About Michigan ZIP codes
Michigan is served by 912 ZIP codes that cover all 83 counties and approximately 718 cities across its iconic two-peninsula geography. ZIP codes in the state range from 48001 in the southeastern corner near Port Huron to 49970 in the far reaches of the Upper Peninsula, all falling within the 480–499 prefix band. The most ZIP-code-dense areas are found in the southeast, with Wayne County alone accounting for 79 ZIP codes due to the sprawling Detroit metro region. Whether you're looking up a ZIP code in bustling Grand Rapids or a quiet town along the Lake Superior shoreline, Michigan's postal system reflects the state's remarkable diversity of urban centers, farmland, and wilderness.
Michigan ZIP codes begin with prefixes ranging from 480 to 499, reflecting the state's geographic layout from southeast to northwest. Prefixes 480 through 485 generally cover the densely populated southeastern region, including the Detroit metropolitan area, while prefixes 486 through 489 serve central Michigan. The 490 through 499 prefixes span western and northern Michigan, including the Upper Peninsula.
Wayne County leads Michigan with 79 ZIP codes, which is unsurprising given that it is home to Detroit — the state's largest city — along with dozens of surrounding suburbs and communities that make it the most populous county in Michigan.
Quick facts
- Michigan is one of the few states whose ZIP codes span two disconnected landmasses — the Lower Peninsula and the Upper Peninsula — with Upper Peninsula ZIP codes primarily falling in the 498 and 499 prefixes.
- Detroit's main ZIP code 48201 was among the earliest assigned when the ZIP code system launched nationwide on July 1, 1963, and the city today uses over 30 distinct ZIP codes across its urban landscape.
- Michigan's ZIP code range of 48001 to 49970 is entirely contained within the 48xxx–49xxx band, making it one of the more compact and contiguous state ZIP allocations in the country.
