Description: This layer shows the extent of city boundaries across Texas. CPA geometry is retained as the authoritative source, while US Census Bureau attributes are added to provide additional context and consistency. City Boundary geometry is generated by CPA using data submitted by local municipalities for sales taxation purposes. Cities that do not currently collect sales tax are not included within this dataset. TxGIO has prepared this basemap dataset to support planning, mapping, and analysis.

Description: This version utilizes a generalized boundary along the coast, which is sometimes necessary for analysis in which it is important to encompass segments of roadways that travel over water. Roadways on bridges or causeways that span intracoastal waterways are not covered by detailed polygons that precisely follow the coastline, therefore a generalized boundary is needed for some types of analysis where it is important to preserve such relationships.This dataset was derived from TxDOT's county boundary layer.Date valid as of: February 2015Publish Date: Fenruary 2015Update Frequency: Static
