    Description

    This feature service is derived from the Esri "United States Zip Code Boundaries" layer, queried to only CA data.For the original data see: https://esri.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=5f31109b46d541da86119bd4cf213848Published by the California Department of Technology Geographic Information Services Team.The GIS Team can be reached at ODSdataservices@state.ca.gov.U.S. ZIP Code Boundaries represents five-digit ZIP Code areas used by the U.S. Postal Service to deliver mail more effectively. The first digit of a five-digit ZIP Code divides the United States into 10 large groups of states (or equivalent areas) numbered from 0 in the Northeast to 9 in the far West. Within these areas, each state is divided into an average of 10 smaller geographical areas, identified by the second and third digits. These digits, in conjunction with the first digit, represent a Sectional Center Facility (SCF) or a mail processing facility area. The fourth and fifth digits identify a post office, station, branch or local delivery area.As of the time this layer was published, in January 2025, Esri's boundaries are sourced from TomTom (June 2024) and the 2023 population estimates are from Esri Demographics. Esri updates its layer annually and those changes will immediately be reflected in this layer. Note that, because this layer passes through Esri's data, if you want to know the true date of the underlying data, click through to Esri's original source data and look at their metadata for more information on updates.Cautions about using Zip Code boundary dataZip code boundaries have three characteristics you should be aware of before using them:Zip code boundaries change, in ways small and large - these are not a stable analysis unit. Data you received keyed to zip codes may have used an earlier and very different boundary for your zip codes of interest.Historically, the United States Postal Service has not published zip code boundaries, and instead, boundary datasets are compiled by third party vendors from address data. That means that the boundary data are not authoritative, and any data you have keyed to zip codes may use a different, vendor-specific method for generating boundaries from the data here.Zip codes are designed to optimize mail delivery, not social, environmental, or demographic characteristics. Analysis using zip codes is subject to create issues with the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem that will bias any results because your units of analysis aren't designed for the data being studied.As of early 2025, USPS appears to be in the process of releasing boundaries, which will at least provide an authoritative source, but because of the other factors above, we do not recommend these boundaries for many use cases. If you are using these for anything other than mailing purposes, we recommend reconsideration. We provide the boundaries as a convenience, knowing people are looking for them, in order to ensure that up-to-date boundaries are available.

    Description

    ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs)ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) are generalized areal representations of United States Postal Service (USPS) ZIP Code service areas.The USPS ZIP Codes identify the individual post office or metropolitan area delivery station associated with mailing addresses. USPS ZIP Codes are not areal features but a collection of mail delivery routes.The term ZCTA was created to differentiate between this entity and true USPS ZIP Codes. ZCTA is a trademark of the U.S. Census Bureau; ZIP Code is a trademark of the U.S. Postal Service.How ZCTAs are CreatedThe Census Bureau first examined all of the addresses within each census block to define the list of ZIP Codes by block. Next, the most frequently occurring ZIP Code within each block was assigned to the entire census block as a preliminary ZCTA code. After all of the census blocks with addresses were assigned a preliminary ZCTA code, blocks were aggregated by code to create larger areas.The Census Bureau assigned blocks that contained addresses, but did not have a single most frequently occurring ZIP Code to the ZCTA with which the blocks had the longest shared boundary.If the area of an unassigned enclave was less than two square miles, it was assigned to the surrounding ZCTA. The Census Bureau used block group boundaries to identify and group unassigned blocks. These unassigned blocks were merged into an adjacent ZCTA based on the length of shared boundary.For the Census 2000 ZCTAs the Census Bureau created ZCTAs that ended in "XX" to represent large areas of land without ZIP Codes or "HH" to represent large areas of water without ZIP Codes. For the 2010 Census, large water bodies and large unpopulated land areas do not have ZCTAs.ZCTAs were created using residential and nonresidential ZIP Codes that are available in the Census Bureau’s MAF/TIGER database. ZIP Codes assigned to businesses only or single delivery point address will not necessarily appear as ZCTAs.In most instances the ZCTA code is the same as the ZIP Code for an area.In creating ZCTAs, the Census Bureau took the most frequently occurring ZIP Code in an area for the ZCTA code. Some addresses will end up with a ZCTA code different from their ZIP Code.Some ZIP Codes represent very few addresses (sometimes only one) and therefore will not appear in the ZCTA universe.Key Differences between Census 2000 and 2010 Census ZCTAsCensus 2000Includes the U.S. and Puerto RicoCover the full extent of the nation - "wall-to-wall" coverage3-digit and 5-digit ZCTA's available"XX" suffix used to represent large land areas such as national parks"HH" suffix used to represent large water bodies2010 CensusIncludes the U.S., Puerto Rico, and the Island AreasDo not cover the full extent of the nation - "holes" exist5-digit ZCTA's only"XX" retired - Large land areas such as national parks do not have ZCTA coverage"HH" retired - Large water bodies do not have ZCTA coverage

