Chapter Title
Centre County Demographics and Travel Patterns The purpose of this chapter is to describe Centre County in terms of demographics, major and minor trip generators, planning and zoning, and travel patterns. This information, when considered relative to the inventory of available transportation modes in Centre County, helps to identify specific areas that present the greatest need for transportation improvements. The large land area of Centre County (almost 1,100 square miles), and the County’s mountain ridges and valleys impact the physical layout of transportation infrastructure. Demographic indicators must also be considered within the context of these geographic attributes. Within this chapter, socioeconomic data at the census tract level from the 2010 US Census, 2009-13 American Community Survey (ACS), and the information from Chamber of Business and Industry of Centre County (CBICC) is presented relative to the following categories: • Population and Density • Vehicle Availability • Income and Poverty • Labor Force and Unemployment • Public Assistance and SSI Income • Educational Attainment • Distribution of Jobs • Distribution of Age 65 and Older Population and Social Security Income • Distribution of Disabled Population • Housing Figure 2, which is a map of census tracts within Centre County, is presented on the following page.

The Central Pennsylvania Conference (EV) 1850-1871 Compiled from the Conference Archives
The Central Pennsylvania Conference (EV) 1850-1871 compiled from the Conference Archives I. Annual Conference Records Because of denominational unions and boundary adjustments, the Central Pennsylvania Conference of the United Methodist Church includes congregations with roots in more than a dozen distinct predecessor conferences. In order to service its constituency, the Conference Archives seeks to acquire and maintain as complete a collection as possible of the journals of these various conferences. Congregations with roots in one of the three primary Methodist Episcopal, United Brethren or Evangelical Association conferences that served central Pennsyl- vania have access to virtually complete conference records and statistics. Even in these instances, however, conference journals can be incomplete. Early journals of all the predecessor denominations list only charge statistics. While they clearly identify the pastor assigned to each charge, they do not provide information about individual churches -- nor do they even identify which churches are on which charges. Hidden within the minutes, however, are specific reports that provide valuable primary source information at the congregational level. Missionary Reports : When conferences began printing their journals, they tried to contain expenses by producing a product that many people would be willing to purchase. Including a detailed report of missionary giving proved to be the key, for people like to see their name in print -- especially when connected with noble causes. Accordingly, many conferences listed the people at each appointment on each charge who contributed to missions -- and often listed the amounts of the individual contributions. These reports not only identify what churches were on what charges, but they also identify which families attended which churches. -
