PUMAs are non-overlapping, statistical geographic areas that partition each state or equivalent entity into geographic areas containing between 100,000 and 200,000 people following specific criteria and guidelines. The Census Bureau defines PUMAs for the tabulation and dissemination of the decennial census data, the American Community Survey (ACS), Puerto Rico Community Survey period estimates, and the Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) data. The Census Bureau uses PUMAs to collect sample records of housing units with information on the characteristics of each unit and each person while preserving confidentiality.

For questions about this request, you may contact the PUMA team at <geo.puma@census.gov>. Thank you for your response to this request.
