Lexington North Carolina ZIP Codes

Lexington holds 4 ZIP codes, all inside one county and one postal prefix.

We do not publish a delivery type (standard, PO box, unique) or a neighbourhood for each ZIP. USPS delivery-type products are licensed, and no clean-rights source maps ZIP codes to neighbourhoods — so the Lexington codes above are listed without a column we would have to invent.

Scope every ZIP code recorded for Lexington. Source GeoNames US postal codes (2026-07 postal dump) and Census 2024 county Gazetteer (2024 Gazetteer). Updated 15 July 2026. ZIP codes are delivery-route groupings, not areas; the boundaries implied by any ZIP map are approximations.

Every Lexington ZIP code begins 272. Those first three digits identify the sectional center facility that processes mail for this part of North Carolina. Statewide that range covers 55 ZIP codes, so Lexington accounts for 7% of it.
