About Arkansas ZIP codes
Arkansas is assigned 525 ZIP codes ranging from 71601 in the southeastern part of the state all the way to 72959 in the northwest, covering all 75 counties and 482 cities. Every Arkansas ZIP code begins with either 71 or 72, making the state's postal footprint easy to recognize within the broader USPS numbering system. Pulaski County, home to the state capital Little Rock, leads the state with 24 ZIP codes, while the fast-growing northwest corner of the state sees strong representation through Washington and Benton counties. From the Mississippi Delta lowlands to the Ozark and Ouachita mountains, Arkansas ZIP codes reflect the state's diverse geography and mix of urban, suburban, and deeply rural communities.
Arkansas ZIP codes span prefixes from 716 to 729, reflecting the state's geographic layout from southeast to northwest. The lower prefixes (716–717) generally cover the southern and southeastern parts of the state, including the Pine Bluff area, while higher prefixes (720–722) cover the central region around Little Rock, and prefixes in the 728–729 range extend into the northwestern corner near Fayetteville and the Ozarks.
Pulaski County leads all Arkansas counties with 24 ZIP codes, which makes sense given that it is home to Little Rock, the state capital and largest city, along with several densely populated suburbs like North Little Rock and Sherwood.
Quick facts
- Arkansas ZIP codes span a relatively narrow numerical range — from 71601 to 72959 — all within just two prefix blocks (71x and 72x), making the state's postal geography compact and easy to identify at a glance.
- Little Rock, the state capital, uses multiple ZIP codes in the 722xx range, a prefix cluster that the USPS dedicated to Arkansas's most populous metropolitan area to accommodate its high volume of mail delivery.
- Arkansas has 525 ZIP codes serving 482 cities across 75 counties, meaning some ZIP codes serve rural routes or unincorporated communities that don't qualify as named cities, reflecting the state's largely rural character.
