KNOW YOUR GEOGRAPHY

Louisiana is mapped by parish.

Parishes are Louisiana’s county-equivalent administrative divisions. Orleans, Jefferson and Plaquemines have separate Census identifiers, including where their boundaries meet along the lower Mississippi River.

The generalized Census source retains coastal and island pieces under the relevant parish. Use a detailed shoreline or wetlands dataset for site-level work.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Louisiana parish map questions.

Why does the Louisiana county map use parishes?

The Census recognizes Louisiana’s parishes as county equivalents. The map uses all 64 official parish identities.

What ID should I use for Orleans Parish?

Use 22071 for Orleans Parish. Use 22051 for neighboring Jefferson Parish. Confirm geographic coverage before joining data labeled only as New Orleans.

How does the map handle the Louisiana coast?

Coastal shapes follow generalized Census cartography. Pieces with the same parish GEOID inherit the same fill.

Can I shade the north and south shores of Lake Pontchartrain separately?

Yes. St. Tammany, Orleans and Jefferson are separately selectable. Choose each parish based on the coverage of your data.

Why can Baton Rouge-area population and migration differ?

The domestic migration rate counts net moves within the United States. Total population change also includes births, deaths and international migration.

Can I map New Orleans neighborhoods here?

This editor colors whole parishes. Choose a neighborhood or tract boundary source for records within Orleans Parish.
