‘‘tribal jurisdic- tion statistical areas’’ of the 1990 census. The U.S. Census Bureau first provided data for the former Oklahoma reservations in conjunction with the 1980 census, when it defined a single all- encompassing geographic entity called the ‘‘Historic Areas of Oklahoma (excluding urbanized areas).’’ Each OTSA is assigned a national four-digit census code ranging from 5500 through 5999 based on the alphabetical sequence of each OTSA’s name, except that the joint use areas appear at the end of the code

PUERTO RICO The U.S. Census Bureau treats the Commonwealth <span class="highlight">of</span> Puerto Rico as the <span class="highlight">statistical</span> equivalent <span class="highlight">of</span> a state for data presentation purposes. Each state and statistically equivalent entity is assigned a two-<span class="highlight">digit</span> Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) code <span class="highlight">in</span> alphabetical order by state name, followed <span class="highlight">in</span> alphabetical order by Puerto Rico and the Island Areas.

Urbanized Area (UA) An urbanized area (UA) consists <span class="highlight">of</span> densely settled territory that contains 50,000 or more people. The U.S. Census Bureau delineates UAs to provide a better separation <span class="highlight">of</span> urban and rural territory, population, and housing <span class="highlight">in</span> the vicinity <span class="highlight">of</span> large places. For Census 2000, the UA criteria were extensively revised and the delineations were performed <span class="highlight">using</span> a zero-based <span class="highlight">approach</span>. Because <span class="highlight">of</span> more stringent density requirements, some territory that was classified as urbanized for the 1990

&reg; TABULATION AREA (ZCTA&trade;) A ZIP Code&reg; tabulation area (ZCTA&trade;) is a <span class="highlight">statistical</span> geographic entity that approximates the deliv- ery area for a U.S. Postal Service five-<span class="highlight">digit</span> or three-<span class="highlight">digit</span> ZIP Code. ZCTAs are aggregations <span class="highlight">of</span> cen- sus blocks that have the same predominant ZIP Code associated with the residential mailing addresses <span class="highlight">in</span> the U.S. Census Bureau&rsquo;s Master Address File. Three-<span class="highlight">digit</span> ZCTA codes are applied to large contiguous areas for which the U.S. Census Bureau does not have five-<span class="highlight">digit</span> ZIP Code infor- mation <span class="highlight">in</span>
