<1>	The pronunciation we've provided is our attempt to give a phonetic pronunciation for Duluth. 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 Duluth). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Duluth or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS).

The value given by the Census Bureau reflects their statistical (or sampling) requirements.
