Overview_Description:
Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
Zip code polygons and labels contained in this layer refer to those areas to which a zip code can be attributed to on the ground. Zip codes 28802, 28810, 28813, 28814, 28815 and 28816 do not correspond to any given area. These zip codes are used for mailing addresses that contain a post office (P.O.) box number. The following is a list of these zip codes and the post offices they correspond to:

28802 - Asheville (Downtown) 28810 - Asheville 28813 - Asheville (Biltmore) 28814 - Asheville (Grace) 28815 - Asheville (Oteen) 28816 - Asheville (West Asheville)
