While these values should be definitive, we found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required. <3> The elevation is an estimate for the area around McDade - it will be higher in some places and lower in others. <4> 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.
