Note: The April 1, 2000 Population Estimates Base reflects changes to the Census 2000 population resulting from legal boundary updates as of January 1 of the estimates year, other geographic program changes, and Count Question Resolution actions. All geographic boundaries for the July 1, 2007 population estimates series are defined as of January 1, 2007. An "(X)" in the Census 2000 field indicates a locality that was formed or incorporated after Census 2000 or was erroneously omitted from Census 2000. Additional information on these localities can be found in the Geographic Change Notes (see "Boundary Changes" under the Geographic Topics section of the Estimates page).
