Census States
The Census Bureau's boundary of every state and the District of Columbia, with each one's land and water area and the Census region and division it belongs to. Use it to draw any state-by-state figure as a map of the whole country, such as a state's growth beside its neighbours', or to outline a state on a map of its own data.
