| <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 Lufkin). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Lufkin or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS). Our list of ZIP Codes for Lufkin includes: 75901, 75902, 75903 & 75904. |

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