USGS - Governmental Unit Boundaries from The National Map

USGS - The National Map Governmental Unit Boundaries data represent major civil areas including States, counties, Territories, Federal and Native American lands, and incorporated places, such as cities and towns. Boundaries data are useful for understanding the extent of jurisdictional or administrative areas for a wide range of applications, including managing resources or responding to natural disasters. Boundaries data also include extents of forest, grassland, park, wilderness, and wildlife areas useful for recreational activities, such as hiking and backpacking. Governmental Unit Boundaries data was acquired from a variety of government sources with minimal editing or review by the USGS to assure proper data integration or adherence to legal descriptions. Please refer to the feature-level metadata for information on the data source. For additional information, go to http://nationalmap.gov/boundaries.html.
