Census Areas - FIPS county codes 240 and 290, respectively - on December 7,
1990)
o
Yakutat
City and Borough, Alaska
(FIPS county code 282) (organized from part of Skagway-Yakutat-Angoon Census

The portion
of Yellowstone National Park in Montana (FIPS county code 113) (until

therefore the Census Bureau treated it as a separate geographic entity that was
equivalent to a county in Montana for data presentation purposes; on that date,
the Montana portion of the park became part of Gallatin and Park Counties -
FIPS county codes 031 and 067, respectively)
