This is one of those personal decisions but - I have a lot of people in the US Censues so I am a lumper as far as censuses go - I use the information for the 1930 Census but do not fill in the city, county or state until I get to the detail section of the entry. Try both and see which you like better because it needs to be how you want to have those show up in your reports and master lists. Cheers
