List of census-designated places in Indiana facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Did you know that in the U.S., some places are like towns but don't have their own official local government? These special communities are called census-designated places or CDPs for short. They are areas that the U.S. Census Bureau defines for gathering information about people and populations.

CDPs help us understand how many people live in different areas, even if those areas aren't officially incorporated as cities or towns. They are often places where many people live close together, but they might be part of a larger county instead of having their own mayor or town council.

This list shows you many of the CDPs found in the state of Indiana. Each CDP is listed with the county or counties it belongs to. Counties are like smaller regions within a state, helping to organize local services and government.
