See the Rural-urban continuum codes for precise definitions of each code.

3The 2003 Urban influence codes classify metropolitan counties (codes 1 through 2) by size of the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), and nonmetropolitan counties (codes 3 through 12) by the size of the largest city or town and proximity to metro and micro areas. See the Urban influence codes for precise definitions of each code.

4For 1970 and 1980, the share of adults who are college graduates includes those who completed at least four years of college. In 1990 and 2000, the share includes those who received a bachelor's or higher degree.
