Throughout December 2024, several of us are taking part in the 30-Day PPT Coach4aday Challenge. PPT is an acronym for People Places or Things. Each day we share our insights, thoughts, or memories about a person (living or dead), a place (we have visited or learned about) or a thing that intrigues us. Today I am going to post on ZIP CODES.
On Jeopardy a few days before Thanksgiving there was an answer post on the game show. What sequential numbers makes up the Zip Code for Schenectady, New York. The correct response is what is 12345.
Well that game show got me thinking about North Carolina Zip Codes. What numbers are used in North Carolina. What is the first number used in the State of North Carolina and what is the last?
People, Places, & Things 30-Day Challenge Guidelines
Like previous challenges there are no hard and fast rules to participate. There are a few suggested guidelines
- Each day in December 2024 write about a Person, Place or Thing-PPT
- Share at least one fact, memory, or quality about your subject choice.
- If so inclined use the hash tag #Coach4adayChallenge on social media platforms
December 5th-Zip Codes
The answer is North Carolina codes start at the number 27006 for Advance NC located in Davie County and end with 28909 in Clay County for a town I never heard of before called Warne.
Warne is not actually a town it is an unincorporated area of Brasstown, NC. It is located just a few mile north of the NC/GA state line not too far from Young Harris GA.
The five numbers in a zip code have a purpose.
- The first digit designates a broad area, which ranges from zero for the Northeast to nine for the far West.
- The two following digits are the code of a central post office facility in that region.
- The last two digits designate small post offices or postal zones.
