TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2014, Series Information for the Current Estate State-based Shapefile (U.S. Virgin Islands only)
Estates are subdivisions of the three major islands in the United States Virgin Islands (USVI). The estates have legally defined
boundaries and are much smaller in area than the Census Subdistricts (county subdivisions), but do not necessarily nest within these districts. The
boundaries of the estates are primarily those of the former agricultural plantations that existed at the time Denmark transferred the islands to the
United States in 1917. The names and boundaries of the estates are in common usage by residents and in government administration. The boundaries of
the estates are as of January 1, 2010 and were provided to the Census Bureau by the USVI Office of the Lieutenant Governor. Estates can be found in
the Sub Minor Civil Division (submcd) shapefile for the 2010 and 2011 TIGER/Line products.
