<1>	The elevation is an estimate for the area around West Baraboo - it will be higher in some places and lower in others.
<2>	Every year, the US Census Bureau creates a population estimate for the preceeding year. Keep in mind that this value is an estimate and not an actual count. The most recent Census estimate is for the year 2019.

The value given by the Census Bureau reflects their statistical (or sampling) requirements.
