Hierarchy Diagrams

The standard hierarchy of census geographic entities displays the relationships between legal, administrative, and statistical boundaries maintained by the U.S. Census Bureau. The hierarchy provides a quick and easy way to see how the different geographic entities at the Census Bureau relate to one another.

It depicts relationships with a line and shows where relationships do not exist by displaying entities on different line tracts.
