# French urban unit code (INSEE unité urbaine) (`fr_unite_urbaine_code`)

> **Draft.** Draft records have not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong; do not treat them as authoritative for legal or compliance decisions.

Five-character code of an unité urbaine, an INSEE zoning of built-up areas (continuous buildings with at least 2,000 inhabitants). Files name the columns uu2020 or uu2010 after the zoning year; communes outside any urban unit can carry a special value instead of a code.
