About the Tribal Area

State-recognized Choctaw group in Mississippi. Because there is no single federal reservation footprint in the Census tribal-area geography, broadband planning is typically tied to dispersed households, county road access, and nearby regional infrastructure.

Tribal Area Description

Clifton Choctaw is a State-designated tribal statistical area (SDTSA), a Census statistical geography identified for a state-recognized tribe or community rather than a federally recognized reservation land base. Boundary records for Clifton Choctaw show about 48.8 square miles (31,233 acres) for this state-designated statistical area, centered near latitude 31.3182378 and longitude -92.8646068. FCC BDC provider counts are not fully populated for this code in the local dataset, so current service inventory should be validated before relying on deployment comparisons.
