Figures add up every ZIP Code in the radius. "Typical" values are medians estimated from each ZIP Code's median, so they are approximate. PO Box and single-address ZIP Codes have no area of their own; their residents are counted in the ZIP Codes around them. Source: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-year Data Profiles.

A radius built on real ZIP Code boundaries

A ZIP Code isn't a shape drawn on a map. It's a set of mail delivery routes, so its truest outline is the area those routes cover. Our radius measures that area.

One point per ZIP Code

Most radius tools check only each ZIP Code's center. A ZIP Code that reaches well into the circle is left out when its center is outside, and one that is barely inside counts in full.

Census ZCTAs

The Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Areas are built from census blocks, not mail routes, and are redrawn only with each census. Most PO Box and single-business ZIP Codes have none.

Our ZIP Code boundaries

Built from USPS carrier routes, the lines carriers actually deliver along, and rebuilt every quarter. The spatial radius counts each ZIP Code by how much of it is inside the circle, and its people by the same share.

Need the center-point list instead? Choose Centroid under More options.

Need the boundaries themselves?

The same ZIP Code polygons, for your own maps and analysis: one ZIP Code, a state or the whole U.S., in Shapefile, GeoJSON, KML, WKT, CSV, MySQL, PostGIS or SQL Server. Instant download, with quarterly updates.

Powered by the ZIP Codes API

Everything above came from one call to the ZIP Codes API /v2/radius endpoint: the ZIP Codes in the radius, how much of each is inside, and Census figures for the whole area. The API also returns the same figures for any year from 2011 to 2024, and it searches up to 250 miles.

This search used 5 credits; a free key includes 2,500 a day.
