STEP 4:

How to use the American Fact Finder to determine the census tracts in your area. 
 

After clicking the online mapping tool you will be taken to a screen which shows a map of New York.

In the navigation bar on the left side of the screen, click on A street address or ZIP code under Reposition on...

Enter your address or ZIP code and click Go.

In the navigation bar on the left side of the screen, click on Boundries and Features under Change...

To simplify viewing, clear each of the entries (in both columns) EXCEPT for State, 2000 County and 2000 Census Tract. If you would like other data shown (ex: Block, School Districts) click on both corresponding column entries.

Once all desired boundries and features are selected, click Update.

Find a level of zoom that allows you to read the levels of the census tracts, as well as visibility of the street names.
