- The Magic of Google (and Maybe a Little Bribery): Just kidding about the bribery, but Google Maps is your best friend here. Type in your Milwaukee address and let the map gods reveal the magical zip code.
- Zip Code Sleuth Websites: There are a bunch of websites (think Zip-Code.com or Zillow) that can sniff out the zip code for your Milwaukee address with just a sprinkle of street magic.
Remember: Even with all this detective work, there's a slight chance your address might straddle two zip codes. In that case, don't panic! Just use the most common zip code for your neighborhood.
