This article shows U.S. Census totals for Washington County, Maine, broken down by municipality, from 1900 to 2000. There are two types of incorporated municipalities in Maine, towns and cities. The tables below differentiate between towns and cities. Most areas of New England are entirely divided into incorporated municipalities, with no unincorporated territory. In the three northern New England states, however, some unincorporated territory does exist, generally in areas that are very sparsely populated. Maine contains significantly more unincorporated territory than the other states, with the bulk of it in interior and northern counties, including Washington County. Some unincorporated territory in Maine is organized into a third type of town-level municipality unique to Maine, called a plantation (considered to be “organized”, but not incorporated), while some is entirely unorganized. Washington County also contains two Indian reservations, which are considered to be distinct entities independent from any municipality, although this has not always been the case in the past. Due to the large extent of unincorporated territory in Washington County, separate sections with detailed historical census totals for such areas follow the main tables below. For any census, adding up the totals for each town-level municipality, including any plantations, unorganized entities and Indian reservations (when recognized as independent entities), should yield the county total. For more information on the New England municipal system, see New England town. ==Corporate changes since 1900== *1924 – Forest City disincorporated and reverted to unorganized territory *1925 – New town of Beals formed from Jonesport *1938 – Edmunds disincorporated; may have been briefly subsequently organized as plantation, but ultimately reverted to unorganized territory *1939 – Marion disincorporated and reverted to unorganized territory *1940 – Topsfield disincorporated and reverted to unorganized territory; subsequently organized as a plantation, but later reverted to unorganized territory *1942 – Baring disincorporated and reverted to unorganized territory *1942 – Brookton disincorporated; may have been briefly subsequently organized as plantation, but ultimately reverted to unorganized territory *1945 – Trescott disincorporated and reverted to unorganized territory *1960 – Topsfield re-incorporated as a town *2004 – Centerville disincorporated and reverted to unorganized territory 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Historical United States Census totals for Washington County, Maine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
