Codes 9991-9993 are used for a few cases in 1995N and 1999N, where rare combinations of SMSA and METRO prevent us showing exact metro codes. The codes apply to the National surveys only, unless marked with an asterisk (*), which indicates that the code is also used in Metro surveys. See http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/housing/ahs/metrodates.html for a list of which metropolitan areas are included in each metropolitan survey. As a supplement to the national survey, the 1995, 1999, and 2003 National data include extra cases to allow separate analyses of 6 areas: Chicago (0620, 1600, 3965, 9991), Detroit (2160), Los Angeles (4480), New York (5380, 5600, 9992), Northern New Jersey (0875, 3640, 5015, 5190, 5640, 8480, 9993), and Philadelphia (6160).

It does not necessarily correspond to a geographic subdivision although in almost all cases each identified zone is equivalent to a group of Census tracts. A zone may follow the boundaries of a county or cover a portion of a county. It may also cover several counties or townships or portions of several counties. The areas in a zone are not always adjacent. Note that these zones are not intended for use in separate analyses, but rather as analytic building blocks, because the limited sample size in each zone will preclude reliable results for any single area.
