What if I cant find the address with the Street
Address Search? This would happen if the address
did not exist when the 2000 Census was taken.
10
First, find the address on a street or road map
or Google Maps to get a general idea about where
it is located. Then use the Reference Maps in
American FactFinder to find the census tract
number for that address.
