<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 Saint Petersburg). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Saint Petersburg or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS). Our list of ZIP Codes for Saint Petersburg includes: 33701, 33702, 33703, 33704, 33705, 33706, 33707, 33708, 33709, 33710, 33711, 33712, 33713, 33714, 33715, 33728, 33729, 33730, 33731, 33732, 33733, 33736, 33738, 33740, 33741, 33742, 33747 & 33784.
