1930 Enumeration Districts

The Bureau of the Census assigned Enumerators (Census Takers) went from house to house to collect information from residents according to Enumeration Districts (ED).

         For Payette County the number was 38.
Each Enumeration District was further divided in ascending order from west to east using contemporary maps. Each row was given a different number.
         For Payette there were 15 sections. See original maps and descriptions below.
