Census Facts, Schedules and Indexes, Heritage Quest: Bountiful, UT, 2000.
Dollarhide also published a county-by-county map to changing census
districts.

As far as I can tell, the 1800-1830 censuses were conducted on a ward or
township level, by county.  You can search the names, and see the list of
districts [e.g., 1820 NYC=10 wards], at the Ancestry.com site above.  You
get the names, search and district for free, but not the actual images
[unless you subscribe].
