  • Do any of you have a trusted one that i can buy. Not concerned w/ cost. i just need the data to be complete and correct. I need us and canada for now and perhaps more later.

  • anyone have an opinion about http://www.zip-codes.com/ ?

  • here's a free copy of mine; it's the CREATE TABLE and INSERT INTO statements i've psoted here on SSC a few times.

    it is based on a formatted version of this straight from the us census:

    CITYDATA_INSERTS.txt
