Institutional Grounds
A neighborhood type in the Institutional Districts group, typically frontier.
Not a residential neighborhood type. Institutional Grounds marks institutional campuses — prisons, hospitals and university dormitories, where residents live in group quarters.
Household statistics describe households, and these tracts are counted as group quarters — publishing income or ownership
rates here would be misleading, so they are omitted. The tract count and geography below are meaningful.
