORTS

September 30, 1951

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF MASSACHUSETTS:

Series PC-8, No. 20

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final populat!on figures for selected areas in each State. In
this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued as final
figures for other States become available)
The total population of Massachusetts on
April 1, 1950, was 4,690,514, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 373,793, or
8.7 percent, over the 4,316,721 inhabitants enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, Massachusetts ranked ninth in population.
The 1950
population was more than 12 times as large as
ts population in 1790 when it was enumerated in
e first Federal census.

I,

According to the new urban definition,
Massachusetts had 3,959,239 persons living in
urban territory and 731,275 in rural territory.
The urban population comprised 84.4 percent of
the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 13 of the 14 counties in Massachusetts increased in population.
The rates of increase ranged from 2.4 percent for
Nantucket to 25.5 percent for Barnstable.
The
rate of loss for Dukes was 0.6 percent. The
largest numerical increase was recorded in Middlesex, which had a gain of 93,179. The counties
in Massachusetts ranged in size from Nantucket
with a population of 3,484 to Middlesex with a
population of 1,06zr,569.
There were 39 places in Massachusetts in
1950 incorporated as cities and 114 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants or more.
All
of the cities had 2,500 inhabitants or more.
The 69 unincorporated places of 1,000 to 2,500
inhabitants accounted for 104,758 of the 364,613
persons living in unincorporated places.
The
cities in Massachusetts ranged in size from Newyport with a population of 14,111 to Boston
th a population of 801,444.

Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporatedas cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe. The remaining population is classified
According to the urban definition
as rural.
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) elassified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of e.ivally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
Inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated places outside
urban fringes.
All the population residing in
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

-2 urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places
of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the
incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban
in their own right.)
Consequently, the special
rules of the old definition are no longer
necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Massachusetts consisted
of the following components: (1) The 3,034,825
inhabitants of the 39 cities of 2,500 inhabitants or more; (2) the 259,855 inhabitants of the
45 specially delineated unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more; and (3) 664,559 persons living in the urban-fringe areas of Boston,
Brockton, Lawrence, Lowell, New Bedford, Springfield, holyoke, Worcester, and the Massachusetts
parts of the urban-fringe areas of Fall River
and Providence, R. I. There were 83 towns urban
under special rule in Massachusetts according to

the old urban definition.
The 1950 urban population under the old definition, therefore, consisted of the 3,034,825 inhabitants of the 39
cities and the 1,087,313 inhabitants of the 83
places urban under special rule.
According to
the new urban definition, 621,646 of the inhabitants of the places urban under special rule
were classified as urban because of residence in
urban-fringe areas and 228,642 because of residence in 35 unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more. The remaining 237,025 persons
were included in the rural population.
On
the other hand, included in the urban populatio
n
according to the new definition were 42,913
persons living in urban-fringe areas and
31,213
persons living in 10 additional unincorpo
rated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more who were
classified as rural under the old definitio
n.
The net loss in the urban population of Massachusetts which resulted from the change in definition, therefore, is 162,899.

component of the urban territory is the group of

A definition of urban territory restricted to such places, however,

in previous censuses, the urban population

places.

Under the

old

definition,

an

effort was made to avoid some of the more obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
under

special rules.

Even with

these

rules,

however, many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory.
To

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

r-

- 2 improv.e the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorporated places outside urban fringes.
All the
population residing in urban-fringe areas and in
unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or
more are urban in their own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of the old definition
are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Michigan included the
following components: (1) The 4,099,007 inhab-

•
itants of the 139 incorporated places of 2,500
or more; (2) the 58,890 inhabitants of the 11
specially delineated unincorporated places of
2,500 or more; and (3) 345,187 persons living in
other territory included in the urban-fringe
areas of Detroit, Flint, Grand,Rapids, Kalamazoo,
Lansing, Muskegon, Pontiac, and Saginaw and the
Michigan part of the urban fringe of South send,
Since there were no places urban under
Ind.
special rule in Michigan according to the old
definition, the first element comprised the
urban population under the old definition. The
population of the re.aaining elements--404,077-represents the gain in the urban population of
Michigan which resulted from the change in
definition.

Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urean fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of

used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special

places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and the

17,468 persons living outside incorporated urban

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF MISSISSIPPI:

Series PC-8, No. 23

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Mississippi on
April 1, 1950, was 2,178,914, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State declined by 4,882, or
0.2 percent, from the 2,183,796 inhabitants enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, Mississippi
ranked twenty-sixth in population.
The 1950
population was nearly 29 times as large as the
population in 1820 when Mississippi was first
enumerated as a State.
According to the new urban definition,
•
Mississippi had 607,162 persons living in urban
territory and 1,571,752 in rural territory. The
urban population comprised 27.9 percent of the
population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 23 of the 82 counties
in Mississippi increased in population.
.The
largest numerical increases were recorded in
Hinds and Harrison Counties, which had gains of
34,891 and 33,274, respectively. The most rapid
rate of increase was experienced in Harrison
County, which had an increase of 65.5 percent.
The counties in Mississippi ranged in size from
Issaquena with a population of 4,966 to Hinds
with a population of 142,164.
In 1950 there were 278 places in Mississippi incorporated as cities, towns, or villages
and 9 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants
or more.
The 225 incorporated places of fewer
than 2,500 inhabitants accounted for 175,732 of
the 777,504 inhabitants living in incorporated
places.
Of the 15,964 persons living in unincorporated places, 12,564 were in the eight
places of fewer than 2,500 inhabitants. The in-

corporated places ranged in size from Blodgett
town with a population of 5 to Jackson city with
a population of 98,271.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
The remaining population is classified

According to the urban definition
as rural.
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they werenotincorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious ommissions by the
Inclusion of the places urban under special
Even with these rules, however, many

large and closely built-up places were excluded

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the
Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places
outside urban fringes.
All the population residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as
urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of
course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more

of the following components:
(I) The 602,772
inhabitants of the 53 incorporated
places of
2,500 inhabitants or more; (2) the 3,400 inhab-

are urban in their own right.)
Consequently, •
the special rules of the old definition are no
longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Mississippi consisted

itants of Mississippi City-Handsboro, the only
specially delineated unincorporated
place of
2,500 inhabitants or more in the State; and (3)
1,990 persons living in unincorporated territory
included in the urban fringe of Jackson.
Since
there were no places urban under special rule in
Mississippi according to the old definition, the
population of the incorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more comprised the urban population under the old definition.
The population
of the remaining elements--5,390--represents the
gain in the urban population which resulted from
the change in definition.

census.
According to the new urban definition, Montana had 258,034 persons living in urban territory and 332,990 persons in rural territory.
The urban population amounted to 43.7 percent of
the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 21 of the 56 counMore than

were 20,266 persons in the unincorporated places,
15,138 of whom were living in the nine places
with fewer than 2,500 inhabitants. The incorporated places ranged in size from Bearcreek town
with a population of 162 to Great Falls city
with a population of 39,214.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitantsor more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of

used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhaoitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made
to avoid some of the more obvious omissions
by the inclusion of the places urban under

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION
ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF NEBRASKA:

