The population of UGLGs for each eligible urban county and New York town are used in HUD’s allocation of CDBG funds for all entitlement and State CDBG grantees.

The New York town qualification process must be completed prior to the qualification or urban counties so that any town that does not qualify as a metropolitan city will still have an opportunity to participate as part of an urban county.
