US Region generator

The US Region generator creates region names or codes representing areas within the United States, such as Northeast, Midwest, South, or West. These regions are often used for demographic analysis, business segmentation, or logistical purposes.

Generator properties

The table provides key details about the generator, including the short name, sample of the generated data, the supported data types, and whether it is specific to a particular country.

Short name	Example of generated data	Data type matching	Country-specific
US Region	NY-IX, IN-FA, …	character character varying text	Default

Matching rules

The generator can be assigned to a column that matches any of the following rules:

• The column name contains ‘Region’ or ‘district’, preceded or followed by any or no characters, regardless of the table name.
• The column name is ‘Region’, regardless of the table name.

Configure additional options

The generator produces data based on a regular expression. Since it is built on the RegExp generator, see Regular Expression generator to customize settings and understand the correct usage of syntax.

The Text box displays a .csv file that contains a list of state codes. The default path to the file is C:\Users\Public\Documents\Devart\dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL\Data Generators\USStateCodes.csv.
