Reading a Nebraska ZIP code
Nebraska holds 620 ZIP codes between 68001 and 69367, spread over 93 counties. Omaha leads the state with 48 codes, ahead of Lincoln with 29. Every code here opens with the digit 6: that opening number is the national postal region Nebraska belongs to, the next two digits name the sectional center that sorts the mail, and the final two point to the local office. A ZIP+4 suffix narrows delivery to a block face. Boundaries follow carrier routes rather than city limits, which is why Omaha spreads across 48 codes while some rural codes cross county lines.
