County outlines: Census Bureau 2024 cartographic boundaries (1:500,000, simplified). Cities and towns: every incorporated place and Census Designated Place in the 2024 Gazetteer, shown at its internal point and assigned to the county that point falls in (a city spanning several counties is listed once). Populations: ACS (Census 2024 Gazetteer; ACS 2019–2023 5-year estimates). Map tiles: OpenStreetMap.

Where the map comes from
County outlines are the Census Bureau's 2024 cartographic boundary files at 1:500,000, simplified for the web and drawn over OpenStreetMap tiles.
Cities and towns are every incorporated place and Census Designated Place in the Census 2024 Gazetteer, drawn at the internal point the Bureau publishes. Each place is assigned to the county that contains that point, so a city that spans several counties is listed under one of them.
Populations are American Community Survey 2019–2023 five-year estimates.
Frequently asked questions
Why is a city listed in only one county?
Each place is assigned by its internal point. Cities like Kansas City or Atlanta cross county lines; they appear under the county holding that point.
Can I print it?
Use your browser's print. For printable blank county maps, see the blank maps section.
Why are some places unincorporated?
Census Designated Places are named communities without a city government; they are included unless you raise the population filter.
Is Connecticut by county?
Since 2022, Connecticut's Census county-equivalents are nine planning regions, which are what the map shows.
Does it include Puerto Rico?
Yes, its 78 municipios.
