- cheetos 12y agoYou must live in a different U.S. than everyone else. It's clearly the other way around. https://www.google.com/search?q=site:usps.com+"zip+code" https://www.google.com/search?q=site:usps.com+"zip+code" returns 120k results https://www.google.com/search?q=site:usps.com+"postal+code" https://www.google.com/search?q=site:usps.com+"postal+code" returns 372 results
- gchokov 12y agoTo be honest, everyone should refer to these as postal codes or at least address codes. No one refers to the ZIP code as Zone Improvement Plan code anyway.. so what is the use of these code in the real life?
- ajkjk 12y ago'should'? What's wrong with calling them Zip codes? That's how they're written everywhere.
- wtbob 12y ago> I've never run across anyone in the U.S. who refers to postal codes as zip codes. Say what? Where in the U.S. do you live? I've been all over, and I've never once heard them called 'postal codes'; always and every time 'zip codes.'
- eropple 12y agoI've only ever heard "postal code" in the South.
- ChristianGeek 12y agoGood grief, I was talking about referring to international postal codes as zip codes, which I thought was what this thread is about.
