lightweight python library to query city/state name by zip code?

Question

Pretty simple here, I\'m looking for a lightweight library that will allow me to lookup a city/state pairing for a given zip code. I am using django FWIW. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Try pyzipcode. An example from the home page:

>>> from pyzipcode import ZipCodeDatabase
>>> zcdb = ZipCodeDatabase()
>>> zipcode = zcdb[54115]
>>> zipcode.zip
u'54115'
>>> zipcode.city
u'De Pere'
>>> zipcode.state
u'WI'
>>> zipcode.longitude
-88.078959999999995
>>> zipcode.latitude
44.42042
>>> zipcode.timezone
-6
