CDP boundaries are worse, really, than that. i discovered in working
through boundaries downstate (Rockland and Westchester Counties)
that the Census Bureau had substantially changed a bunch of CDP
boundaries between 2008 and 2013, downsizing a bunch of them
quite a lot.

i thought they were for comparing counts census to census, but now
i really don't know what they're for if the boundaries can change
that much.

the latter, i think. there are parts of the US where the CDP
boundaries do contribute to the map.
