id

Govenment integrated ID: The government unit code is the basic identification system used by the Census Bureau to keep track of all governments and their dependent agencies. The code is a 14 digit, numeric identifier. The format is: SS T CCC UUU SUP SB where: SS = state T = type of government CCC = county area within the state UUU = unit code within the county area

SUP = supplemental unit code, for de pendent agencies of the parent unit

SB = subsidiary code for dependent agencies that require separate data collection / canvassing The following parameters and rules apply to the code structure:

SS is a numeric sequence assigned to the states alphabetically – Alabama is 01, Alaska 02, and so forth, until Wyoming at 51. Note the District of Columbia is assigned code 09 and the U.S. Federal Government is assigned code 00.

T represents type of government, as defined by the Census Bureau. See type_of_gov

CCC, the county area codes, are assigned alphabetically within each state area, although there are some exceptions where county consolidations have taken place or new counties have been created.

The unit code UUU identifies a specific government within the state, county, and type of government sequence. They, too, are generally alphabetical within the county area and type of government combination, but exceptions exist (especially for special districts). The unit code
