Published by U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Census Bureau, Geography Division, Spatial Data Collection and Products Branch | U.S. Census Bureau, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: April 11, 2026 at 12:48 PM | Dataset Last Updated: January 01, 2012 at 12:00 AM
The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Planning regions are areas in Puerto Rico. They replace the Commercial Regions which were published for the 2007 and earlier economic censuses. Municipios, equivalent to a county, are grouped into 11 planning regions that are unique to Puerto Rico, and are used only to tabulate economic census data. The Economic Census planning region boundaries are as of January 1, 2012.
