The Fraud Examiner. Social Security Number Randomization. As of June 2011, the Social Security Administration administers Social Security numbers randomly. Prior to this change, Social Security numbers were based, at least partially, on the geographical location of the recipient. The Social Security program began in 1935 as part of the New Deal.
For example, Texas residents were given SSNs with the first three numbers in the range of 449-467. However, to help prevent identity theft and provide numbering flexibility, SSNs are now assigned on a random basis to new SSN recipients. Current SSN holders will not have their number affected by the new random system.
