Guess I need to renew my subscription to the Nation on the basis of this article.
It’s just unbelievable what this country has done to the young men and women of its armed forces.

One way to select various features in Arcmap
I wanted to figure out if it was new residents or old residents living in a particular part of the city in 1960.
1. Click on selection in tools
2. Highlight all the census tracts you want. Be careful because some tracts will appear to be highlighted when they are not.
3. In TOC, right click on layer.
4. Click on selection, then create layer from selected features.
5. You can export this layer from there as a separate .dbf. I’m not sure how the shapefile works, i.e., does it stay attached ? (No, it doesn’t).
