Download Data:
This data layer shows zip codes as defined by the US Postal Service. A field was added for the US Postal village designation to support mailings. Although the Postal Service does not consider zip codes to be geographic areas (there are areas of overlap and non-contiguous areas), Newton zip codes can be accurately represented as polygons.
Note that one of those zip codes, for a property at the eastern edge of the city is 02135. This is a Brighton (City of Boston) zip code. It occurs in Newton because the properties are in Newton but the address is on Undine Rd in Brighton.
