2020 Census PUMAs Final

Listed in California Open Data

The Application This application allows comparison of the proposed California 2020 Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMAs) with the 2010 PUMAs.

Description

The boundaries for these PUMAs were delineated based on population counts for California counties and tracts from the 2020 Census. The Demographic Research Unit worked with California State Data Center affiliates and regional organizations to ensure that the PUMAs reflect local communities.

For more information, go to the Census Bureau's 2020 Census PUMA program web page. PUMAs Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMAs) are non-overlapping, statistical geographic areas that partition each state or equivalent entity into geographic areas containing no fewer than 100,000 people each. They cover the entirety of the United States.

The Census Bureau defines PUMAs for the tabulation and dissemination of decennial census and American Community Survey (ACS) Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) data. The delineation of new PUMAs occurs after the completion of the decennial census as part of a program involving the State Data Centers (SDCs). The Census Bureau's PUMA web page contains more details about these areas.

Note that the 2020 and 2010 PUMAs may not overlap exactly as 2020 census tracts were changed from the 2010 census. Source: California Department of Finance, Demographic Research Unit .
