Zip Code Database Description

What exactly is a "ZIP Code Database"?

Our database is a set of data that is put into row and column format for easy use and manipulation. (Download a Sample)

The way we present our data, manipulating it into useful information for your company is seamless.

We give you 65 unique fields of information (Business Edition) which virtually gives you an unlimited combination of ways to analyze all the U.S. demographic and zip code information.

If you want to know all of the zip codes in a particular county - simply sort the data by state first, by county second and you now have the information you want - it's that simple. Do you want to know where to target your marketing efforts? Sort the database by "household income" which would give you a list of all the zip codes in "household income" order. Do you want to see where all the high population densities are within the U.S.? Sort the data by population. Where are the largest concentration of businesses? Sort the data by "# of Businesses". You can start to see the power that so many fields of information can give you.

Another powerful use of the data is using our database on your website to match up zip codes with your website users. Lets say you have 40 store locations accross the U.S. and you want to be able to tell your website users where your nearest store location is, simply match your store location zip codes against our data to tell your users where the closest location is.

We also have scripts that you can use in conjunction with the data. They are the two scripts that we use on our site - the Distance Calculator and the Radius Finder. These two scripts make our data even more powerful because you can now further manipulate the data using these two helpful tools. The best part is that we give the scripts away for free to our customers that ask for them and they have no distance limitations on them when you use them for yourself.

You can download the database in Excel, Microsoft Access, or CSV (comma delimited). This will save you time because you will not have to convert the data to suit your needs.
