URBANIZED AREA MAPS

The five urbanized areas located in Illinois, for which statistics are shown in table 9, are depicted in the following maps. The shaded areas, in combination, comprise the urbanized areas. To assist in locating the exact external boundaries of the areas, each

boundary feature (street segment, political boundary, or other) has been assigned a number. The boundary segments thus numbered are shown on the map and the features t;o which they apply are presented in the following key.