    Description

    The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) are approximate area representations of U.S. Postal Service (USPS) ZIP Code service areas that the Census Bureau creates to present statistical data for each decennial census. The Census Bureau delineates ZCTA boundaries for the United States, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands once each decade following the decennial census. Data users should not use ZCTAs to identify the official USPS ZIP Code for mail delivery. The USPS makes periodic changes to ZIP Codes to support more efficient mail delivery. The Census Bureau uses tabulation blocks as the basis for defining each ZCTA. Tabulation blocks are assigned to a ZCTA based on the most frequently occurring ZIP Code for the addresses contained within that block. The most frequently occurring ZIP Code also becomes the five-digit numeric code of the ZCTA. These codes may contain leading zeros. Blocks that do not contain addresses but are surrounded by a single ZCTA (enclaves) are assigned to the surrounding ZCTA. Because the Census Bureau only uses the most frequently occurring ZIP Code to assign blocks, a ZCTA may not exist for every USPS ZIP Code. Some ZIP Codes may not have a matching ZCTA because too few addresses were associated with the specific ZIP Code or the ZIP Code was not the most frequently occurring ZIP Code within any of the blocks where it exists. The ZCTA boundaries in this release are those delineated following the 2020 Census.

Description

This feature service is derived from the Esri "United States Zip Code Boundaries" layer, queried to only CA data.For the original data see: https://esri.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=5f31109b46d541da86119bd4cf213848Published by the California Department of Technology Geographic Information Services Team.The GIS Team can be reached at ODSdataservices@state.ca.gov.U.S. ZIP Code Boundaries represents five-digit ZIP Code areas used by the U.S. Postal Service to deliver mail more effectively. The first digit of a five-digit ZIP Code divides the United States into 10 large groups of states (or equivalent areas) numbered from 0 in the Northeast to 9 in the far West. Within these areas, each state is divided into an average of 10 smaller geographical areas, identified by the second and third digits. These digits, in conjunction with the first digit, represent a Sectional Center Facility (SCF) or a mail processing facility area. The fourth and fifth digits identify a post office, station, branch or local delivery area.As of the time this layer was published, in January 2025, Esri's boundaries are sourced from TomTom (June 2024) and the 2023 population estimates are from Esri Demographics. Esri updates its layer annually and those changes will immediately be reflected in this layer. Note that, because this layer passes through Esri's data, if you want to know the true date of the underlying data, click through to Esri's original source data and look at their metadata for more information on updates.Cautions about using Zip Code boundary dataZip code boundaries have three characteristics you should be aware of before using them:Zip code boundaries change, in ways small and large - these are not a stable analysis unit. Data you received keyed to zip codes may have used an earlier and very different boundary for your zip codes of interest.Historically, the United States Postal Service has not published zip code boundaries, and instead, boundary datasets are compiled by third party vendors from address data. That means that the boundary data are not authoritative, and any data you have keyed to zip codes may use a different, vendor-specific method for generating boundaries from the data here.Zip codes are designed to optimize mail delivery, not social, environmental, or demographic characteristics. Analysis using zip codes is subject to create issues with the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem that will bias any results because your units of analysis aren't designed for the data being studied.As of early 2025, USPS appears to be in the process of releasing boundaries, which will at least provide an authoritative source, but because of the other factors above, we do not recommend these boundaries for many use cases. If you are using these for anything other than mailing purposes, we recommend reconsideration. We provide the boundaries as a convenience, knowing people are looking for them, in order to ensure that up-to-date boundaries are available.
