Footnotes ...

<1>If you're interested in how the shape of Texas' counties, including Collin, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
<2>Population counts have been provided by the U.S. Census Bureau. For more detail, please visit our Census Page for Nevada.
<3>The elevation is an estimate for the area around Nevada - it will be higher in some places and lower in others.
<4>When there's a risk of an area code running out of phone numbers, an 'Overlay Area Code' is created that has the same geographic boundaries as the existing area code. In this case, the 214 code has been Overlayed with one of the following codes: 469, 945 or 972. New phone numbers in the Nevada area will be assigned with one of these codes: 214, 469, 945 or 972. As a result, placing a call in the Nevada area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).
<5>ZIP Codes have been created by the United States Postal Service (USPS) as a way of grouping addresses to make delivery more efficient. The boundaries of the ZIP Code can be changed, re-assigned, eliminated or overlapped with other ZIP Codes. So keep in mind that any given ZIP Code is only 'loosely' associated with a city (such as Nevada). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Nevada or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS).