Series P0-8, No. 26

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by Ctates. Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Nebraska on April 1,
1950, was 1,325,510, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 9,676, or
0.7 percent, over the 1,315,834 persons enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Nebraska ranked
thirty-third in population. The 1950 population
Alli Nebraska was about 48 times as large as
legs population in 1860 when the Territory of
Nebraska was first separately enumerated in a
Federal census.
According to the new urban definition,
Nebraska had 621,905 persons living in urban
territory and 703,605 persons in rural territory.
The urban population amounted to 46.9 percent of
the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 19 of the 93 counties in Nebraska gained population.
Douglas
County, the largest county in the State, had the
largest numerical increase, whereas the most
rapid rate of growth was experienced in Sarpy
County. The counties in Nebraska ranged in 'size
from Arthur with a population of 803 to Douglas
with a population of 281,020.
There were 534 places in Nebraska incorporated as cities and villages and 3 unincorporated places. There were 856,680 persons living
in the incorporated places, 250,150 of whom were
in the 494 places with fewer than 2,500 inhabitants.
There were 5,941 persons in the unincorporated places, 3,224 of whom were in the two
The inaces of 1,000 to 2,500 inhabitants.
rporated places ranged in size from Nenzel
village with a population of 24 to Omaha city
with a population of 251,117.

Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
According to the urban definition
as rural.
used in previous censuses, the urban population
'comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
To improve the situfrom the urban territory.
ation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated places outside
All the population residing in
urban fringes.

where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

to the 1950 definition. (Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban in their

territory in the urban fringe of Lincoln and the

own right.) Consequently, the special rules of
the old definition are no longer necessary.

Nebraska parts of the urban fringes of Omaha and
Sioux City, Iowa.
Since there were no places
urban under special rule in Nebraska according
to the old definition, the population of the
first element comprised the urban population

According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Nebraska included the
following components:
(1) The 606,530 inhabitants of the 40 incorporated places of 2,500 or
more; (2) the 2,717 inhabitants of Huskerville,
the 1 specially delineated unincorporated place

under the old definition. The population of the
remaining elements--15,375--represents the gain
in the urban population of Nebraska which resulted from the change in definition.

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF NEVADA:

Series PC-8, No. 27

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is the third of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each
State. In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued
as final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Nevada on April 1,
1950, was 160,083, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the past 10 years, the population of the State increased by 49,836, or 45.2
percent, over the 110,247 inhabitants enumerated
in 1940. In 1950, Nevada had the smallest popuHowever, the present

population of Nevada is more than 23 times as
rge as its population 90 years ago when it was

e

rst enumerated in a Federal census.

In 1950, for the first time, Nevada had a
larger urban than rural population, with an
urban population of 91,625 and a rural population of 68,458.
The urban population comprised
57.2 percent of the total number of inhabitants
of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 9 of Nevada's 17
counties gained population and 8 lost population.
Of those which gained, Clark and Mineral Counties more than doubled their population. Of the
counties which lost population, all except White
Clark,
Pine County had no urban population.
Washoe, Ormsby, and Humboldt Counties, the only
counties in the State with more than half their
population living in urban territory, had population increases amounting to 194.2, 54.6, 30.0,
The counties of
and 2.0 percent, respectively.
Nevada ranged in size from Esmeralda with a population of 614 to Washoe with a population of
50,205.
Nevada had a total of 15 incorporated places
and 9 unincorporated places of 1,000 or more
ranging In size from Wells town with a population
f 947 to Reno city with a population of 32,497.
he population living in incorporated and unincorporated places amounted to 71.3 percent of
the total population of the State. Ten places

in Nevada had 2,500 inhabitants or more and an
aggregate population of 91,625; the remaining 14
places were smaller than 2,500 and had a combined population of 22,502. The 15 incorporated
places alone contained 94,221 inhabitants, or
58.9 percent of the total population of the
State. Of these 15 places, 8 had 2,500 inhabitants or more and a combined population of 84,079.
Nevada had two unincorporated places of 2,500 or
more and seven of from 1,000 to 2,500. The population in the unincorporated places of 2,500 or
more was 7,546, and the combined population of
the smaller unincorporated places was 12,360.
To permit a more realistic classification
of the population by urban and rural residence,
the Bureau of the Census adopted a new urban
definition for use in the 1950 Census. According
to this definition, the urban population comprises all persons living in (a) places of 2,500
inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
borougns, and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, incorporated or unincorporated,
around cities of 50,000 or more; (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside
of any urban fringe; and (d) incorporated towns
of 2,500 inhabitants or more except in New
England, New York, and Wisconsin, where "towns"
are simply minor civil divisions of counties.
The remaining population is classified as rural.
According to the old definition, the urban
population comprised all persons living in incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more
and in areas (usually minor civil divisions)
classified as urban under special rules relating
to population size and density.
In order to apply the new urban definition,
the Bureau of the Census has defined boundaries
for unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants

rule according to the old definition. The distribution of the population by urban and rural
residence under the new and old definitions differed, therefore, in that the new definition included in the urban population the 7,546 persons
in the 2 unincorporated places of 2,500
or more, who under the old definition would have
constituted part of the rural population.

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION

FOR RELEASE

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF NEW HAMPSHIRE:

series PC-6, No. 2:6

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
Additional reports will be issued as
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of New Hampshire on
April 1, 1950, was 533,242, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 41,718, or
8.5 percent over the 491,524 inhabitants enumerated in 1940. Among the States and the District
of Columbia, New Hampshire ranked forty-fifth
in population.
The present population of New
Hampshire is almost 4 times as larre as its
population 160 years ago when it was enumerated
in the first Federal census.
According to the new urban definition, New
mpshire had 306,806 persons living in urban
rritory in 1950 and 226,436 in rural territory.
The urban population comprised 57.5 percent of
the total population of the State. The trend in
the proportion of the State population that was
urban can be examined only on the basis of
the old definition.
On that basis, the proportion urban reached a peak in 1930 and declined
slightly in the two following decades.
Between 1940 and 1950, all but 1 of the 10
counties in New Hampshire gained population.
Hillsborough, the largest county in the State,
had the largest numerical increase; but the most
rapid rates of growth were experienced in Rockinghamand Strafford Counties, which had increases
of 20.5 and 18.4 percent, respectively. In Coos

2,500 inhabitants or more and 53,377 persons
living in the 36 smaller unincorporated places.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban territory has been
defined to comprise (a) places of 2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities, boroughs,
towns,' and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, including both incorporated and
unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or
more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe.
All other territory is classified as rural. According to the definition used in previous censuses, urban territory was designated as all
incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more
and areas (usually minor civil divisions) classified as urban under special rules relating to
population size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census
set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated places outside

2,500 or more and the 34,092 inhabitants of the 6
towns urban under special rule in 1940. The 195
definition classified as urban the 14,939 inhabi
ants of components 3 and 4 who under the old definition would have been included in the rural population. On the other hand, it included in the rural
population the 9,382 persons living in the parts of
the 6 towns urban under special rule in 1940 outside
the unincorporated places of 2,500 or more. The net
effect is a gain of 5,557 in the urban population

According to the new definition, the 1950 urban
population of New Hampshire included the following
components: (1) The 267,157 inhabitants of the
12 incorporated plEces of 2,500 or more; (2) the
24,710 inhabitants of the 6 unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more delineated within towns
which were entirely urban under special rule 1111940;
(3) the 12,753 inhabitants of the other 3 unincorporated places of 2,500 or more; and (4) the 2,186

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION

FUR RI:LEA:2

ADVANCE REPORTS

September 26, ll

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF NEW JERSEY:

Series P0-8, No. 29

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of New Jersey on
April 1, 1950, was 4,835,329, according to final
figures for the State released todey by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 675,164, or
16.2 percent, over the 4,160,165 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, New Jersey ranked eighth in population. The 1950 population was more than 26 times as large as the
population in 1790 when New Jersey was enumerted in the first Federal census.

er

According to the new urban definition, New
Jersey had 4,186,207 persons living in urban territory and 649,122 in rural territory. The urban population comprised 86.6 percent of the
population of the State.

