Miscellaneous Information for Needham Heights ...

  • GNIS ID for Needham Heights: 612344
  • GNIS ID for Norfolk County: 606937
  • GNIS ID for State of Massachusetts: 606926

  • State Code: 25 (Massachusetts)
  • County Code: 021 (Norfolk County)
  • Place Code: 44175 (Needham Heights)
  • State & County Code: 25/021 (Massachusetts / Norfolk County)

• The US Postal Service ZIP Code ...
  • While some people have used a ZIP code to identify a community, the purpose of the ZIP code was to make mail delivery more efficient by grouping addresses together. Although the ZIP Code doesn't specifically identify a community like Needham Heights, it does identify addresses that are in (or near) Needham Heights. It's important to remember that the boundaries of a ZIP Code can be changed, re-assigned or overlapped with other ZIP Codes.
  • The ZIP code for Needham Heights:02494<3>

• Census ZCTA Codes ...
  • The US Census Bureau created statistical entities that they call ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) and these ZCTAs are frequently confused with the ZIP codes that come from the US Postal Service (USPS).
  • ZCTAs were first created for the 2000 Census and at that time, they were based upon the USPS ZIP codes. While largely covering the same areas, the boundaries of a ZCTA do not necessarily match the boundaries of a postal ZIP code with the same number. For example, while a postal ZIP code can cross a county or state line, a Census ZCTA can not. They should be treated as separate entities with no correlation between them.
