Census Report
Preliminary 1980 census tract data has been received from Orange County ~A.
In response, to the inquires and data furnished by Gene Snyder, the Regional
Director of the ~lreau of Census re~orted preliminary counts at 13,825 housing
units and 32,252 population.
The preliminary count furnished by the County of Orange shows a count of
13,543 housing units and a population of 33,950.
The total count is as follows:
Single-fmmily residence 5,554
2-4units 1,901

Census data is also available for the county areas within Tustin's sphere of
influence.
Attached is a map showing the census tract boundaries and the city population
within each tract. It becomes readily obvious that the census counts are in
error when it is noted that Tract 75702 indicates 22 single-f, mily residence
and a population of 72 perscms, when there are no residence in this tract
within the incorporated limits. There are other areas where the count is
suspected to be in error. The census data is identified as preliminary and
does not reflect the current population of the city resulting from annexation
in 1980.
