New Zealand copies the Australian system of 4 digit postal codes. The codes for my city all begin with 8. IE: 8007, 8009, 8001 etc.


Edited to add:

The country starts with 0100 way up the top, to 9999 right down the bottom. Every suburb and township has its own unique postcode, which I only know of a few.

And don't forget, kiddies, the correct postcode for a certain Mr. F. Christmas is SAN TA1...

Does Australia have only four digits?


Better late than never, Philip, you have an answer :

Australia works (as Luke from NZ said a little earlier) on a four digit system.

The leading number denotes what State or Territory one lives in :

2000 - 2999  New South Wales
3000 - 3999  Victoria
4000 - 4999  Queensland
5000 - 5999  South Australia
6000 - 6999  Western Australia
7000 - 7999  Tasmania

Once upon a time, Northern Territory used to start with the Prefix '8' - but they changed to '08' for the first two digits for reasons probably only know by some wise old hermit who guards a bridge over a chasm in a Python movie....  ::)

Nobody knows what '1' did to offend the Postmaster-General.  :P

Australian Capital Territory uses a subset of the New South Wales postcodes (from 2600 - ??) - this is most likely because they are stuck surrounded by NSW....

I have lived in the following postcodes :

4068  Indooroopilly
4051  Enoggera
4075  Oxley
4066  Auchenflower
4503  Kallangur
4505  Burpengary

Hi Philip

No.  Canberra is part of the Australian Capital Territory (hence the "Australian Capital" bit of the name  :P) - they are in the 2600 range.

Some may suggest that Canberra should be 0000.  Of course I would NEVER be so unkind  ;) ;) ;) :D

I've never worked out how specific US Zip Codes are.  Does it just direct you to an area or to a specific road in the area?

In the UK the first part of the code (letters) tells you the county (or part of London), the next part (number) tells you a town or district within that.  After that a number tells you the area of town that it is and the final two letters tells you the street or part of street the house is on.  So our first house was LE11 4ET

LE - Leicestershire
11 - town of Loughborugh
4 - northern part of the town
ET - New Ashby Road between numbers 350 and 400 (I think)

I've never worked out how specific US Zip Codes are.  Does it just direct you to an area or to a specific road in the area?


Zip Codes don't direct you to roads.  You can have one road go through 4 or 5 different zip codes.  They direct you to a specific area/neighborhood.

In the U.S., there is a four digit code added to the end of the zip code for a specific location
in a part of a city. For example my zip code is 08059-1123

Didn't he say at one time he lived in Berkshire? ???
I have never lived in Berkshire, passed through and visited yes, but never resided.

The highest is Ketchickan, AK 99950

New York state also has the anomolous ZIP code 06390, also in Suffolk County.  This is for Fisher's Island, which is flush up against the Connecticut coast.  USPS thus assigned it a "Connecticut" ZIP code.  ZIP codes almost always conform to the same initial number associated with the state, but there's no regulation that says they must.  USPS stresses ZIPs are not geographic parameters, but merely delivery designations.

Like I said in my above post, your post count is in San Diego.

Philip's count is 92106.. which also would probably be San Diego.. because when I was a kid, I lived in San Diego, and our zip code was 92102.  just a bit of useless info there. I've got quite a ways to go before I'll be in any zipcode  (my post count that is. )

Or you could tack on a zero in front and think of it as 05577, which I doubt exists as a zipcode...that's one way to look at it.

nope, it doesn't exist. I just checked.

Let's see, according to my pathetic post count, I'm currently nowhere.

My current post tally doesn't register as a zipcode either. :-\\

And I just checked Philip's post tally...he's still in San Diego.

I think you might be in Palm Springs (or somewhere near there) now. I know you've already passed Palm Desert (92211).

I was about to ask where am I now?

I was about to ask where am I now?

Rancho Mirage. That's near Palm Springs. I knew about the Palm Desert zipcode because my grandparents on my dad's side live out there. It gets very hot there in the summertime.

Rancho Mirage....
....nicknamed "the playground of the presidents"?

I've gone through all the zipcodes in Arkansas now...the next zipcode my post tally will hit is 73001, which is Albert, Oklahoma.

I am now passing through San Bernardino (92401)

^ While Philip's current post tally does not register as a zipcode, I already know that he has passed through Orange County...most of the zipcodes there start with 92xxx, the first of which is 92602 (Irvine), and the last of which is 92887 (Yorba Linda). After he passes ninety-three thousand, he will be in Ventura County...so sometime within the next 24 hours, he'll be passing through my home zipcode.

I will wave to you as I pass by.

With a tally of 93020, you are currently in Moorpark. You've already been through Camarillo (93010 series).

Ten more and you'll be going through my home zipcode.

In that case I will pop in for tea, this being my 93030 post.

To the north of the River Ridge Golf Course looks to be a dried out river, is that so?

I love those maps on Google Maps. You get to see a satellite version of it.

Not too long ago, I decided to zoom in on my neighborhood through Google Maps. I saved the image, but I don't think I should post it, since I copied-and-pasted the image into MS Paint and put a label with my address on it. I could revise the picture, though.

Cool ;)

By the way, I think you just went through Port Hueneme...home of a Navy Base.

The next set of zipcodes you will be passing through are the 93060 series, which pertain to Simi Valley, where my mom works.

Where is Silicon Valley, home to the computer manufactuers?

It's located southeast of San Francisco, so you won't get there until much later. But at the rate you're going, who knows?

Maybe next week?

Next month for sure.


Right now you are in Simi Valley.

Close to the Sinaola Golf Course?

Yeah, I believe so. I've golfed there a couple times, most recently in July (a couple days before my birthday).

I remember you saying that, you played with your father?

Why, yes. :)


By the way, I think you've gone through Santa Barbara now.

Why, yes. :)

Is that course a short one like par three holes only?

Philip...you are now in Los Alamos, California (93440).

Now you're up to 93454....Santa Maria, CA.

As for me (73581), that does not register as a zipcode.

Now you're up to 93454....Santa Maria, CA.
Gradually moving towards San Francisco.

You might be there by next week. San Francisco's main zipcode starts with 941__, I think. (Geographically speaking, however, you're closer to Los Angeles than San Francisco.)

Close to Santa Maria, there is a town called Guadalope, why does that place sounds familiar to me?

Guadalupe? Yes, that's a small town immediately to the west of Santa Maria. I've gone through it a couple of times.

Is it famous for anything?

Now 94000

San Francisco here I come!

94258 sees me in Sacramento!

^So you're in my state capital! Well done Philip! :D For the record, I've never been to that part of the state, but my parents have...in fact, they were there this past summer for a week.

So I guess you've already been through San Francisco then? ???
