Footnotes ...
| <1> | The pronunciation we've provided is our attempt to give a phonetic pronunciation for Tucson. While it might not be exactly right, hopefully it will be close. If we have it wrong or there's a better way to pronounce the name, please contact us through our Feedback Page. |
| <2> | 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 Tucson). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Tucson or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS).
Our list of ZIP Codes for Tucson includes: 85701, 85702, 85703, 85704, 85705, 85706, 85707, 85708, 85709, 85710, 85711, 85712, 85713, 85714, 85715, 85716, 85717, 85718, 85719, 85720, 85721, 85722, 85723, 85724, 85725, 85728, 85730, 85731, 85732, 85733, 85734, 85735, 85736, 85739, 85740, 85741, 85742, 85743, 85744, 85745, 85746, 85747, 85748, 85749, 85750, 85751, 85754 85775 & 85777. |
