ATTOM Zip Code Boundaries for Parcel-Level Accuracy

ATTOM ZIP Codes provides nationwide spatial demarcations of ZIP Code boundaries along with names and associated attributes.

While ZIP Codes were introduced to improve the efficiency of mail sorting and delivery, their release created unexpected socioeconomic benefits as an organizing device. As a result, ZIP Codes now support countless business functions across every industry.

Due to the ZIP Code’s inclusion in property addresses, their relatively small spatial scale, the community and identity representation they foster, and the vast wealth of information published at the ZIP Code level, they are a great fit for use in property search, insurance, marketing, sales territory alignment, site selection, thematic maps, and numerous other types of geospatial analyses.

The ATTOM GIS Team uses a proprietary process to create ZIP Code and postal boundaries, utilizing USPS Carrier Routes and various other USPS publications and data sets to identify new and retired ZIP Codes and changes in ZIP Code spatial definitions and names.

ATTOM Postal Boundaries – the Premier City Layer for Property Search

Unlike Census Incorporated Places that only cover 3.5% of the land area of the US, ATTOM Postal Cities fully cover the entire country, making them the ideal “City” solution for most use cases.

Additionally, because they are constructed from US Postal Service data, the names and boundaries of ATTOM Postal Cities will be familiar to local residents because they match the postal city names in their property addresses.
