Footnotes ...

<1>If you're interested in how the shape of Washington's counties, including San Juan, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
<2>When there's a risk of an area code running out of phone numbers, an 'Overlay Area Code' is created that has the same geographic boundaries as the existing area code. In this case, the 360 code has been Overlayed with the 564 area code. New phone numbers in the False Bay area will be assigned with one of these codes: 360 or 564. As a result, placing a call in the False Bay area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).
<3>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 community (such as False Bay). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether False Bay or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS).
