wubbalubbadubdubtangclan
So a zip code is basically the legal requirements of how many zips on your clothing you must have at any given time?
DieselBrother
Yep.
wubbalubbadubdubtangclan
I always thought that, just didnt want to sound stupid asking such an obvious question. Thanks for clearing that up.

I have lived in 3 different sections of kentucky and had a 4xxxx zip code in all 3.

exactly
DragoonExMachina
That....is because all of Kentucky uses 4- codes.

Derp i confused Tennessee with Kentucky lol :)

AnEvilBrownEgg
Hmm, they must be adding zip codes. There never used to be 00 zips now it seems there are two. So Portsmouth, NH is lowest
villariny
Puerto Rico Zip Codes have 00 from the start of the program
QADA
I’d be interested in buying a coffee table book about zip codes leaving it out so people think I’m well versed in obscure stuff/ interesting
WhenIGrowUpIWantToBeAMeme
Wait, but, google says that 03801
DavidBrooker
Fun fact: if you are Canadian, and are asked for a zip code (gas pump, ATM, etc), use the three numbers of your postal code plus 00.
Unoseby
Why do you even need a zipcode for gas pumps in the US?
DavidBrooker
Security, as they haven't widely adopted chip+PIN as Canada and Europe has.
WalkersNonsuchToffees
I added a 0 to my. 4-digit swiss postal code. Netflix now believes I'm american. Saves me about 5$ a month.
erischilde
This has left me wondering before. Bad websites that put Canada on form but won't submit without zipcode. Thank you!
BusinessOfCatsnakes
Why do they do this? Why does the gas station need to know where I live? (I'm Canadian and don't understand how the US works)
DavidBrooker
The US, unlike the rest of the Western world, has not adopted chip+PIN widely. The billing address is used as a work around for anti-fraud.
DavidBrooker
eg: lets say the billing address of your credit card is postal code M5J 1E3. US machines will accept 51300 as a valid zip code.
jakaii
o.O
Rhulain
Veolocity
Or just use 90210.
DavidBrooker
I used to do this for Pandora before they got a court order to actually check IPs. However, be careful, as if you're matching a credit 1/2
DavidBrooker
card and a zip code, often they check the billing address to catch fraud. So that can bounce, or even lock your account. 2/2
Veolocity
I guess I should've explained that I'm not from the USA.
DavidBrooker
Right. I am Canadian. Using an incorrect zip code that way, matched with a Canadian credit card, can trigger fraud detection on your card.
Cobaltios
Wait, the first 3 or the second set?
QADA
Numbers not letters postal codes are numbers and letters 6 total use numbers only plus 00 at the end is as how I understand this
Cobaltios
That makes sense.
DavidBrooker
There are only three numbers in a Canadian postal code, so all of them. The format is A#A #A#.
Selerox
The UK uses an alphanumeric code that identifies an area down to a *handful* of properties. SW14 4DJ for example.
HairytheSheep
So do you still have to fully address an envelope?
Selerox
In theory you could stick a house/flat number and a postcode and it'd get there. But it's better to use the full address, just in case >>
Selerox
>> the postcode covers a tiny bit of two different streets (which is pretty unlikely, but possible). Some government departments you just >>
Selerox
>> need the department name and a postcode. The DVLA (think US DMV) is just: DVLA, SA99 1BN. It'll get there.

What's with all the white area? No zip codes there?
WizeGuyThoughts
That little part at the New Mexico/Texas border overlaps
EggsMayhem
It's to damp, the numbers fade.
badbmc
That's Canada.
StepRightUp
Pretty sure those are federal lands, mainly BLM, with Wilderness or other non-habitation designations. I recognize areas where I mapped....
AnotherStrangerMe
No people there.

Those parts have being sold of too other countries no us codes dont work

I would guess so. Middle of Nevada is a whole lot of nothing
OblivionCityGuard
the white stain south of Florida is Everglades national park, so I guess this is for uninhabitable and protected area
DougForcett
Not enough population density to justify home postal delivery maybe? They would all need to use PO Boxes.
RepostFromLastWeek
Correct : https://www.unitedstateszipcodes.org/
TheMythicalJackalope
From what I know of my own state (WA), uninhabited.
Thesomanyethcrazycatlady
Subconsciously it just registered as clouds in my mind, until I read your post and realized maps normally don't include weather...
RepostFromLastWeek
Explained in the source : https://www.unitedstateszipcodes.org/ they're regions without assigned ZIP codes.
FlyingButtPliers
Uninhabited / republican areas.
twocatsgluedbacktobacktodefyphysics
That's the ocean
ScottaHemi
my guess is federal owned land that can't be mailed to maybe? though i do see the Red Lake Res, and most of Nevada would be white...

if that was truely the case.

Some are public land and or military installations. Nevada for example
DragoonExMachina
Military installations use local Zip codes. Only OCONUS bases use the APO/APE system.

Yes

I don’t think so I don’t see many big parks on there
CaptainSilver42
Yeah you're right. Maybe just fed land then?
ThreeLineRifle
Nope, check the tip of Minnesota which is not fed land. They did try to join Canada years ago. Bemidji is in the lower white too I think.
NotMyUsualOnlineName
Yeah, some military bases out west are blanked out on maps.
mitchnlsn
Military bases have there own zip codes that start with the corresponding number of the area
