Term Description

The "RuralUrban Continuum 1993" 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 the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in 1993. 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 the 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) also will be coded 98. If Addr at DX--State is XX, YY, or ZZ, the Rural Urban Continuum 93 code will be coded as 99. If County at DX equals 999, the Rural Urban Continuum 1993 code will be coded as 99.

RuralUrban Continuum 1993 codes are provided for each county by the OMB and consist of a 1-character rural-urban status, which is very useful for incidence and mortality data analysis... NAACCR Data Standards and Data Dictionary Version 11
