Miscellaneous Information

So far, we found very little information about Pasadena. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Pasadena to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Pasadena - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Pasadena, please Contact Us.

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 Pasadena:

Place (Community) Code:	56490
State Code:	34 (New Jersey)
County Code:	029 (Ocean 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:	34/56490
State/County Code:	34/029

Regional Codes ...

For statistical purposes, the US Census Bureau has divided the country into four Regions. Pasadena would have been located in Region #1 (the Northeast Region).

In turn, the US Census Bureau has further divided each Region into Divisions. Pasadena would have been located in Division #2 (the Middle Atlantic Division).

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has created ten Federal Regions. Pasadena would have been located in Region II (Region 2).

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has created ten Management Regions. Pasadena would have been located in Region II (Region 2).
