CENSUS FILE FOR USE WITH HMDA/CRA
2010 DEMOGRAPHICS
- File is for HMDA/CRA processing year:2015
- Number of records: 75880
- Census tract numbers for the entire nation, Puerto Rico and four Island Areas are represented on this file.
- Census tract numbers are from the 2010 Census Demographics.
- The Census Bureau released the summary files for the four Island Areas (Guam, US Virgin Islands, etc.)in June 2013. Therefore, the 2015 FFIEC Census File includes demographics for the Islands areas necessary for CRA/HMDA purposes.
- The Census Bureau released the Urban/Rural block level data in September 2012. Therefore, the2015 FFIEC Census Fileincludes the Urban/Rural flag.
- Metropolitan Statistical Area/Metropolitan Division (MSA/MD) definitions are for the edit processing year indicated.
- Small counties are counties with a population of no more than 30,000. Small counties have 999999 in the census tract field and ‘S’ in the Small County Flag field. The individual tracts are also represented in this file for small counties and are flagged ‘S’. Island Area tracts are flagged ‘I’.
- If theDemographic Data Flagcontains an ‘X’, the persons/population and/or median family income (tract level) is zero or data were suppressed by the Census bureau for reasons of confidentiality. Island Area tracts contain ‘I’ in this flag.
- Principal Cities are indicated in the 2015 FFIEC Census data release. Principal City definitions are dependent on Office of Management and Budget data adopted in the 2015 Census file.
- What in previous data releases had been known as HUD Estimated Median Family Income is now known as FFIEC Estimated Median Family Income.
- Median incomes within MSA/MD boundaries are the MSA/MD Median Family Incomes. Those median incomes outside of MSA/MDs (MSA/MD=99999) are the Median Family Incomes for non-metro areas of the state.
- Starting with 2012, the FFIEC Census File uses the 2006-2010 American Community Survey (ACS) for the majority of its demographic fields, with selected 2010 Census Summary File 1 tables used for population related fields. This contrasts to previous years when the FFIEC Census used Census 2000 Summary File 3 and Summary File 1 data as the basis for the file.
Instructions on performing edit verifications of MSA/MD /state/county/tract combinations:
- The MSA/MD code will equal99999 if the state/county/tract falls outside of a Metropolitan Statistical Area/Metropolitan Division.
- Refer to the HMDA or CRA edits to understand the logic of verifying geographic code combinations. The edit logic for HMDA and CRA differ slightly. (The edits may be obtained by calling the HMDA Assistance Line at (202) 452-2016 and/or the CRA Assistance Line at (202) 872-7584. You may also request a copy via electronic mail at and/ or via Internet at and/or
Notes:
Geographic and other changes in the 2015 FFIEC Census File:
- On February 28, 2013 OMB released the revised delineations of Metropolitan Statistical Areas. The revised MSA/MDdelineations apply to HMDA and CRA data collected on or after January 1, 2014. The delineations were initially incorporated in the 2014 FFIEC Census file and will continue to be used in the 2015 FFIEC Census file and forward.
- Because of the implementation of the new OMB delineations, the FFIEC has recalculated the FFIEC Estimated MSA/MD (or Statewide Non-Metro) Median Family Income in the cases where a boundary change has occurred, using a similar methodology as was used in the 2014 FFIEC Census file. See FFIEC Estimated Medians section in the Appendix for more details.
- The following county changes are adopted in the 2015 FFIEC Census file:
- Alaska Counties:
- Changed county name for Alaska county (state 02, county 195) from "Petersburg Census Area" to "Petersburg Borough".
- Please note that although there were fluctuations in the tract boundaries for other Alaskan counties listed on the Census County changes website ( there were no actual changes in the county or tract codes.
- Virginia Counties:
- Bedford (independent) city, Virginia (state 51, county 515) changed to town status and was added to Bedford County (state 51, county 019).
- Removed Bedford (independent) city, Virginia small county record (state 51, county 515, tract 999999)
Beginning 2004, Census race category “Some Other Race” is no longer collected for HMDA. “Some Other Race” should be added into the category “Two or More Races” for HMDA reports.
Beginning 2003, OMB's civil rights monitoring guidelines are used with HMDA reports.
All of the 366underwater tracts (tract =990000 and tract not equal to 999999) are included on this file.

There are no split tracts in the 2015FFIEC Census File.
For HMDA purposes, it is optional for a HMDA reporter to code census tract numbers or ‘NA’ for small counties. If an institution is both a HMDA and CRA reporter, refer to the census tract reporting section in Appendix A of the HMDA Getting It Right Guide.
For CRA purposes, 1998 was the first year that a CRA reporter could code census tracts in any county as ‘NA’. This option is used if the business or farm can only provide a Rural Route or P.O. Box for its address and the institution is not able to determine a geocode based on the information provided.
American Samoa, Guam, The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands are not valid for HMDA purposes (used for CRA reporting only). Population and housing data for these Island Areas are included. The Island Areas use different surveys than the U.S.; therefore, population and housing items may come from different census table numbers. The list below shows these items and their corresponding census tables.
