Data tabulations by incorporatedplace will include all territory within the incorporatedplace, while the tabulation for the incorporatedplace within a consolidated city is only for part of the incorporatedplace.
An incorporatedplace is established to provide governmental functions for a concentration of people as opposed to a minor civil division, which generally is created to provide services or administer an area without regard, necessarily, to population.
