If there is an extra U(1) gauge symmetry broken at low energies, then it may be possible from the charges of the known quarks and leptons under this U(1) to make inferences about how much gauge unification occurs at high scales and about the unification group. (For instance, there are certain observed properties of an extra $U(1)'$ that would be inconsistent with unification in four dimensions at high scales.) A general analysis is presented. Two criteria used in this analysis are (1) the degree to which the generator of the extra U(1) mixes with hypercharge, and (2) the ratio of the extra U(1) charge of the "10" and the "$\bar{5}$" of quarks and leptons.
