The bureau recognizes four census regions within the United States, and further organizes them into nine divisions. These regions are groupings of states that subdivide the United States for the presentation of data. They should not be construed as necessarily being thus grouped owing to any geographical, historical, or cultural bonds.
US Census Regions
Region 1: Northeast
* Division 1: New England
* Division 2: Middle Atlantic
Region 2: Midwest
* Division 3: East North Central
* Division 4: West North Central
Region 3: South
* Division 5: South Atlantic
* Division 6: East South Central
* Division 7: West South Central
Region 4: West
* Division 8: Mountain
* Division 9: Pacific
In the last decade, the Census Bureau has begun to rank the states of the Union in qualitative terms based on their quantitative figures so that people can more easily understand the changing dynamics of the country. The goal of this effort is to stir up national pride and understanding along with governmental participation at the state and federal level.
