Miscellaneous Information


Various Identification Codes ...

FIPS Codes ...

In a past effort, various federal agencies worked together to create 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.

The following FIPS codes apply to Kimball Prairie:

Place (Community) Code:  33182
State Code:  27 (Minnesota)
County Code:  145 (Stearns County)

Since the Place and County FIPS codes are not unique and can be repeated in other States, it's necessary to combine the State code with the Place and County FIPS codes to uniquely identify them - for example:

State/Place Code:  27/33182
State/County Code:  27/145

Regional Codes ...

For statistical purposes, the US Census Bureau has divided the country into four Regions. Kimball Prairie is located in Region #2 (the Midwest Region).

In turn, the US Census Bureau has further divided each Region into Divisions. Kimball Prairie is located in Division #4 (the West North-Central Division).

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has created ten Federal Regions. Kimball Prairie is located in Region V (Region 5).

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has created ten Management Regions. Kimball Prairie is located in Region V (Region 5).
