About Pennsylvania ZIP codes
Pennsylvania is home to 1,507 ZIP codes that span 67 counties and serve over 1,185 cities and towns across the Commonwealth. Ranging from 15001 in the western part of the state near Pittsburgh to 19611 in the eastern reaches near Reading, these ZIP codes reflect Pennsylvania's vast geographic and demographic diversity. Allegheny County, anchored by Pittsburgh, claims the highest concentration with 116 ZIP codes, followed by Philadelphia County with 79 and Montgomery County with 58. With deep roots in American postal history — Benjamin Franklin himself served as the nation's first Postmaster General from Philadelphia — Pennsylvania's ZIP code system continues to be one of the most extensive and historically significant in the country.
Pennsylvania ZIP codes span prefixes 150 through 196, moving generally from west to east across the state. Prefixes beginning with 150–159 cover the western region around Pittsburgh and its surrounding areas, 160–169 serve the north-central and northwestern parts of the state, 170–179 cover the central corridor including Harrisburg and the Susquehanna Valley, and 180–196 encompass the eastern portion of the state from the Poconos through the Lehigh Valley and into the Philadelphia metropolitan area.
Allegheny County leads Pennsylvania with 116 ZIP codes, reflecting its status as the state's second most populous county and home to Pittsburgh, a major metropolitan area with numerous distinct neighborhoods, boroughs, and suburban communities that each require their own postal designations.
Quick facts
- Pennsylvania played a pivotal role in American postal history — Benjamin Franklin, a Philadelphia resident, served as the first Postmaster General of the United States in 1775, and Philadelphia was home to one of the nation's earliest post offices.
- Pittsburgh's ZIP codes all begin with 150–152, and the city's unique geography of neighborhoods nestled between rivers and hills contributes to its surprisingly high number of distinct ZIP codes for a mid-sized city.
- Pennsylvania's ZIP code range of 15001 to 19611 spans nearly 4,600 numbers, but only 1,507 of those are actively assigned, meaning roughly two-thirds of possible codes in that range are unassigned or reserved for future use.
