Collectors list - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

31 Mar 1999

Where I live, my zip code is 15005, which is for Baden.  I actually live
about 5-10 miles away from Baden, and just have a Baden address because
Economy (small) doesn't have a post office.  The neighbor across the street
has a Sewickley zip code, and my neighbor next door has a Freedom zip code.
It all depended on when the house was built and when the person moved in.
Going by a zip code isn't a very accurate way to find people where I live
(although most places are probably more organized).

Good Grief.

5540 is my post code.  But ours are not that specific.
In a big city they usually narrow it down to a suburb or two, but 5540
is the code for the entire city of Port Pirie.  (15,000 people)
Comes from being less crowded I guess...
