The HUBZone Program is based on a geographical designation. Are there differences in these geographical assignments and approximately how many current locations are there for each?
There are three HUBZone categories — Urban, Rural and Native American:- • Urban = Metropolitan Area Census Tracts (HUD) – 7,000 total in U.S. • Rural = Non-metropolitan Counties – 900 total in U.S • Rural designation results when median household income is less than 80% of the non-metropolitan state level (Census) • Rural designation can also occur when analysis shows an unemployment rate that is not less than 140% of the state-wide average (BLS) • Native American = All federally recognized Indian reservations as defined by external boundary – exceeds 340 total in U.S.
