Re: US Zip codes

[Ron-Zimmerman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I can give you one example because I live in the area where it occurs.  I 
live in Muscatine, Iowa which is right on the Mississippi River and whose 
zip code is 52761.  There is no town immediately across the river (in 
Illinois) from Muscatine, so there is an area of Illinois which is served 
by the Muscatine Post Office.  This means that those people have a Iowa 
mailing address, but physically reside in Illinois.  (You can imagine the 
problems these folks have when trying to explain this to some government 
agency and it's bureaucrats!)

Thank you,

Jim,

according to my zccity file from worksright software, I found no zips that
span multiple states.

whoever said there were some, could you post an example?

----original message----------
So does anyone have a true zip code file with State Code, to verify
which zip codes cross state lines?
Also, John - do you ever sell to Canada, Mexico, or anywhere else?
Be aware there are zip codes in some other countries that match 5 digit US
zip codes.
jim