Between 1940 and 1950, 20 of the 21 counties in New Jersey increased in population. The
rates of change ranged from a decline of 0.7
percent for Hudson to an increase of 50.2 percent for Ocean. Nearly one-fifth of the population gain for the State was accounted for by
.
. increase of
Bergen County, which had a numerical
129,493. Three other counties--Essex, Monmouth,
and Union--had numerical increases in excess of
50,000.
The counties in New Jersey ranged in
size from Sussex with a population of 34,423 to
Essex with a population of 905,949.
There were 332 places in New Jersey in 1950
incorporated as cities, towns, boroughs, or villages and 45 unincorporated places of 1,000 inThe 138 incorporated places
habitants or more.
of fewer than 2,500 inhabitants accounted for
165,489 of the 3,713,606 inhabitants of the incorporeted places.
Of the 121,448 persons livig in the unincorporated places, 46,516 were in
he 30 places of fewer than 2,500 inhabitants.

wt

The incorporated places
A.24-s-e


https://fraser.stlouisfed.org
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

in New Jersey ranged in

size from Island Beach borough with a population
Newark city with a population of

of 13 to
438,776.

Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as citie,
boroughs, towns," and villages; (b) the densely
.settled urban fringe, including bcth incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe. The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprise
all persons living in .incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more end areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants
or more.
A definition of urban territory restricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, en
effort was made to avoid some of the more obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
under special rules.
Even with these rules,
however, many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin)
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

_ 2 Under the old urban definiPhiladelphia, Pa.
tion, there were 12 townships urban under special
rule in New Jersey. The urban population according to the old urban definition consisted of the

enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorAll the
porated places outside urban fringes.
population residing in urban-fringe areas and
in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is
classified as urban according to the 1950 defplaces
(Of course, the incorporated
inition.
2,500 or more are urban in their own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of the old definition are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of New Jersey consisted of
the following components: (1) The 3,548,117 inplaces of
habitants of the 194 incorporated
',500 inhabitants or more; (2) the 74,932 inhabitants of the 15 specially delineated unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and
3) 563,158 persons living in other territory
in the urban fringe of Atlantic City and the
New Jersey parts of the urban-fringe areas of
New York-Northeastern New Jersey, Trenton, and

3,548,117 inhabitants of the 194 incorporated
places of 2,500 or more and the 299,654 persons
living in the 12 townships urban under special
rule.
Of the inhabitants of the places urban
under special rule, 279,335 were classified as
urban under the new definition because of residence in urban-fringe areas and 11,286 because
of residence in an unincorporated place of 2,500
inhabitants or more. The remaining 9,033 persons
were classified as rural.
On the other hand,
the 63,646 inhabitants in the other unincor,:
rated places of 2,500 inhabitants or mor6 and
283,823 of the persons in other territory in the
urban-fringe areas were included in the rural
population under the old definition.
The net
gain in the urban population of New Jersey which
resulted from the
fore, is 338,436.

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF NEW MEXICO:

Series P0-8, No. 30

APRIL I, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of New Mexico on
April 1, 1950, was 681,187, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 149,369, or
28.1 percent, over the 531,818 inhabitants enumerated in 1940. Among the States and the District of Columbia, New Mexico ranked fortieth in
population.
The 1950 population of New Mexico
was more than seven times as large as the popuation of the Territory of New Mexico in 1870,
he first year for which the population of the
area of the present State is available.

411(

According to the new urban definition, New
Mexico had 341,889 persons living in urban territory in 1950 and 339,298 in rural territory.
The urban population comprised 50.2 percent of
the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 17of the 32 counties
in New Mexico gained population and 14 lost
population.
The remaining county--Los Alamos-was formed from parts of Sandoval and Santa Fe
Counties in 1949.
More than one-half the gain
of the State was accounted for by Bernalillo
County, which led in both the amount and rate of
increase.
The counties of New Mexico ranged in
size from Harding with a population of,3,013 to
Bernalillo with a population of 145,673.
In
1950 New Mexico had 72 places incorporated as
cities, towns, or villages,and 16 unincorporated
places of 1,000 inhabitants or more.
Of the
362,044 inhabitants of the incorporated places,
47,408 were living in the 48 places with fewer
than 2,500 inhabitants.
There were 43,809 persons living in the unincorporated places, 16,556
of whom were in the 11 places of 1,000 to 2,500
nhabitants.
The incorporated places ranged in
size from Grenville village with a population of

of

Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persoas living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
Incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
Even with these rules, however, many

large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advanceof enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around citiesof 50,000 or

POPULATION OF NEW YORK:

Series PC-8, io. 31

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available).
The total population of New York on April 1,
1950, was 14,830,192, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 1,351,050,
or 10.0 percent, over the 13,479,142 inhabitants
Among the States, New York
enumerated in 1940.
ranked first in population. The 1950 population
was more than 43 times as large as the populaion in 1790, when New York was enumerated in
he first Federal census.

11

In 1950, according to the new urban definition, New York had an urban population of
12,682,446 and a rural population of 2,147,746.
The urban population comprised 85.5 percent of
the total population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, all but 3 of the 62
counties in New York increased in population.
One-fifth of the population gain for the State
was accounted for by Nassau County, which led in
both the amount and rate of increase with a
gain of 266,017, or 65.4 percent.
The gain of
436,962 for the five counties constituting New
York City (Bronx, Kings, New York, Queens, and
Richmond) represented one-third of the populaThe counties in New
tion gain for the State.
York ranged in size from Hamilton with a population of 4,105 to Kings with a population of
2,738,175.
New York had a total of 611 incorporated
places and 69 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants or more.
Of the 12,258,947 persons
living in the incorporated places, 404,356 were
iving in the 399 places of fewer than 2,500 inabitants. Of the 166,442 persons living in the
unincorporated places, 71,995 were living in the

The
51 places of 1,000 to 2,500 inhabitants.
incorporated places ranged in size from Dering
Harbor village with a population of 4 to New
York City, which had a population of 7,891,957,
or more than one-half of the population of the
State.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated ascities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural. According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to populaton
.size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants
A definition of urban territory reor more.
stricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorporated places. Under the old definition, an effort was made to avoid some of the more obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
under special rules.
Even with these rules,
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 however, many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorAll the
porated places outside urban fringes.
population residing in urban-fringe areas and in
unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or
Consemore are urban in their own right.)
quently, the special rules of the old definition
are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of New York included the
following components: (1) The 11,854,591 inhabitants of the 212 incorporated places of 2,500
or more; (2) the 94,447 inhabitants of the 18

specially delineated unincorporated places of4111
2,500 or more; and (3) the 733,408 persons living in other territory in the urban-fringe areas
of Albany-Troy, Binghamton, Buffalo, Niagara
Falls, Rochester, Schenectady, Syracuse, and
Utica and the New York part of the urban fringe
of New York-Northeastern New Jersey.
..ccording
to the old definition, New Yo'rk had one place-Irondequoit town--urban under special rule. The
first element and the 34,417 persons living in
Irondequoit town comprised the urban population
under the old definition. Of the persons living
in Irondequoit town, 29,692 were classified as
urban according to the new definition because
they were living in the urban fringe of Rochester.
The remaining 4,725 persons were classified as living in rural territory.
The net
gain in the urban population of New York resulting from the change in definition, therefore,
was 793,438.

