Provides USDA Rural-Urban Continuum Codes (RUCC 2023), Rural-Urban Commuting Area codes (RUCA 2020), and a composite rurality score for all U.S. counties. Functions enable lookup by FIPS code, ZIP code, or county name, and easy merging with existing datasets. Data sources include the USDA Economic Research Service, U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey, and Census TIGER/Line shapefiles.
