NAVTEQ Carrier Routes details:

There are approximately 600,000 unique carrier routes in the US. Of these, approximately half are assigned to P.O. boxes, and the other approximately 300,000 carrier routes represent "boundaries" or delivery areas. Area size of the boundary ranges from the smallest walked by a city postal worker to the largest driven by a rural highway carrier. Since there are about 40,000 5 digit ZIP Codes in the US, there is an average of 15 carrier routes per ZIP Code. Carrier routes allow marketers to be much more precise than using a much larger ZIP Code area.

Note: Carrier routes use a 9 digit ID, which should not be confused with a ZIP+4.

Carrier Routes are updated monthly to the highest US Postal Services standards, including the CASS Certification process. They are aligned to NAVTEQ NAVSTREETS™ for both accurate and easy to use map presentation.
