How to Find Distance Between ZIP Codes

Type in the first and second ZIP Code then click the Show button. The map will then display the location of the two ZIP Codes and also show the routes for:

• Land transport - by car and/or boat
• As the crow flies - the straight distance between the points

You will also see the distance displayed below the map for the distance as the crow flies and also by land transport. You can then type in more postcodes and click the show button to see more distances.

I love this! Any chance there is an api so an application can connect with it on the fly?

This is a useful tool that I use to check the built in calculation I am using. For the people asking about being able to calculate distance between zips (as the crow flies), I'm sure this can be done in other programs. But I've done it using a custom function in FileMaker (Claris) that someone else created and shared for free that just needs the parameters of the Lat and Lon for both zip codes. And I know of sources that can provide that info by zip for all of the USA (for a fee though, maybe somewhere it's free). Good luck

Useful tool. However, would be much more useful if bulk uploads would be available
By Alex on 3rd April 2020

Hi, that idea has been rescinded.

How far away are you to Bulk uploads??

Hi, it will not be possible. It would be a big drain on server resources and more likely that such a new feature on this free page will be used for commercial purposes.

What would be wonderful is to get an average of gas prices between two different zip codes. Say total average of reg gas prices multiplied by the number of miles?
By Anne on 28th September 2019

SOME OF THE LAND TRANSPORT DISTANCE BETWEEN 2 ZIP CODES IS WRONG. EXAMPLE - 36277 TO 36207 IS APPROX 11 MILES. BUT YOUR SITE SAYS 17.32
