Danvers Postal Directory Coverage
The official postal material establishes two labels relevant to Danvers, but it does not draw a municipal boundary map for either one. The current USPS L007 list includes 01923 for Danvers. USPS facility material also lists 01937 for Hathorne. Treat the second label as a postal locality and facility clue. The full address lookup is the required check for a street near the town edge or the Maple Street corridor.
| ZIP | Authoritative label or use | Post office or facility | Danvers note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01923 | Current USPS list: DANVERS MA; Town Hall and civic addresses use it | Danvers Post Office, 17 Conant Street | A postal boundary is not the town boundary |
| 01937 | Hathorne postal locality and facility in USPS material | Hathorne Post Office, 496 Maple Street | Street-level Danvers coverage was not established in the official sources |
No other ZIP was established as serving a Danvers street in the sources reviewed. There is also no verified local ZIP population table, postal realignment history, PO-box-only code, unique-institution code, or official ZIP-boundary GIS layer. Leaving those items unclaimed is more useful than turning a facility label into a town-line conclusion.
Check Danvers ZIP Code Delivery
USPS ZIP Lookup is the authoritative first stop for a complete address. It offers By Address, By City and State, and Cities by ZIP modes. The By Address option requires the street, city, and state and also accepts an apartment, suite, other unit detail, and an optional ZIP. Use the complete street form rather than trying to infer a code from a parcel map or town label.
| USPS mode | Fields | Required input | What the result means |
|---|---|---|---|
| By Address | Company, street address, apartment/suite/other, city, state, ZIP | Street address, city, state | Recommended mailing city and ZIP for the supplied address |
| By City and State | City and state | City and state | Postal ZIP result for that city and state query |
| Cities by ZIP | ZIP | ZIP | Postal city labels associated with the supplied code |
The USPS address tool is shown below.
USPS expressly warns that the result does not confirm a person or company at an address. It is a mailing recommendation. Record the postal code and recommended city label, then use the physical street and parcel in Danvers records when the next question concerns property, a permit, or a historical address.
Danvers ZIP Code 01923
01923 is the clear Danvers mailing label in the current USPS list. It is also the code used by Town Hall, the Clerk, the Assessing Department, and other civic forms. That makes it a useful postal cross-check when copying a current municipal address. It does not make every 01923 address a municipal record, and it does not establish which person receives mail there.
For a public-record request, use the specific office, street or record category, and date range rather than requesting a ZIP-wide list. The Town Clerk accepts requests in writing, by mail, in person, or at publicrecords@danversma.gov. Include the preferred format and contact information so the Clerk can respond with any itemized fee estimate. A postal code can help describe an address, but it does not replace the precise information a custodian needs to locate a record.
Danvers ZIP Code 01937
USPS facility material identifies a Hathorne Post Office at 496 Maple Street and the 01937 Hathorne label. The research did not locate an official street-level map showing which addresses in or near Danvers use that code. A 01937 result should therefore be checked through the full address form, not treated as a fixed neighborhood border or an automatic Danvers address.
This is a useful local postal caution. A delivery area can cross municipal lines, while civic records remain organized by the town, court district, registry district, precinct, or parcel. Use the exact USPS result for mailing, then use the municipality shown on the underlying record to choose the appropriate office. Do not substitute a postal locality for a legal jurisdiction.
Danvers ZIP Code Search Steps
A ZIP narrows an address question, but it does not create a roster of residents. Once an address is confirmed, the next search depends on the record type. Patriot Properties uses street, parcel, owner, and property filters rather than a dedicated ZIP field. The state voter tool requires a ZIP only for an individual name-and-date-of-birth confirmation. Both routes have important limits.
- Normalize the full street address, apartment or suite detail, city, and state, then run USPS By Address.
- Keep the USPS mailing label and the municipality as separate notes. Compare the returned address with the relevant Danvers civic form if needed.
