Community Development Block Grant Grantee Areas

Community Development Block Grant Grantee Areas This National Geospatial Data Asset (NGDA) dataset, shared as a Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) feature layer, displays Community Development Block Grant Grantee Areas. Per HUD, “Established in 1974, the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program provides annual grant funding to local and state governments to address a wide range of unique community development needs. HUD determines the amount of each grant by using a formula comprised of several measures of community need, including the extent of poverty, population, housing density, age of housing, and population growth relative to other metropolitan areas.” Denton, TX (Entitlement Grantee - Metropolitan Cities, Central City), Tarrant, TX (Entitlement Grantee - Urban Counties) & Texas Nonentitlement, TX (State Grantee) Data currency: current federal service (Community Development Block Grant Grantee Areas) NGDAID: 81 (HUD Entitlement Grantee Jurisdiction - National Geospatial Data Asset (NGDA)) OGC API Features Link: Not available For more information: CDBG: Community Development Block Grant Programs Support Documentation: DD CDBG Grantee Areas (Data Dictionary download) For feedback please contact: [e-mail] NGDA Data Set This data set is part of the NGDA Governmental Units, and Administrative and Statistical Boundaries Theme Community. Per the Federal Geospatial Data Committee (FGDC), this theme is defined as the "boundaries that delineate geographic areas for uses such as governance and the general provision of services (e.g., states, American Indian reservations, counties, cities, towns, etc.), administration and/or for a specific purpose (e.g., congressional districts, school districts, fire districts, Alaska Native Regional Corporations, etc.), and/or provision of statistical data (census tracts, census blocks, metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas, etc.). Boundaries for these various types of geographic areas are either defined through a documented legal description or through criteria and guidelines. Other boundaries may include international limits, those of federal land ownership, the extent of administrative regions for various federal agencies, as well as the jurisdictional offshore limits of U.S. sovereignty. Boundaries associated solely with natural resources and/or cultural entities are excluded from this theme and are included in the appropriate subject themes."
