Shares ZIP codes with Green Bay, Bellevue, Ledgeview, Luxemburg Village, Scott Town (Brown County), Green Bay Town, Luxemburg Town, Montpelier, Red River, Eaton Town (Brown County) and Union Town (Door County).
Town boundaries don’t always match ZIP codes: a ZIP code can cross into neighboring towns, and a town can share a ZIP code with its neighbors. Facts describe the town itself; market figures describe whole ZIP codes.
