| Abstract | This data collection contains selected variables at the tract level from the 1960 Census of Population and Housing. Census tracts are statistical subdivisions, most of which are within Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSAs). Tracts were originally designed to be relatively homogenous with respect to population characteristics, economic status, and living conditions. This table includes some of the census data for Maryland, including tenure and vacancy information and the time period in which the housing was built. Coverage includes the following counties: Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Baltimore City, Caroll, Howard, Prince George's. Data were extracted from 1960Census Tract-Level Data from the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Science Research site. |
| Purpose | This data set was developed to build a historic GIS (1880 to present) for the Baltimore Ecosystem Study Urban Long Term Ecological Research site. |
