blokgrupper

Blokgrupper, also known as block groups, are a type of administrative division used in some countries, particularly in the United States. They are smaller than census tracts and are used for statistical purposes, such as the decennial census. Blokgrupper are typically defined by their geographic boundaries and are used to collect and analyze demographic data. They are often used in conjunction with other geographic units, such as census tracts and block faces, to provide a more detailed and accurate picture of a population. Blokgrupper are also used for other purposes, such as redistricting and the allocation of federal funds. The term "blokgruppe" is derived from the Norwegian word for "block group," reflecting the country's historical ties to the United States. Blokgrupper are an important tool for understanding and managing populations, and their use continues to evolve as new technologies and methods of data collection become available.