- For a property question, search the physical street or parcel in Patriot Properties and use Danvers GIS for map context.
- For a named voter question, use the exact name, date of birth, and five-digit ZIP in the state tool. Do not infer anything from a failed match.
- For title evidence, search the street or party at the Essex South Registry, then retain the book/page and source date.
When the ZIP has narrowed a question to a named street, the Danvers street directory provides the separate address-record workflow. The postal result remains only one part of the record trail.
Danvers ZIP Code Portal Limits
The local portals do not support a broad person search by postal code. Their field choices show why a ZIP must be used carefully. USPS handles postal formatting. Patriot and GIS help with physical parcels and map context. The voter system uses ZIP as an individual-verification input. None of those tools creates a complete list of people associated with a ZIP.
| Portal | ZIP field? | Result type | Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Patriot Properties | No dedicated ZIP field observed | Street, parcel, owner, and property-filter results | Not a ZIP roll or proof of occupancy |
| Danvers GIS | Not located in the dynamic tool review | Map and parcel browsing | No ZIP-wide export or filter established |
| Massachusetts voter lookup | Yes, required for an individual | Registration match attempt | Not a ZIP-wide list; protected fields excluded |
| USPS Lookup | Yes, as mode or optional address input | Mailing city and ZIP recommendation | Does not confirm a person or company |
The Town's annual census and local voter material are different record systems. A municipal request must be narrowed to a lawful field set and record purpose. Statewide voter-file access is restricted, and the public state tool is deliberately limited to a one-person search.
Danvers ZIP Code Boundaries
A ZIP boundary answers a delivery question. It does not define a town line, precinct, zoning district, neighborhood name, or parcel boundary. The Danvers precinct map is for elections. The zoning map labels planning districts. The GIS parcel lines are informational and are not legal boundaries. Keep each field in its own place when comparing records.
- ZIP and ZIP+4
- A five-digit ZIP identifies a postal delivery area. ZIP+4 adds a more specific delivery segment; neither is a municipal boundary.
- PO-box ZIP
- A code used for postal boxes rather than ordinary street delivery. No Danvers PO-box-only code was established in the reviewed sources.
- Unique ZIP
- A postal code assigned to one organization or institution. No Danvers unique ZIP was established in the reviewed sources.
- Carrier route
- A postal delivery sequence used to organize mail. It is not a town district, property boundary, or resident list.
For land or civic records, follow the actual property street, parcel, court location, or municipal custodian. A code that works for mail may still point across a town line. That distinction is especially important when a mailing label differs from the governmental unit holding the record.
Danvers ZIP Code Historic Names
Modern postal labels should not be pushed backward into older sources. Danvers research can encounter Salem Village, Danvers District, South Danvers, Danvers, or Peabody, because the local boundaries changed over time. Salem Village became a separate parish in 1672; Danvers district formed in 1752, the town in 1757, and Peabody separated in 1855. A historical address should retain the place name and date printed by its source.
This place-name quirk matters when tracing an old directory, deed, newspaper, or family record. Begin with the historical jurisdiction, then compare it with a modern parcel or USPS address only when the date supports that bridge. The Danvers Archival Center history explains the boundary sequence. A modern 01923 label is useful for current mail, not a replacement for an earlier jurisdiction.
Danvers ZIP Code Privacy
Postal formatting is not identity confirmation. Do not publish a living person's unit number, private contact detail, or precise home location simply because a mailing tool returns a code. A property owner can receive mail somewhere else, and a protected voter or Address Confidentiality Program participant has special privacy protections. Use the smallest fact that answers the lawful question.
Postal limit. A Danvers postal result is a mailing recommendation, not evidence that a person or company is present at the address.
For a potential records scam, verify the address and office through an official Town, Registry, court, or Commonwealth link rather than a number in a message. The postal code can help check the address format, but it cannot validate a demand, title claim, or identity. Preserve the record source and date before drawing any conclusion.
