The NALENND® NPA NXX to Zip Code Database provides the coverage required to identify which telephone area codes and exchanges are used in a particular Zip Code as well as what Zip Codes are in use within a particular telephone area code and exchange.
This mapping is based on the geography of the NPA NXX Rate Center and the ZIP Code boundaries which yields a true representation of the coverage areas. Additionally this version of the data identifies both the FIPS county and place codes which may be used as an aid in determining certain types of local jurisdictions.
