Miscellaneous Information

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

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

Place (Community) Code:	07500
State Code:	32 (Nevada)
County Code:	031 (Washoe 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:	32/07500
State/County Code:	32/031

Regional Codes ...

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

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

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has created ten Federal Regions. Bronte would have been located in Region IX (Region 9).

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has created ten Management Regions. Bronte would have been located in Region IX (Region 9).
