Collectors list

Where I live, my zip code is 15005, which is for Baden. I actually live
about 5-10 miles away from Baden, and just have a Baden address because
Economy (small) doesn't have a post office. The neighbor across the street
has a Sewickley zip code, and my neighbor next door has a Freedom zip code.
It all depended on when the house was built and when the person moved in.
Going by a zip code isn't a very accurate way to find people where I live
(although most places are probably more organized).
