A zip code is a postal code used by the United States Postal Service (USPS) since 1963 to help the sorting of mail. The term ZIP, an acronym for Zone Improvement Plan, is properly written in capital letters and was chosen to suggest that the mail travels more efficiently, and therefore more quickly, when senders use the code in the correct manner.

The basic format consists of five digits. An extended ZIP+4 code was introduced in 1983 which includes the four basic digits plus four additional digits to identify a given geographic segment within a city, such as a sectional center facility (SCF) or a post office box (PO Box).

The basic format consists of five digits: an initial zero followed by four other digits. The use of numbers rather than letters is intended to make it easier for machine sorting and route sequencing. A ZIP Code is usually made up of one or more lines displayed in large black characters on a white background, although sometimes only four lines are used if they are sufficient to represent all parts of the address.

The municipalities of Greenland are the second-level administrative divisions of Greenland. They are defined by geographical areas, each comprising an average of 16 settlements (smaller than villages), and they are divided into 3 regions: West Greenland, Northeast Greenland and East Greenland. The municipalities have their own governments and assemblies, with elected mayors. The municipalities comprise 179 settlements (2018) with a total population of 47,512 (2018).

Greenland has three regions: West Greenland Region, Northeast Greenland Region and East Greenland Region. These three regions are part of the two larger administrative areas: Nord for West and Northeast for Northeast. Each region can be further divided into subregions called Syssel (singular Syssel). The municipalities in each of these subregions are further divided into Kommuner (singular Kommune; “municipality”). Each municipality has its own government led by a mayor and municipal council which oversees matters such as education, social welfare and culture but its budget remains under the control of the central government.

The largest municipality by land area is also Qaasuitsup Municipality which covers over one-third of Greenland’s landmass.
