Overview

The zip code system for Tennessee, like the rest of the United States, is a numerical code used to facilitate the efficient sorting and delivery of mail. Tennessee is divided into various zip code regions, each corresponding to specific geographic areas. The first digit of the zip code generally represents a group of states, with Tennessee falling into the 3-3-7 pattern. The second and third digits further refine the region, while the final two digits pinpoint specific post offices or delivery areas within that region. For example, zip codes beginning with 372 and 381 are commonly associated with Nashville and Memphis, respectively. This systematic approach to zip codes streamlines the postal process, helping ensure accurate and timely mail delivery throughout the state.
