Mercer County 911 Addressing
911 Address Application
What is a 911
Address?
A 911 address is an assigned property number using the Century
System property-numbering standard, which the American Society of Planning
Officials recommends for rural areas. In this system, numbers are based on
fractions of a mile, indicating distances along the road. Equal intervals of
1/100th mile (52.8’) are used, allowing up to 200 numbers per mile
(100 per each side of the road.) An individual property number is determined by
dividing the distances (in feet) from the property’s access point on the road
to the starting point for the road by 52.8 (1/100th mile). The
purpose of a 911 address is to ensure the location of a property and its
accuracy for emergency service purposes as well as numbering individual
properties as accurately as possible for mapping and possible future
development.
How to get a 911
Address?
Request a 911 application from the Mercer County
Regional Planning Commission, your municipality, the post office, or print out
the application online and return it to MCRPC. Complete the application and make
a map showing the distances in feet between your driveway and the driveways to
the left and right of your driveway and the distance between your driveway and
the closest driveway on the opposite side of the road. Also, show the distance
in feet between your driveway and the closest intersection. It is
important that all information on the application is filled out completely and
correctly. We depend on you for the information and accuracy of the map
and information.
