Footnotes ...

<1>	ZIP Codes have been created by the United States Postal Service (USPS) as a way of grouping addresses to make delivery more efficient. The boundaries of the ZIP Code can be changed, re-assigned, eliminated or overlapped with other ZIP Codes. So keep in mind that any given ZIP Code is only 'loosely' associated with a city (such as Little Rock). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Little Rock or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS). Our list of ZIP Codes for Little Rock includes: 72201, 72202, 72203, 72204, 72205, 72206, 72209, 72210, 72211, 72214, 72215, 72216, 72219, 72221, 72222, 72225, 72227, 72231 & 72295.
<2>	The elevation is an estimate for the area around Little Rock - it will be higher in some places and lower in others.
<3>	Every year, the US Census Bureau creates a population estimate for the preceeding year. Keep in mind that this value is an estimate and not an actual count. The most recent Census estimate is for the year 2019.
<4>	The area value has been supplied by the US Census Bureau and it can be different than the geographic boundaries of Little Rock.
