Dallas-Fort Worth ZIP code range

- 76001 to 76199: Fort Worth, Arlington and the rest of Tarrant County.
- Some ZIPs cross county lines, so a ZIP’s number range doesn’t always match its county.
How to find the right ZIP
- Use the full street address. The USPS “Look Up a ZIP Code” tool gives the authoritative answer.
- Don’t rely on city names. Fort Worth spans Tarrant, Denton and Parker Counties, and Dallas ZIPs cross into Collin County.
- Add the ZIP+4 for faster, more accurate delivery.
- Check the ZIP type. PO Box and unique ZIPs aren’t for street delivery to homes.
