Where can I find ZIP code data for ZCTAs?
Statistical data for ZCTAs are available from: Access data through data.census.gov. This new platform on data.census.gov is based on overwhelming feedback to streamline the way you get data and digital content from Census Bureau.

What do ZCTAs stand for in the census?
For the Census 2000 ZCTAs the Census Bureau created ZCTAs that ended in “XX” to represent large areas of land without ZIP Codes or “HH” to represent large areas of water without ZIP Codes. For the 2010 Census, large water bodies and large unpopulated land areas do not have ZCTAs.
What kind of data does Google Earth use?
KML is a file format used to display geographic data in a tool such as Google Earth or Google Maps. All cartographic boundary files are available in KML format starting in 2013. These BEFs are the whole 2010 census tabulation block representations of the plans as submitted to the U.S. Census Bureau.
Are there any free Google Maps data extractors?

How are ZCTA and micropolitan statistical areas related?
As only the intersections between the two entities are shown in the relationship file, the sum of the part columns for all records representing a specific ZCTA or metropolitan/micropolitan statistical area may not add up to the totals for the ZCTA or metropolitan/micropolitan statistical area.
How does the relationship file work for ZCTA?
As only the intersections between the two entities are shown in the relationship file, the sum of the part columns for all records representing a specific ZCTA or place may not add up to the totals for the ZCTA or place. As Places are not wall-to-wall entities and do not cover the entire nation, this file may not contain all ZCTAs.
