Miscellaneous Information


Various Identification Codes ...

FIPS Codes ...

In a past effort, various federal agencies created a set of codes with a purpose similar to the GNIS codes. These codes are called the Federal Information Processing Standard (or the FIPS 55 codes). Although they are still used by some organizations, the FIPS codes are obsolete and will ultimately be replaced by the GNIS codes.

While FIPS codes have been assigned to all counties and states, a specific code has not been assigned to Rock Run. The following FIPS codes apply to the State and County:

State Code:  01 (Alabama)
County Code:  019 (Cherokee County)

Regional Codes ...

For statistical purposes, the US Census Bureau has divided the country into four Regions. Rock Run is located in Region #3 (the South Region).

In turn, the US Census Bureau has further divided each Region into Divisions. Rock Run is located in Division #6 (the East South-Central Division).

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has created ten Federal Regions. Rock Run is located in Region IV (Region 4).

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has created ten Management Regions. Rock Run is located in Region IV (Region 4).

ZIP Codes ...

While some people have used a ZIP code to identify a community, the purpose of the ZIP code was to make mail delivery more efficient by grouping addresses together. Although the ZIP Code doesn't specifically identify a community like Rock Run, it does identify addresses that are in (or near) Rock Run. It's important to remember that the boundaries of a ZIP Code are defined by the needs of the USPS and can be changed, re-assigned or overlapped with other ZIP Codes.
