Locale Types (Johnson Codes) 1995-96: Designation for Schools in AEL's Region.
Burczyk, Rae
This document provides educational researchers with the locale type for every public school in Kentucky, Virginia, West Virginia, and Tennessee as of 1995-96. The classification system used to assign locale types was developed by Frank H. Johnson and had been adopted by the National Center for Education Statistics, Common Core of Data, Public School Universe. On the basis of its city and zip code, each public elementary and secondary school in the United States is given a locale assignment of 1 to 7: (1) large city, (2) mid-size city, (3) urban fringe of large city, (4) urban fringe of mid-size city, (5) large town, (6) small town, and (7) rural. Locale assignment is based on the Office of Management and Budget's determination of Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas and the Census Bureau's method of defining areas as either urban or rural. In this document, data tables for each state are arranged alphabetically by school district or county. Within each school district or county, individual schools are listed with street address, city, zip code, telephone number, locale type, and total student enrollment. (SV)