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of North Carolina on
April 1, 1950, was 4,061,929, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 490,306, or
13.7 percent, over the 3,571,623 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, North
Carolina ranked tenth in population.
The 1950
population of North Carolina was more than 10
times as large as its population 160 years ago
en it was enumerated in the first Federal
nsus.

North Carolina has always been a State with
the preponderance of its population living in
rural territory.
According to the new u2ban
definition, North Carolina had 1,368,101 persons
living in urban territory in 1950 and 2,693,828
in rural territory.
The urban population comprised 33.7 percent of the total population of
the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 78 of the 100 counties in North Carolina gained population and
22 lost population. Of those that lost, 20 had
no urban population.
Fifteen of the counties
increased at a rate in excess of 20 percent. The
most rapid rate of growth, 134.4 percent, took
place in Onslow County, whereas the largest numerical gain, 45,226, occurred in Mecklenburg
County.
The counties in North Carolina ranged
in size from Tyrrell with a population of 5,048
to Mecklenburg with a population of 197,052.
North Carolina had a total of 475 incorporated places in which 1,529,617 persons were

The

1950 urban population of North Dakota amounted
to 164,817, an increase of 24.9 percent over the
131,923 urban in 1940. However, the urban population in 1950 comprised only 26.6 percent of

population greater than 1,000.
Unde” the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the'urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
borouahs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, inclrding both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of

censuses, the urban population
previous
in
used
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
.(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions ,of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled •centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by
the inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely bnilt-up places were excluded
from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries
for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated places outside
urban fringes.
All of the population residing

in urban-fringe areas and in unincorpor-'
places of 2,500 or more is classified as uaccording to the 1950 definition. Consequent„
the special rules of the old definition are no
longer necessary.
Since there were no urban-fringe areas in
North Dakota, no unincorporated places, and no
places urban under special rule according to the
old definition, the distribution of the population of North Dakota by urban and rural residence is the same according to either definition.

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF OHIO:

Series PC-8, No. 34

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
Additional reports will be issued as
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Ohio on April 1,
1950, was 7,946,627, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 1,039,015,
or 15.0 percent, over the 6,907,612 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, Ohio
ranked fifth in population. The 1950 population
was more than 34 times as large as the popuation in 1810 when Ohio was first enumerated as
a State.

According to the new urban definition, Ohio
had 5,578,274 persons living in urban territory

and 2,368,353 persons in rural territory.
urban population comprised 70.2 percent of the
population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 70 of the 88 counties
in Ohio increased in population. The most rapid
rate of increase--64.2 percent--was recorded for
Greene County. Cuyahoga led the counties in the
amount of gain with an increase of 172,282. The
combined gain of Cuyahoga County and the three
other counties which had numerical increases of
100,000 or more--Franklin, Hamilton, and Montgomery--accounted for nearly one-half of the

of the unincorporated

places, 36,615 were in the 22 places of fewer
than 2,500 inhabitants. The incorporated places
ranged in size from Yankee Lake village with a
population of 53 to Cleveland city with a population of 914,808.
Under the urban definition established for
in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
use

settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe. The remaining population is classified
as rural. According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
of the places urban under special

Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places
outside urban fringes.
All the population residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as

tion

urban

according to the 1950 definition.
(Of
course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more
are urban in their own right.)
Consequently,
the special rules of the old definition are no
longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Ohio consisted of the
following components: (1) The 5,273,206 inhabit-

ants of the 214 incorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more; (2) the 15,022 inhabitant")
of the 5 specially delineated unincorporate
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and (3)
290,046 persons living in other territory in the
urban-fringe areas of Akron, Canton, Cleveland,
Columbus, Dayton, Hamilton, Springfield, Toledo,
and Youngstown and the Ohio parts of the urbanfringe areas of Cincinnati, Huntington (W. Va.)-Since there
Ashland (Ky.), and Wheeling, W. Va.
were no places urban under special rule in Ohio
according to the old urban definition, the population of the first element constituted the urban
population under the old definition.
The population of the remaining elements--305,068--represents the gain in the urban population of Ohio
which resulted from the change in definition.

POPULATION OF OKLAHOMA:

Series PC-8, No. 35

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Oklahoma on April 1,
1950, was 2,233,351, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director,
Commerce.

Bureau of the Census, Department of
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State declined by 103,083, or
4.4 percent from the 2,336,434 persons enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Oklahoma ranked
twenty-fifth in population. The 1950 population
of Oklahoma was about 8i times as large as the
11890 population of the area constituting substantially the present area of the State.
According to the new urban definition Oklahoma had 1,139,481 persons living in urban terThe
ritory and 1,093,870 in rural territory.
urban population accounted for 51.0 percent of
the population of the State.
Beteen 1940 and 1950, only 11 of the 77

41

counties in the State increased in population.
The rates of increase ranged from 3.8 percent in
Kay County to 49.5 percent in Cleveland County.
Oklahoma and Tulsa, the most populous counties
in the State, had numerical increases of 81,193
and 58,323, respectively. The counties in Oklahoma ranged in size from Cimarron with a population of 4,589 to Oklahoma with a population of
325,352.
In 1950 there were 525 places in Oklahoma
incorporated as cities or towns and 3 unincorporated places of 1,000 or more.
There were
1,366,844 persons living in the incorporated
places, 259,592 of whom were living in the 440
places of fewer than 2,500 inhabitants.
Of the
5,655 inhabitants of the unincorporated places,
2,300 were in the two places of 1,000 to 2,500
inhabitants. The incorporated places ranged in
size from Santa Fe city with a population of
to Oklahoma City with a population of .243,504.

Under the urban definition established for
in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or more;
and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitThe reants or more outside any urban fringe.
maining population is classified as rural. According to the urban definition used in previous
censuses, the urban population comprised all
persons living in incorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more and areas (usually minor
civil divisions) classified as urban under special rules relating to population size and
density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
Even with these rules, however, many

large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory. To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census
set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.

