- Abstract
- U.S. Counties represents the counties of the United States in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
- Purpose
- U.S. Counties provides detailed boundaries that are consistent with the tract and state data sets and are effective at regional and state levels.

- Data Quality Information
- Logical Consistency Report
- No duplicate features are present. The shapefile is converted to SDC (Smart Data Compression) format in ArcSDE®. This verifies and validates the geometry.
- Completeness Report
- After processing, the data set is checked for drawing display and number of records and file sizes compared with source materials.
- Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
- The geospatial part of this data set was extracted from the 2002 Census TIGER/Line® files. The positional accuracy of the TIGER/Line coordinates varies with the source materials used but at best meets the established National Map Accuracy standards (+/- 167 feet approximately) where 1:100,000-scale maps from the USGS are the source. The Census Bureau cannot specify the accuracy of feature updates added by its field staff or of features derived from the GBF/DIME-Files or other map sources. Thus, the level of positional accuracy in the TIGER/Line files is not suitable for high-precision measurement applications such as engineering problems, property transfers, or other uses that might require highly accurate measurements of the earth's surface.

- Entity Type Definition
- A type of governmental unit that is the primary legal subdivision of every U.S. State. In Alaska (borough) and Louisiana (parish) they have different names. In Puerto Rico there are no first-order administrative divisions as defined by the US Government, but there are 78 municipalities (municipios, singular - municipio) at the second order.
