2000 Block Maps (PDF) by Texas Place

The maps listed here are in the Portable Document Format (PDF). To view these files you will need the Adobe^® Acrobat^® Reader Version 4.0 or above, which is available free of charge from the Adobe web site. The maps were created as 33" x 36" sheets, however, the Adobe Reader allows one to pan and zoom within the image on your computer screen.

For each place or statistically equivalent entity, the Census Bureau's block maps show the greatest detail and most complete set of geographic information. These large scale maps depict the smallest geographic entities for which the U.S. Census Bureau presents data - the census block - by displaying the features that form block boundaries and the numbers that identify them. The intent of this map series is to produce a map for each place, on the smallest possible number of map sheets, at the maximum practical scale. The maps show the boundaries, names and codes for American Indian areas/Alaska Native areas/Hawaiian home lands, county sub-divisions, places, voting districts, census tracts, block groups, and census blocks.

Click on the place name to go to the appropriate place sub-directory and download or view on-line the place index map. The place index map will show the place boundaries. It also will have an overlay of a grid of squares. Each square represents the area covered by one of the maps for that place. Using this grid, determine which map or maps cover the area of interest. Within each grid square you will find a map sheet number. This number is also a part of the file name for the PDF file of the map(s). It is in the last three positions before ".pdf". With this information, you can download or view the appropriate maps(s).

NOTE: There may be instances in which the entire place is shown on a single Place Block Map. For these counties, a single map file will appear in the appropriate place sub-directory. Download or view the map on-line. If there is more than one map file in the appropriate sub-directory, download or view the place index map on-line. A place sub-directory also may also have a parent sheet and one or more inset maps. In this case, there is no index sheet. Download or view the parent sheet to identify the inset maps.
