If it's just by zipcode alone. Were currently working on a MLS mapping project that uses specific addresses and you definitely need the census data for that.
If you are just interested in zipcode functionality be sure to take into consideration the need for 10 digit vs 5. The last locator app we wrote wasn't as accurate as it could have been since it was based on 5 digit database. I was actually planning on posting some simple 5 digit locator code this weekend. Message me offlist if that's all you need.

I had one awhile a go in VB but its not working and would rather have it in Cold fusion. So it can run it daily when the data is downloaded.
