Census Regions and Divisions Counties (and equivalents) Minor Civil Divisions Legally defined county subdivisions are referred to as minor civil divisions (MCDs.) MCDs are the primary divisions of a county. They comprise both governmentally functioning entities that is, those with elected officials who provide services and raise revenues and nonfunctioning entities that exist primarily for administrative purposes, such as election districts. Twenty-eight states and Puerto Rico have MCDs. However, the MCDs function as general purpose governmental units in all or part of only twenty states. Within these twenty states, PEP produces estimates for all governmentally functioning MCDs and for nonfunctioning MCDs in counties that contain at least one functioning MCD.

Half of the country lies less than 152 meters (500 ft.) above sea level, and the highest point is 883 meters (2,900 ft.). The 537-kilometer (334-mi.) coastline is mostly a low, sandy shore backed by plains and scrub and intersected by several rivers and streams, most of which are navigable only by canoe. A tropical rain forest belt, broken by heavily forested hills and many streams and rivers, extends northward from the shore, near the Cote d'Ivoire frontier. This area, known as the "Ashanti," produces most of the country's cocoa, minerals, and timber. North of this belt, the country varies from 91 to 396 meters (300-1,300 ft.) above sea level and is covered by low bush, parklike savanna, and grassy plains.

Advanced Search/Archive Saturday September 24, 2005 USINFO Publications An Outline of American Geography MAP CHAPTER 15 THE NORTH PACIFIC COAST C old, clear mountain streams tumble down rock-strewn courses. The destination: a rugged, unused coastline where precipitous, fog-enshrouded cliffs rise out of pounding surf. Mountains are visible in the distancelofty, majestic, covered with snow. Tall needleleaf evergreens cover the land between with a mantle of green. Cities, where they exist, give the impression that they are new. This is America's North Pacific Coast, or more popularly, the Pacific Northwest ( Map 14 : 25K)the coastal zone that stretches from northern California through coastal Canada to southern Alaska. An important element of its regional character is the North Pacific Coast's relative isolation from the rest of America. Less than 3 percent of the American population lives there. Populated sections of the region are separated from the other principal population centers by substantial distances of arid or mountainous terrain. Residents of the region often view this isolation as positive, a geographic buffer against the rest of the world. Economically, however, it has been a hindrance. High transportation costs inflate the price of Pacific Northwest products in distant eastern markets and discourage some manufacturers from locating in the region. THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT The North Pacific Coast is defined primarily on the basis of its physical environment. Stated very simply, it is a region strongly subject to maritime influence and rugged terrain. Precipitation is high, and vegetation associated with heavy moisture is located near the coast but with marked variation over short distances because of the influence of surrounding mountains on the region's climate.

The United States owes much of its national character and its wealth to its good fortune in having such a large and varied landmass to inhabit and cultivate. Yet the country still exhibits marks of regional identity, and one way Americans cope with the size of their country is to think of themselves as linked geographically by certain traits, such as New England self-reliance, southern hospitality, midwestern wholesomeness, western mellowness. This chapter examines American geography, history, and customs through the filters of six main regions: New England , made up of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. The Middle Atlantic , comprising New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland. The South , which runs from Virginia south to Florida and west as far as central Texas. This region also includes West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, and parts of Missouri and Oklahoma. The Midwest , a broad collection of states sweeping westward from Ohio to Nebraska and including Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, parts of Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, and eastern Colorado.

Photographs, maps, index. 1,088 pages. $75.00 cloth, $35.00 paper. Reviewed by Alexander B. Murphy University of Oregon, Eugene F or more than seventy-five years, Oregon Geographic Names has been a valued reference work for those interested in the history and geography of Oregon. The book offers brief descriptions of Oregon's cities, towns, railroad stations, lakes, mountains, valleys, streams, islands, and more, together with whatever information the compilers could find about the most commonly used names ascribed to those places since the period of Euro-American settlement. (Some of these names are of Native American origin, but the book does not include the names given by Native peoples to many of Oregon's places and features.) Each edition has been more comprehensive and more detailed than its predecessor, and the seventh edition is no exception. Weighing in at well over a thousand pages, it offers a remarkably wide-ranging survey of Oregon's nooks and crannies. Oregon Geographic Names: the inclusion of a remarkable CD with interactive maps, a search function that allows users to find place-names on the map of Oregon, and a comprehensive index of places and biographic names. Curiously, this feature of the book could easily be missed by a reader not paying close attention. The only mention of it appears in a couple of sentences at the very end of the preface, and the CD itself is tucked away in a hard-to-open sleeve inside the back cover. If you were to miss this feature, however, you would be missing an invaluable complement to the written text.
