- Abstract Using geographic information systems (GIS), we mapped housing and population counts
from the decennial U.S. Census Data at block group level geography to produce a
spatially explicit dataset for the coterminous U.S. We also overlaid the raw housing
data with the Protected Areas Dataset (PAD version 1.1) to split census block groups
into privately and publicly owned sub-blocks, thereby creating a map that more
accurately locates where people and houses exist in space. This data is useful within a
GIS for mapping and analysis at national, state, and local levels.
- Purpose To provide a spatially detailed national assessment of housing density across the
coterminous U.S. to support research, policy and management, and inquiries into the
effects of housing growth on the environment.
