Revision as of 05:22, 16 February 2017

Use the following checklist step-by-step to determine whether the "City" field for a segment should contain a name or be marked as "None" in the states of Alabama, Georgia, and Florida

Note that the discussion that follows DOES NOT apply to "City" field determination for places.


Mailing Address for City field in Waze

NOTE: Mailing addresses alone are not a determining factor for filling in the City field; city limits are. For example, everyone who lives in Leon County has a "Tallahassee, FL" mailing address, but not everyone in Leon County lives within the incorporated city limits of Tallahassee. Most unincorporated county areas should have the City field checked as "None", unless they meet one of the following exceptions.

Start Here

Step 1 : Incorporated Municipality

Is the segment within a city on the list of legally incorporated municipalities? Click the appropriate state link below.

Alabama League of Municipalities
Georgia Municipal Association
Florida League of Cities

Is the city on one of the lists provided above?

YES: Step 1a

NO: Step 2




Step 1a - Verify City Limits

Check if your segment falls within the city limits by using the appropriate state's mapping resources below

Alabama Mapping Resources
Georgia Mapping Resources
Florida Mapping Resources

Is the segment Within the City Limits?

YES:Incorporated

NO: Step 2



Step 2 - Census Designated Place (CDP)

Click the image below for the state you are researching and scroll to the bottom. The list of places includes all Incorporated Cities and all Census Designated Places. You will find CDP after each Census Designated Place. DO NOT assume these boundaries are correct for Incorporated Cities as they may be out of date.

Alabama CDP Maps
Georgia CDP Maps
Florida CDP Maps

Is the CDP listed on the appropriate state's list? If not, is it located here? (Look here before answering no)

YES: Step 2a

NO: Step 3





Step 2a: Determine Geographic Boundaries

The geographic boundaries of CDP's can be viewed in PDF form by selecting the appropriate State, then selecting the correct county on the next page at US Census Bureau 2010 Census Tracts(Places). Alternatively, an overlay of the boundaries can be created for use in WME. One acceptable method for creating this overlay is by following the presentation Overlay CDP's on WME by t0cableguy. The PDF's or the shapefiles provided by the census.gov website are the ONLY approved source for CDP boundaries.

US Census Bureau Reference Maps

US Census Bureau 2010 Census Tracts(Places)

Is the segment within the Census Designated Place selected in Step 2, according to the files listed in Step 2a?

YES: CDP

NO: Step 3





STEP 3 - County Property Appraiser

If you look up a parcel for the segment using the appropriate Property Appraiser's website does it list the target name as a valid address?

Alabama Mapping Resources
Georgia Mapping Resources
Florida Mapping Resources

YES: Step 3a

NO: Step 4





Step 3a: Determine boundaries of target name Try to determine the boundaries for use of that target name by checking subsequent parcels in the area or checking county GIS sites for your state provided below.

Alabama Mapping Resources
Georgia Mapping Resources
Florida Mapping Resources


Is the Target Name listed in one of these resources for the parcels surrounding the segment?

YES: Target Name

NO: Step 4



STEP 4 - Indian Reservations / Government Installations

Is the segment / place located on an Indian Reservation or Government Installation?


YES: Consult

NO: Step 5



STEP 5 - Other Place of Significance.

There are many other Census Designated Places and points of interest throughout the Southeast Regsion, but many are small. Does your target location have a major cultural significance (e.g. tourist attraction, county seat, travel milestone (e.g. Yeehaw Junction))?

YES: Consult

NO: No City
