Census tracts are small, relatively permanent geographic entities
within counties which are used by the Census Bureau, an agency of the
U.S. Department of Commerce, to collect, organize, tabulate, and present
the results of its decennial censuses. There are eleven census tracts in
Burlington. The boundaries of a number of tracts did change between the
1990 and 2000 censuses.
HUD provides tabulations of the areas within the city where over half
of the residents are living in households whose income is 80% or less of
the area median income. The map below shows the smallest geographic
units – census block groups – at which this income information is
available. Areas in gray are those where more than 50% of the
residents are low- and moderate-income. This information is important to determining whether
activities serving specific areas of the city (as opposed to specific
city residents or the entire city) meet the national objectives of the CDBG Program. The table
below shows the number and
percentage of low- and moderate-income residents within each census
block group in the city.

moderate-income percentages. May be less than the total census count
of population because it excludes certain groups such as students in
dorms.