The total population of Oregon On April 1,

39.6 percent, over the 1,089,684 persons enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, Oregon ranked

According to the new urban definition,
Oregon had 819,318 persons living in urban territory and 702,023 living in rural territory.
The urban population amounted to 53.9 percent of
the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 32 of the 36 counties
in Oregon increased in population.
Twelve of
the counties which gained population had rates
of increase in excess of 50 percent.
Jefferson
and Douglas more than doubled in population beMore than one-fourth of
tween 1940 and 1950.
the population gain for the State was concentrated in Multnomah County, which increased by
116,438.
The counties in Oregon ranged in size
from Sherman with a population of 2,271 to Multnomah with a population of 471,537.
There were 219 places in Oregon incorporated
as cities or towns and 9 unincorporated places
of 1,000 inhabitants or more. There were 858,447

Under the urban definition established for
in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 Inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities
of 50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places
of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally

large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION
RELEASE
Sober 14, 1951

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF PENNSYLVANIA:

Series P0-8, No. 37

APRIL. 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Pennsylvania on
April 1, 1950, was 10,498,012, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 597,832, or
6.0 percent, over the 9,900,180 inhabitants enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Pennsylvania
ranked third in population. The 1950 population
was more than 24 times as large as its population in 1790 when it was enumerated in the
rirst Federal census,

4Ip

According to the new urball definition,
Pennsylvania had 7,403,036 persons living in
urban territory and 3,094,976 in rural territory.
The urban population accounted for 70.5
percent of the population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 41of the 67 counties
In Pennsylvania increased in population.
The
most rapid rate of increase was experienced in
Bucks County, which gained at the rate of 34.3
percent.
The largest numerical increase was
recorded in Philadelphia County, which had an
increase of 140,271.
Two additional counties-Allegheny and Delaware--had increases in excess
of 100,000.
The combined gain of these three
counties accounted for nearly three-fifths of

in Pennsylvania ranged in size from Forest with
a population of 4,944 to Philadelphia with a
population of 2,071,605.
ln 1950 there were 990 incorporated places
in Pennsylvania (cities, boroughs,and one town-Bloomsburg) and 143 unincorporated places of

corporated places.
Of the 259,034 persons in
unincorporated places, 180,296 were in the 122
places of 1,000 to 2,500 inhabitants. The incorporated places ranged in size from Livermore
borough with a population of 57 to Philadelphia
city with a population of 2,071,605.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities
of 50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places
of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban

as rural. According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of

effort was made to avoid some of the more obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
Even with these rules,

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in °the' States.

however, many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorporated places outside urban fringes.
All the
population residing in urban-fringe areas and in
unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or
more are urban in their own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of the old definition
are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Pennsylvania consisted
of the following components: (1) The 6,583,862
inhabitants of the 362 incorporated places of

Erie, Harrisburg, Johnstown, Lancaster, Pittsburgh, Reading, Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, and York
and the Pennsylvania parts of the urban-fringe

were 11 townships in tne State that were classified as urban under special rule under the old
urban definition. The urban population according
to the old definition, therefore, consisted of

the 323,131 inhabitants of the places urban

urban-fringe areas were included in the rural
population according to the old definition. The
net gain in the urban population which resulted
from the change in definition, therefore, is
496,043.

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF RHODE ISLAND:

Series PC-8, No. 38

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Rhode Island on
April 1, 1950, was 791,896, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 78,550, or
11.0 percent, over the 713,346 persons enumerated in 1940. Among the States and the District
of Columbia, Rhode Island ranked thirty-seventh
population.
The 1950 population of Rhode
and was more than 11 times as large as its
population 160 years ago when it was enumerated
in the first Federal census.

According to the new urban definition,
Rhode Island had 667,212 persons living in urban
territory and 124,864 in rural territory. The
urban population comprised 84.3 percent of the
population of the State.
All five of the counties in Rhode Island
increased in population between 1940 and 1950.
The rates of gain ranged from 4.5 percent for
Providence County to 49.4 percent for Washington
County.
The largest numerical increase was
recorded in Providence County, which increased
by 24,675. The counties in Rhode Island ranged
in size from Bristol with a population of 29,079
to Providence with a population of 574,973.
Rhode Island had 7 places incorporated as
cities and 17 unincorporated places of 1,000
inhabitants or more. There were 539,523 persons
in the cities and 47,427 in the unincorporated
places. All the cities had 2,500 inhabitants or
more.
Of the inhabitants of the unincorporated
places, 20,024 were in the 13 places of 1,000 to
,500 inhabitants.
The cities ranged in size
rom Central Falls with a population of 23,550

4110

to Providence with a population of 248,674.

Under the urban definition established for
in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorpouse

rated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe. The remaining population is classified

as rural.
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more.
A definition of urban territory restricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an
effort was made to avoid some of the more
obvious omissions by the inclusion of the places
urban under special rules.
Even with these
rules, however, many large and closely built-up
places were excluded from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorporated places outside urban fringes.

unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the 1950 definition. (Of course, the incorporated places of
2,500 or more are urban in their own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of the old
definition are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Rhode Island consisted
of the following components:
(1) The 539,523
inhabitants of the seven cities in the State,
all of which had more than 2,500 inhabitants;
(2) the 27,403 inhabitants of the four specially
delineated unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and (3) the 100,286 persons
living outside of incorporated urban places in
the Rhode Island parts of the urban-fringe areas
of Providence and Fall River, Mass.
There were
12 towns which were classified as urban under
special rule according to the old definition.

Between 1940 and 1950, the population of the State increased by 217,223, or 11.4
percent, over the 1,899,804 inhabitants enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, South Carolina
ranked twenty-seventh in population.
The 1950
opulation was about 8t times as large as its
opulation 160 years ago, when it was enumerated

In 1950, according to the new urban definition, South Carolina had an urban population
of 777,921 and a rural population of 1,339,106.
The urban population constituted 36.7 percent of
the total population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 31 of the 46 counties
in South Carolina gained population and 15 lost
population. Charleston and Richland, two of the
most populous counties in the State, experienced
the highest percentage increases, 36.1 and 36.0,
respectively.
Of the counties which lost population, Barnwell had the largest rate of decline,

ranged in population size from McCormick with
9,557 to Greenville with 168,152.
South Carolina had 239 incorporated places
and 58 unincorporated places of 1,000 inhabitants
or more.
There were 736,412 persons living in
the incorporated places and 155,852 in the unincorporated places.
These places ranged in size
from Snelling town with a population of 34 to
Amkolumbia city with a population of 86,914.

Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban population comprises all persons living in (a) places of 2,500
inhabitants or more incorporated as cities, boroughs, towns,'
and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the definition used in
previous censuses, urban territory was designated as all incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas (usually minor civil
divisions) classified as urban under
special
rules relating to population size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin, where
"towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and are not
necessarily densely settled centers like the towns in
other States.

for urban-fringe areas around cities of 50,000
or more and for unincorporated places outside
urban fringes.
All the population residing in

or more; (2) the 100,459 inhabitants of the 2341,
specially delineated unincorporated places o
2,500 inhabitants or more; (3) the 68,237 persons
living in the 1 incorporated place under 2,500
and in unincorporated territory in the urban
fringes of Charleston and Columbia, S. C., and
the South Carolina part of the urban fringe of
Augusta, Ga. Since the first element comprises
the urban population under the old definition,
the aggregate population of the remaining elements--168,696--represents the gain in the. urban
population which resulted from the change in
definition.

urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places
of 2,500 or more is classified as urban accordtog to the new definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or more are urban in
their own right.) Consequently, the special rules
of the old definition are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of South Carolina included
the following components:
(1) The 609,225 inhabitants of the 60 incorporated places of 2,500

BUREAU OF THE CENSUS

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION

FOR RELEASE
July 14, 3..51

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF SOUTH DAKOTA:

Series PC-8, No. 40

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by Stat.... Additional reports will be issued as final figures for other States become available)

The total population of South Dakota on
April 1, 1950, was 652,740, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 9,779, or
1.5 percent, over the 642,961 inhabitants enumerated in 1940.
Among the States and the District of Columbia, South Dakota ranked fortyfirst in population.
The 1950 population of
AlliSouth Dakota was about 55 times as large as its
41Wpopulation in 1870, the first year in which
Dakota Territory was enumerated by areas that
can be grouped to produce the approximate area
of the State. South Dakota was admitted to the
Union in 1889.
According to the new urban definition,
South Dakota had 216,710 persons living in urban
territory in 1950 and 436,030 in rural territory.
The urban population comprised 33.2 percent of the total population of the State.
The
trend in the urban and rural population can be
examined only on the basis of the old definition.
On that basis, the urban population increased by 58,070, or 36.7 percent, whereas the
rural population dropped by 48,291, or 10.0 percent. The numerical increase in the urban population Was the largest intercensal gain in the
urban population in the history of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 21 of the 68 counties in South Dakota gained population, whereas
47 lost population.
Of the 24 counties which
had urban population, 15 gained population. The
most rapid rate of growth--43.1 percent--was
experienced in Pennington County, the second
largest county in the State. The largest numer("cal increase was recorded in Minnehaha County.


https://fraser.stlouisfed.org
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

The counties in South Dakota ranged in size from
Armstrong with a population of 52 to Minnehaha
with a population of 70,910.
South Dakota had a total of 306 incorporated
places with a combined population of 347,636
and I unincorporated place of 2,217 inhabitants.
Of the 306 incorporated places, 25 had 2,500 inhabitants or more and an aggregate population of
216,157. The incorporated places ranged in size
from Carter town with a population of 16 to
Sioux Falls city with a population of 52,696.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe.
The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the urban definition used in
previous censuses, urban population comprised
all persons living in incorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more and areas (usually
minor Civil divisions) classified as urban under
special rules relating to population size and
density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants
or more.
A definition of urban territory restricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorporated
places.
Under the old definition, an effort
was made to avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the inclusion of the places urban under
special rules.
Even with these rules, however,
many large and closely built-up places were excluded from the urban territory. To improve the
situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the
Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places
outside urban fringes.
All the population residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified

as urban according to the new definition.
(Of
course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or
more
are also urban in their own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of the old
definition
are no longer necessary'.

•

According to the new definition, the
1950
urban population of South Dakota included
(1)
the 216,157 inhabitants of the 25 incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more, and
(2) the 553 persons living in unincorporated
territory of the South Dakota part of the urban

BUREAU OF THE CENSUS

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION
ADVANCE REPORTS

FOR RELEASE
October 7, 1951

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF TENNESSEE:

Series PC-8, No, 41

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)

4111

The total population of Tennessee ce2Apri1 1,
1950, was 3,291,718, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 375,877,
or 12.9 percent, over the 2,915,841 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Tennessee
ranked sixteenth in population. The 1950 population was more than 31 times as large as the population of Tennessee in 1800 when it was first
enumerated as a State.
According to the new urban definition, Tennessee had 1,452,602 persons living in urban
territory in 1950 and 1,839,116 in rural territory. The urban population comprised 44.1 percent of the total population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 52 of the 95 counThe most

rapid rate of increase-124.1 percent--was experienced in Anderson County. The largest numerical gain occurred in Shelby County, which had a

gain of 124,143.
population increase for the State was accounted
by the four counties having 100,000 inhabitants
or more--Shelby, Davidson, Knox, and Hamilton.
The counties in Tennessee ranged in size from
Moore with a population of 3,948 to Shelby with
a population of

illl

482,393.

Tennessee had 238 places incorporated as
cities and towns and 23 unincorporated places of
1,000 or more inhabitants. Of the 1,410,123 persons living in the incorporated places, 145,964
were in the 174 places of fewer than 2,500 inhabitants. There were 80,545 persons living in
the unincorporated places, 24,458 of whom were
living in the 16 places of 1,000 to 2,500 inhab-

itants. The incorporated places ranged in size
from Dale Hollow town with a population of 5 to
Memphis city with a population of 396,000.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe. The remaining population is classified
as rural.
According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded from the urban territory. To improve the

Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places out-

following components; (1) The 1,264,159 inhabitants of the 64 incorporated places of 2,500 or
more; (2) the 56,087 inhabitants of the 7 specially delineated unincorpr,rated places of 2,500
or more; (3) the 132,356 persons living in other
territory included in the urban-fringe areas of
Knoxville, Memphis, and Nashville and the Tennessee part of the uroan fringe of Chattanooga.
Since there were no places urban under special
rule in Tennessee according to the old definition, the first element comprised the urban population under the old definition. The population

U. S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

1950 CENSUS OF POPULATION
ADVANCE REPORTS

FOR RELEASE
October 25, 1951

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF TEXAS:

Series PC-8, No. 42

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is the.final report of a series of reports presenting final population figures
for selected areas in each State)
The total population of Texas on April 1,
1950, was 7,711,194, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 1,296,370,
or 20.2 percent, over the 6,414,824 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Texas
ranked sixth in population. The 1950 population
of Texas was more than 06 times its population
in 1850 when it was first enumerated in a Federal
census.

•

According to the new urban definition,
Texas had an urban population of 4,838,060 and
a rural population of 2,873,134. The urban population accounted for 82.7 percent of the population of t)le state.

Between 1940 and 1950, 108 of the 254 counties in Texas increased in population. The most
rapid rate of increase was experienced in Andrews
County, in which the 1950 population was nearly
four times as large as the population in 1940.
In four additional counties--Ector, Midland,
Moore, and Orange--the population more than
doubled over the 10-year period.
The largest
numerical increase took place in Harris County,
which had an increase of 277,740. Dallas, Hexer,
and Tarrant, the other counties with increases in
excess of 100,000, had increases of 216,235,
162,284, and 135,732, respectively. These four
counties accounted for more than three-fifths of
the population gain of the entire State.
The
counties in Texas ranged in size from Kenedy
with a population of 832 to Harris with a population of 806,701.
In 1950 there were 719 places in Texas inoorporated as cities, towns, or villages and 47

places in Texas ranged in size from Belcherville
town with a population of 31 to Houston city with
a population of 596,163.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities
of 50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places
of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban

as rural. According to the urban definition
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of

stricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled

where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 places, merely because they were not incorporated
places.
Under the old definition, an
effort was made to avoid some of the more obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
under special rules.
Even with these rules,
however, many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorporated places outside urban fringes.
All the
population residing in urban-fringe areas and in
unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or
more are urban in their own right.)
Consequently, the special rules of the old definition
are no longer necessary.

