Herkimer County Census Tract Maps

As with the Oneida County Census tract maps below, these are the 2010 Census maps for Herkimer County. Census tracts are small, relatively permanent statistical subdivisions of a county. Census tracts usually have between 1,200 and 8,000 persons and 480 to 1,600 households.

Knowing where these tracts are helps policymakers, business leaders and the public plan for our future. Below are two maps, one for Herkimer County as a whole, and then a separate map for the swath across the valley, showing the tract level geography that will be in place for the next 10 years.
