The BrainyZip website (an extension of Google), is a database of zip codes. The site allows you to either browse or input any zip code that’s currently valid in the United States. Once you type or click one, up pops the size of the area, not to mention the demographics, population density and the ‘general characteristics’ of said region.
The outline of this site seems like it would be very useful to students for the gathering of quick facts to use in a report or diagram as it doesn’t give you actual dates, but a brief glance of educational, social, economic and housing data. Once you click on the respective links, however, you are keyed into an abundance of information on the subject needed (i.e. how many structures were built and when, as well as the type of fuel each used). Enough to fill any report. ^^
