Summary

This tabular data set contains information on historic housing densities for every 10 years from 1940-2010, compiled for two spatial components of the NHDPlus version 2 data suite (NHDPlusv2) for the conterminous United States; 1) individual reach catchments and 2) reach catchments accumulated upstream through the river network. This dataset can be linked to the NHDPlus version 2 data suite by the unique identifier COMID. The source data is from Hammer and others (SILVIS Lab, University of Wisconsin, 2008). The data provided here contains information for eight time periods: 1940, 1950, 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990, 2000, and 2010. The units are housing units per square kilometer. Reach catchment information characterizes data at the local [...]

Purpose

This data set was created by the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) National Water-Quality Assessment Project (NAWQA) which is part of the USGS National Water Quality Program (NWQP). This effort was undertaken to estimate historic housing density information to NHDPlusV2 flowline catchments and upstream river networks to support statistical analysis, map display, and model parameterization.
