:I did some further reading of your responses.  I don't think
:it breaks it down by street address.  From their FAQ:
:
:Does ZIP/CITY match addresses at the street address level?
:
:No, ZIP/CITY does not contain street level address
:information. It does not match input addresses to a street
:database. ZIP/CITY does provide every ZIP Code used by the US
:Postal Service along with matching city name, state code,
:telephone area code, time zone, and latitude/longitude.

:Mark,
:
:We are using Zip/City by WorksRight software.  Price includes
:all source, numerous API's and frequent updates.  Simple to
:use, highly extensible, cheap. http://worksright.com/
:
:Here is a sample of what they have:
:- Give it a zip code and a distance and it will output to a
:file all zip codes within that distance.
:- Give it a zip code, a distance, the name of a file, and the
:name of the field holding the key to that file, and the name
:of the field holding the zip code to that file; and it will
:output to a file all the keys within that distance.
:- Pass it two zip codes and get the distance back:  miles or kilometers
:- Give it a zip code and get back the city and state.  Useful
:for validation, standardization, or even faster data entry.
:Will also do the opposite.
:- Use it to see if an area code is valid for that zip code.
:- Give it your current area code and exchange it will tell you
:the new area code the phone company gave you
:- etc...
