Where is 29204-1808?

• A nine digit or ZIP + 4 code is represented as a point.
• Generally there are two points assigned for every 100 addresses:
• One for the odd, and one for the even side of the street
• These points are usually mathematically calculated to be located at the midpoint of the TIGER street centerline for that address range.
• As a result, even though there are different points for each side of the street, the coordinates are often exactly the same.
• Unique ZIP + 4 numbers can also be assigned by the Postal Service to any business or organization that receives a large volume of mail.
• A large office building can actually be represented by several 9 digit zip codes with the same coordinate points.
• Separate divisions within the same business that receive large volumes of mail can even have their own ZIP + 4.
• Note that in 29204 there are 1,522 ZIP + 4 points.
• If there is a 9 digit zip code in the address then it is generally possible to geographically reference that address to the proper side of the street within a block.