•

According to the new urban definition, the
urban population of Texas included the
following components: (1) The 4,612,666 inhabitants of the 258 incorporated places of 2,500
Inhabitants or more; (2) the 54,764 inhabitants
of the 14 specially delineated unincorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and (3)
170,630 persons living in other territory in the
urban-fringe areas of Amarillo, Austin, Beaumont,
Corpus Christi, Dallas, El Paso, Fort Worth,
Galveston, Houston, Port Arthur, San Antonio,
and Waco. Since there were no places in Texas
classified as urban under special rule according
to the old definition, the population of the
first element constituted the urban population
under the old definition. The population of the
remaining elements--225,394--represents the gain
1950

in the urban population of Texas which

boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely

50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of

size and

In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special
rules.
Even with these rules, however, many
large and closely built-up places were excluded
from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas around cities of
50,000 or more and for unincorporated places

outside urban fringes. All the population residing in urban-fringe areas and in unincorporated
places of 2,500 or more is classified as urban
Consequently,
according to the new definition.
the special rules of the old definition are no
longer necessary.
According to the new definition, the 1950
urban population of Utah included the following
components: (1) The 412,518 inhabitants of the
30 incorporated places of 2,500 or more; (2) the
12,796 inhabitants of the 3 unincorporated places
of 2,500 or more; and (3) the 24,541 persons
living in the unincorporated territory and in
the I incorporated place under 2,500 in the
urban fringe of Salt Lake City. Since the first
element comprises the urban population under the
old definition, the aggregate population of the
remaining elements--37,337--represents the net
gain in urban population which resulted from the
change in definition.

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF VERN°.TT:

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is the first of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each
State. In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States. Additional reports will be issued
as final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Vermont on April 1,
1950, was 377,747, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce. During the past 10 years, the population of the State increased by 18,516, or 5.2
percent, over the 359,231 inhabitants enumerated
in 1940.
Among the States and the District of
Columbia, Vermont ranked 46th in population. The
present population of Vermont is about 4i times
as large as its population 160 years ago when it
as first enumerated in a Federal census.

Vermont has always been a State with the
preponderance of its population living in rural
territory.
In 1950, Vermont had an urban population of 137,612 and a rural population of
240,135. The urban population was larger than
ever before but still comprised only 36.4 percent of the total population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 9 of Vermont's 14
counties gained population and5 lost population.
Each of the counties which lost population was
predominantly rural, no one of them having less
than two-thirds of its population living in
rural territory. Chittenden and Washington Counties, the only counties in the State with
more than half their population living in urban
territory, had population increases amounting to
20.1 percent and 3.2 percent, respectively. The
counties of Vermont ranged in size from Grand
Isle with a population of 3,406 to Chittenden
with a population of 62,570.
Vermont had a total of 71 incorporated and
9 unincorporated places ranging in size from
West Glover village with a population of 58 to
rlington city with a population of 33,155.

place of 2,500 or more--Brattleboro--was 9,606,
and the combined population of the smaller unincorporated places was 12,641.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban territory has been
defined to comprise (a) places of 2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities, boroughs,
towns,' and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or
more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe. All
other territory is classified as rural. According to the urban definition used in previous
censuses, urban territory was designated as all
incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more
and areas (usually minor civil divisions) classified as urban under special rules relating to
population size and density.

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.

The total population of Virginia on April 1,
1950, was 3,318,680, according to final figures
for the State released today by Roy V. Peel,
Director, Bureau of the Census, Department of
Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 640,907, or
23.9 percent, over the 2,677,773 persons enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Virginia ranked

it was enumerated in the first Federal census.

According to the new urban definition, Virginia had 1,560,115 persons living in urban terThe
ritory and 1,758,565 in rural territory.
urban population accounted for 47.0 percent of
the population of the State.
In 1950 there were 100 counties and 27
cities independent of the counties in Virginia.
Of the 100 counties, 62 increased in population
between 1940 and 1950. Five counties, Arlington,
Fairfax, Norfolk, Princess Anne, and Warwick,
more than doubled in population. Of the 27 independent cities, all but Clifton Forge had popThe most rapid rate of increase

among the independent cities was experienced by
Falls Church, which nearly tripled in population.
The counties in Virginia ranged in size from

than independent cities ranged in size from
McDowell town with a population of 107 to
Pulaski town with a population of 9,202.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,1 and villages; (b) the densely

effort was made to avoid some of the more obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
under special rules.
Even with theserules,
howev
many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory.
To improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorAll the
porated places outside urban fringes.
population residing in urban-fringe areas and in
unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classifieias urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or
Consemore are urban in their own right.)
quently, the special rules of the old definition
are no longer necessary.
According to the new urban definition, the
1950 urban population of Virginia consisted of
the following components: (1) The 1,200,495 in-

habitants of the 62 incorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more; (2) the 87,900 inhabitants
of the 16 specially delineated unincorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and (3) the

Norfolk, Portsmouth, Richmond, Roanoke, and tlio

D. C., in territory outside of incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more.
Under the
old definition, there was one place urban under
special rule in Virginia, Arlington County. (The
population of Arlington County is urban under
the new definition because the entire county is

urban population under the old definition, therefore, consisted of the population of the 62

FOR RELEASE

ADVANCE REPORTS
Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF WASHINGTON:

Series PC-8, No. 46

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population,figures for selected areas in each State.
In this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as
final figures for other States become available)
The total population of Washington on
April 1, 1950, was 2,378,963, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 642,772, or
37.0 percent, over the 1,736,191 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940. Among the States, Washington
ranked twenty-third in population.
The 1950
population was nearly 100 times as large as the
Amppulation in 1870, when the present area of the
Wate was first separately enumerated in a Federal census.
According to the new urban definition,
Washington had 1,503,166 persons living in urban
territory in 1950 and 875,797 in rural territory.
The urban population comprised 63.2 percent of the total population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950,33 of the 39 counties
in Washington increased in population.
More
than one-third of the population gain of the
State was accounted for by King County, which
had an increase of 228,012. The second and third
most populous counties in the State--Pierce and
Spokane--had gains in excess of 50,000.
Benton
County, the population of which more than quadrupled between 1940 and 1950, had the most rapid
rate of growth of all the counties in the United
States.
The counties in Washington ranged in
size from Garfield with a population of 3,204 to
?.ing with a population of 732,992.
There were 238 places incorporated as cities
or towns in Washington in 1950 and 23 unincor:Drated places of 1,000 inhabitants or more. Of
the 1,422,983 inhabitants of the incorporated
*aces, 148,831 were in the 183 places of fewer
.2.-

a.

than 2,500 inhabitants.
There were 75,483 persons living in the 23 unincorporated places,
18,600 of whom were in the 12 places of 1,000
to 2,500 inhabitants.
The incorporated places
ranged in size from Hatton town with a population of 42 to Seattle city with a population of
467,591.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, the urban population
comprises all persons living in (a) places of
2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities,
boroughs, towns,' and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated and unincorporated areas, around cities of
50,000 or more; and (c) unincorporated places of
2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban
fringe. The remaining population is classified
According to the urban definition
as rural.
used in previous censuses, the urban population
comprised all persons living in incorporated
places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas
(usually minor civil divisions) classified as
urban under special rules relating to population
size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants
or more.
A definition of urban territory restricted to such places, however, would exclude
a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorpoUnder the old definition, an
rated places.

