How to Use a Rural Address Checker
A Rural Address is more than just a way to identify your home and property, it is also your 911 address. Your 911 address is used by E-911 dispatchers when calling for emergency assistance and also by line locators, utility companies, delivery drivers, etc. It is the responsibility of each property owner and occupant to manually post their official assigned physical address number on their property, as well as to maintain them. It is recommended that the sign be mounted perpendicular to the road and located out of the legal road right of way (usually 33 feet). Signs should be clearly visible, so please remove any brush, bushes or trees that may obstruct their visibility.
To use the rural address checker, enter a local street or ZIP code and click on the map. The address is checked against the rural classification report at the marker location, so it is important to get the correct street or ZIP code and click on a spot that's near the exact location you want to check.
Am I Rural uses Bing's reverse geocoding web service to find addresses in the area around your selected location. The results can vary slightly depending on the census tract, so if your result isn't quite what you were expecting try selecting a different location in the same census tract or moving your marker just a bit. You can also select a different year to see how the results change.
