| What Are The Federal Reserve Codes For Dallas And New York City | 
The Big Apple's Big Code: New York City
Ah, New York City, the city that never sleeps...and probably wouldn't recognize its own Federal Reserve code if it did. But fret no more! The code for the New York Fed is B. Yes, that simple. Imagine the confusion if it were something more complex, like "WALTZ-ME-TO-MILLIONS," right?
Pro Tip: Don't try using this code to impress your date at a swanky Manhattan bar. They might think you're quoting a particularly obscure Jay-Z lyric.

Knowing these codes might not make you a financial whiz overnight, but hey, knowledge is power, and who knows, it might just impress your grandma at Thanksgiving dinner. (Just maybe don't bring up grandma and finance in the same sentence)
