Hi Peggy, At least in New Mexico, where I live, and as far as I know about other states, these exit numbers are also mileposts originating at the edge of the state. For instance, I-40 which goes across the state in basically an east-west direction, the exit numbers start with #1 on the Arizona bourder, and go up as you go to the East. HTH.

I've noticed that the exits that are listed in the poi have some kind of numbers, something like 201 I-5 north. What are these numbers? In some places they seem to be an intersecting freeway or street, but at other times they seem to be something else. Can anyone clarify for me? Peggy
