## zip-code-info This gem returns the state and city of the Sectional Center Facility for a given zip code. It does not use an external service. The zip code data has been taken from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_code_prefixes](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_code_prefixes) ### Usage In your Gemfile gem "zip-code-info" The code runs out of a Singleton class. Right now you can call these two methods. ```ruby ZipCodeInfo.instance.state_for '99163' #=> WA ``` ```ruby ZipCodeInfo.instance.scf_city_for '99163' #=> Spokane ``` ### Limitations * The city returned is the city where the USPS Sectional Center Facility (SCF) is located. * Sometimes the state that a zip code is bound to for USPS is different from the actual state the zip code is in. There are plans to provide both states.
