Welcome
Welcome to the approved Adjusted Census Urban Boundary mapping web application. The proposed adjustments done by appropriate local road officials and MDOT were FHWA approved October 31, 2013 and are now the official Adjusted Census Urban Boundaries (ACUB). This web map locator displays the post-2010 Census Urban Areas (CUA or UA) plus the approved proposals. After every decennial US Census, FHWA allows MDOT to work in cooperation with appropriate local officials to adjust outward the UA’s by adding any additional areas (Census Blocks) that meet FHWA/MDOT criteria as urban. The ACUB is used to determine the urban/rural distinction used in reporting and transportation legislation. For more information go to the MDOT Federal-Aid Highways and Urban Areas Statewide Review Webpage.
DISCLAIMER: The ACUB areas are drawn using Census Blocks and do not always align with Michigan Geographic Framework (MGF) roads and jurisdictional boundaries at large scales, every attempt will be made to correctly correlate the Census Blocks to MGF. The post-2010 FHWA approved ACUB areas will be available in MGF version 14.

Layers
The 2011 congressional, State Senate and State House district layers of the map were built from 2010 Census Block information that was incorporated into redistricting legislation enacted by the Legislature (Public Acts 128 and 129 of 2011)
The VTDs were derived from census data and are approximations of local precinct boundaries as they existed at the time of the 2010 General Election, and do not necessarily correspond exactly to actual precinct boundaries as they exist today.
The jurisdiction boundaries were constructed by the Center for Shared Solutions and Technical Partnerships (CSSTP), a division of the Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget. Jurisdiction boundaries and 2001 legislative and congressional district layers were derived from the Michigan Geographic Framework dataset (version 10a). Because of the different sources for these layers, the boundaries may not correspond exactly with 2011 legislative/congressional layers.
Toggle layer visibility by clicking the corresponding checkbox.
