Dear Representative Ballance:

At your request, r am enclosing copies of census data forWake, Durham, Meklenburg and- Forsytfr coirnties and under s"p..it.cover _maps for wake, llecklenburg ind Forsyth counties. Data and
Taps for Nash, Edgecombe and wilson counties are still beingdeveloped, and maps of Durham County will be available tomorrow.

P1ease note the following about the data:
(1) In Mecklenburg County, census block data was convertedto precinct tabulations-by the charlotte-Meckrenburg pranning

Department in.early L982 at the request of the Meckienburg c5untyBoard of commissioners, and updated by our staff in Februiry of'L984 to reflect changes in precinct b6undaries through ,lanuiry31, 1994.

(21 In Forsyth County, census block data was converted toprecinct tabulatigls by the Winston-Salem Forsyth planning Boardin February of 1984 at the request of the laayoi of Winston-Salem.Precinct 12-260-5E_ indicates trrat this area is.in piecinct 60-58but must be counted with Precinct L2-2 because it is an ',island,,within L2-2.

(3) rn wake Qgunty, census 'precinct data for Raleigh wasupdated by our staff in February of L9B4 to reflect chanles inprecinct boundaries from December 31, lgTg through .lanuaiy 31,7984. For: other areas of the county, census ulo6k data wasconverted to precinct tabulations by our staff in February of1984. In several cases, more thll_ir" precinct is listed together(e.9. "Cary 3/4/67r,, t'St. Marys 3/5", ',-St. Marys 4/6", ,,St.
Matihews 2/4", I'Swift Creek L/2"1. In those iistances, a censusblock is contalned j.n more than one precinct, and it-is not

E}G{IBIT A



possible from the census data alone to provide data from a sinqleprecinct alone so the data is lumped together. The island ofRaleigh 16 contained in Meredith is incruded onry in Meredith.

l4l rn Durham county, census block data was converted toprecj-nct tabulations by our staff in February of 1984. rn four
cases in the city of Durham where census blocks were contained intwo preci_ncts, our staff visited the precincts and counted the
number of dwelling units in the censui block in each precinct soas to allocate the population. rn rural precincts, tLis was not
done (see Durham 44/45, Leb/Mang 25/26/2gl.

At your request, copies of the information has also been
supplied to Leslie Winner.
