  FIPS county code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The FIPS county code is a five-digit Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) code (FIPS 6-4) which uniquely identifies counties and county equivalents in the United States, certain U.S. possessions, and certain freely associated states.
The first two digits are the FIPS state code and the last three are the county code within the state or possession.
County FIPS codes in the United States are usually (with a few exceptions) in the same sequence as alphabetized county names within the state.
