Locality Pay Area Definitions
2013 Locality Pay Area Definitions
All locality pay areas and definitions for 2014 are the same as those in effect in 2013. Most of the place names listed below are counties. The Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) geographic codes consist of a two-digit State and three-digit county identifier. These geographic codes are derived from the Worldwide Geographic Location Codes, 1993. The District of Columbia, Alaska, and Hawaii are identified by State code only. Please note that Berwick town, Eliot town, Kittery town, South Berwick town, and York town in York County, ME, remain in the Boston locality pay area, while the remainder of York County, ME, remains in the "Rest of U.S." locality pay area. State, city, and county geographic codes are listed for applicable cities and towns in York County, ME. State, city, and county codes also are listed for Edwards Air Force Base, in Kern County, CA, which is part of the Los Angeles locality pay area, for the Federal Correctional Complex, Butner, NC, which is part of the Raleigh-Durham-Cary, NC, locality pay area, and for McGuire Air Force Base and Fort Dix in Burlington County, NJ, which are part of the New York locality pay area. These are the only exceptions to the use of State/county codes.
Section 1911 of P.L. 111-84, the Non-Foreign Area Retirement Equity Assurance Act of 2009, phased in locality pay for employees in the non-foreign areas as identified in 5 C.F.R. 591.205. Alaska and Hawaii are separate locality pay areas with separate pay tables. Other non-foreign areas are included as part of the Rest of U.S. (RUS) locality pay area.
