Abstract
frontier and remote area far codes provide a statistically based nationally consistent and adjustable definition of territory in the u s characterized by low population density and high geographic remoteness to assist in providing policy relevant information about conditions in sparsely settled remote areas of the u s to public officials researchers and the general public ers has developed zip code level frontier and remote far area codes the aim is not to provide a single definition instead it is to meet the demand for a delineation that is both geographically detailed and adjustable within reasonable ranges in order to be usefully applied in diverse research and policy contexts this initial set based on urban rural data from the 2000 decennial census provides four separate far definition levels ranging from one that is relatively inclusive 18 million far residents to one that is more restrictive 4 8 million far residents
