Miscellaneous Information


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

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


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.

The following FIPS codes apply to Manzano:

Place (Community) Code:  46690
State Code:  35 (New Mexico)
County Code:  001 (Bernalillo 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:  35/46690
State/County Code:  35/001

Regional Codes ...

For statistical purposes, the US Census Bureau has divided the country into four Regions. Manzano would have been located in Region #4 (the West Region).

In turn, the US Census Bureau has further divided each Region into Divisions. Manzano would have been located in Division #8 (the Mountain Division).

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has created ten Federal Regions. Manzano would have been located in Region VI (Region 6).

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has created ten Management Regions. Manzano would have been located in Region VI (Region 6).

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Manzano, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
