description | The "RuralUrban Continuum 2000" code, often referred to as the "Beale Code," is generated programmatically using Addr at DX--State [80] and County at DX [90]. It contains the Rural-Urban Continuum code as provided by OMB based on the 2000 Census. The code is a 10-point continuum (00-09) measuring urban-rural status. Abstractors do not enter these codes. The code has been expanded to 2 digits to accommodate areas that are not included in Rural Urban Continuum code table, such as Canadian provinces/territories and U.S. territories. These areas will be coded with a value of 98. Records for nonresidents of the state of reporting institution (County at DX = 998) will also be coded 98. If Addr at DX--State is XX, YY, or ZZ, the Rural Urban Continuum 2000 code will be coded as 99. If County at DX equals 999, the Rural Urban Continuum 2000 code will be coded as 99. RuralUrban Continuum 2000 codes are provided for each county by OMB and consist of a 1-character rural-urban status, which is very useful for incidence data analysis.