1 Except in New England, New York, and Wisconsin,
where "towns" are minor civil divisions of counties and
are not necessarily densely settled centers like the
towns in other States.

- 2 effort was made to avoid some of the more. obvious
omissions by the inclusion of the places urban
under special rules.
Even with these rules,
however, many large and closely built-up places
were excluded from the urban territory.
To inprove the situation In the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorporated places outside urban fringes.
All the
population residing in urban-fringe areas and in
unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is classified as urban according to the 1950 definition.
(Of course, the incorporated places of 2,500 or
more are urban in their own right.)
qpnsequently, the special rules Of the old definition
are no longer necessary.

According to the new urban definition, the.
1950 urban population of Washington included the
following components:
(1) The 1,274,152 inhabitants of the 55 incorporated places of 2,500 or
more; (2) the 56,883 inhabitants of the 11
specially delineated unincorporated places of
2,500 or more; (3) the 172,131 persons living in
other territory included in the urban-fringe
areas of Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma, and the Washington part of the urban fringe of Portland,
Oreg.
Since there were no places urban under
V
special rule in Washington according to the old
definition, the population of the first element
comprised the population under the old definition. The population of the remaining elements-229,014—represents the gain in urban population
due to the change in definition.

FOR RELEASE

ADVANCE REPORTS

May 21, 1951

Washington 25, D. C.

POPULATION OF WEST VIRGINIA:

Series PC-8, ho. 49 Rev.

APRIL 1, 1950

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State. In
this series, reports are numbered alphabetically by States.
Additional reports will be issued as final
figures for other States become available)

The total population of West Virginia on
April 1, 1950, was 2,005,552, according to final
figures for the State released today by Roy V.
Peel, Director, Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce. During the previous 10 years, the
population of the State increased by 103,578, or
5.4 percent, over the 1,901,974 inhabitants
enumerated in 1940.
Among the States, West
Virginia ranked twenty-ninth in population. The
present population of West Virginia is about 36
times as large as its population 160 years ago
when the territory which now comprises the State
was first enumerated in a Federal census.

•

West Virginia has always been a State with
the preponderance of its population living in
rural territory.
According to the new urban
definition, West Virginia had an urban population
of 694,487 and a rural population of 1,311,065.
The urban population comprised 34.6 percent of
the total population of the State.
Between 1940 and 1950, 27 of West Virginia's
55 counties gained population and 28 lost population.
Of the counties which lost population,
all but 2 were predominantly rural, and 19 had
no urban population at all.
The counties of
West Virginia ranged in size from Wirt with a
population of 5,119 to Kanawha with a population
of 239,629.
West Virginia bad a total of 214 incorporated places and 77 unincorporated places of
1,000 inhabitants or more.
These places ranged
in size from Montrose town with a population of
79 to Huntington city with a population of
The 214 incorporated places contained
86,353.
800,991 inhabitants, or 39.9 percent of the
total population of the State. Of these places,

54 had 2,500 inhabitants or more and a combined
population of 640,606.
The population of the 7
unincorporated places of 2,500 or more was
29,506, and the combined population of the 70
smaller unincorporated places was 103,154.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban population comprises all persons living in (a) places of 2,50C
inhabitants or more incorporated as cities, boroughs, towns,I and villages; (b) the densely
settled urban fringe, including both incorporated
and unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000
or more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500
inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe.
The remaining population is classified as rural.
According to the definition used in previous
censuses, urban population comprises all persons
living in incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and areas (usually minor civil
divisions) classified as urban under special
rules relating to population size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants Or

a number of equally large and densely settled
places, merely because they were not incorporated places.

omissions by the inclusion of the places urban

- 2 were excluded from the urban territory.
To
improve the situation in the 1950 Census, the
Bureau of the Census set up, in advance of
enumeration, boundaries for urban-fringe areas
around cities of 50,000 or more and for unincorporated places outside urban fringes.
All
the population residing in urban-fringe areas
and in unincorporated places of 2,500 or more is

2,500 or more; (3) the 24,375 persons living in
the incorporated places under 2,500 and unincorporated territory in the urban fringes of
Charleston, Wheeling, and Huntington. Since the
first element comprises the urban population
under the old urban definition, the aggregate
population of the remaining elements--53,881-represents the net gain in the West Virginia
urban population which resulted from the change
in definition.

Consequently, the special rules of the
old definition are no longer necessary.

inhabitants or more; (2) the 15,178 inhabit
ants of the 4 specially delineated unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more; and
(3) 66,347 persons living outside of incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more in the
urban fringes of Madison, Milwaukee, Racine, and
the Wisconsin part of the urban fringe of Duluth
(Minn.)--Superior (Wis.). As there were no places
urban under special rule according to the old
definition in Wisconsin, the population of the
first element comprised the urban population
under the old definition. The population of the
remaining elements--81,525--represents the gain
in the urban population which resulted from the
change in definition.

(This is one of a series of reports presenting final population figures for selected areas in each State.

The total population of Wyoming on April 1,

population of the State increased by 39,787, or
15.9 percent, over the 250,742 inhabitants enumerated in 1940. Among the States and the District of Columbia, Wyoming ranked forty-eighth
in population. The present population of Wyoming
is about 32 times as large as its population
80 years ago when it was first enumerated in a
Federal census.

been predominantly rural. In 1950, however, the

of a 54.5 percent increase in the urban population and a decline of 7.2 percent in the rural
population between 1940 and 1950, the proportion
of the population of the State living in urban
territory rose from 37.3 to 49.8 percent.
Between 1940 and 1950, 15 of Wyoming's 23
counties gained population and 8 lost population.
Of the counties which lost population, all but
two had no urban population. The counties of
Wyoming ranged in size from Teton with a population of 2,593 to Laramie with a population of
47,662. Yellowstone National Park, the greater
part of which is in Wyoming, is independent of
any county organization.

Valley, the only unincorporated place, was 1,821.
Under the urban definition established for
use in the 1950 Census, urban territory has been
defined to comprise (a) places of 2,500 inhabitants or more incorporated as cities, boroughs,
towns,' and villages; (b) the densely settled
urban fringe, including both incorporated and
unincorporated areas, around cities of 50,000 or
more; and (c) unincorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more outside any urban fringe. All
other territory is classified as rural. According to the definition used in previous censuses,
urban territory was designated as all incorporated places of 2,500 inhabitants or more and
areas (usually minor civil divisions) classified
as urban under special rules relating to population size and density.
In both definitions, the most important
component of the urban territory is the group of
incorporated places having 2,500 inhabitants or
more. A definition of urban territory restricted
to such places, however, would exclude a number
of equally large and densely settled places,
merely because they were not incorporated places.
Under the old definition, an effort was made to
avoid some of the more obvious omissions by the
inclusion of the places urban under special

final verified population totals. The final

population total for any given place may
differ from the preliminary count as the
result of reallocating to that place any
of its residents who were enumerated in
other places.
The count may also differ
as the result of reallocation of crews of
vessels docked in the place who were not
included in the preliminary count, because
of the reallocation of certain groups of
persons to areas in the United States, its
Territories or possessions, and because of
other revisions.
