[gps-talkusers] e: e: Re: trouble looking up an address

zip codes aren't a reliable point to home in on especially in rural areas where they can be several hundred yards out, I find when I'm looking for a small village that sometimes is so small it doesn't feature in the City list there'll usually be a Postoffice in that village and they always have a postcode attached to the address.

I worry that if we have an expandded zip-postcode feature added will it further slow down the system?

Hello,
The reason for a zip, is that just as the e-mail below
states, if
you can't find a particular address, it is much easier
to find it
by zip code.
Just my two cents,

Robert Stigile

This gets back to my question that as yet has had no
answer...
why do you
need a zip code, a random number there is not much
reason to know
and not
much chance of knowing it, either, if you have the name
of the
town/city?

I am trying to create a route to a job interview.
Unfortunately the address is odd and I can't figure how
to find
it.
With out finding it I can't make a route.  Isn't that a
surprise?
It is n 88 17501 Main Street Menomonee falls, Wi.
How do I look up an address like that?
