Overview
Understanding ZIP code 45783
ZIP code 45783 is assigned to Tuppers Plains, OH, and falls within Meigs County.

At 399 residents per square mile spread over 0.544 square miles, 45783 reads as a small-town area. It is a sparsely populated postal code, and density shapes almost everything else on this page — how people get to work, whether they own or rent, and what housing costs.

Practical uses

Insurers use it to set premiums, since risk profiles vary geographically. Employers and marketers use it to define service areas. Government agencies use it to route benefits and organise reporting. If you have ever been asked for a postal code by a form that clearly does not intend to send you anything, this is why.

One caution worth repeating: a postal code is not a neighbourhood. 45783 may cover parts of several distinct areas, and a single neighbourhood in Tuppers Plains may be split across more than one code. Boundaries also shift as USPS adjusts delivery routes. Treat the figures here as describing a delivery area, which is what they actually measure.
