Guest glenn95630 Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 For me it is 481 caches (zip code 95630). That is from Folsom, a suburb that is east of Sacramento. I messed around with this for a little while and think I may have found the 'winner'. There are 546 caches within 100 miles of zip code 95206. That is located in Stockton, California (about 60 miles south of Sacramento). That 100 miles circle includes the Bay area, Santa Cruz, Monterey, Napa Valley, Bodega Bay, Sacramento, and the Sacramento suburbs (Rocklin, Roseville). It also includes Yosemite, not that anyone would hide a cache there. As a sidenote, there are 60 caches within 10 miles of my zip code. Glenn95630 Quote Link to comment
Guest kablooey Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 quote:Originally posted by Watson: Only 491 by the bay. I guess it's all that ocean that lowers my count. Only 446 down in the South Bay. I think it's Sonoma county that's lowering your count. There are only like three caches between San Rafael and Santa Rosa. But, you probably get a bunch in Sacramento.

Guest dan_edwards_1966 Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 I live in Fort Collins, but I happen to know a zip for Colorado Springs of the top of my head. 80911 comes up with 88 Caches within 100 miles. Mine, 80525, comes up with 92 I pulled the first one from the USPS web site for Denver, 80002, and it comes up with 128. Quote Link to comment
Guest kam Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 I must have too much time on my hands today. I checked on my zipcode and came up with 84. Since the post office is 10 miles NW of me I checked 3 other zips that are closer. came up with 74, 70 and 78. after that I checked the furthest ones from me and came up with 73 from my own home. with that many maybe I need to spend more time hunting them instead of sitting here at the computer.

Guest gmagers Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 Hey, I thought there would be more....Oh well, I know what to do about that!!!! I need to place more caches I see that there are only 21 for me, I placed one of those, one is archived, three are only accessible by horseback (wilderness area - not sure if that is even within the spirit of the game), and six are in another country ------------------ "Because I said SO" Quote Link to comment

Guest blscearce Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 As of today, there are 519 zip codes that have more than 500 caches in them. Head of the list: 563 95366 560 95330 557 95368 556 95231 555 95336 554 95207 554 95206 553 95759 553 95356 553 95215 552 95203 551 95219 551 95209 551 95202 551 94531 550 95686 550 95205 I think those are all in California. You have to get down to about 500th place before you find a zip code without a leading 9: 08801, 08827 and 08829 have 503 caches. Quote Link to comment
Guest glenn95630 Posted January 15, 2002 Share Posted January 15, 2002 Very cool blscearce. Thanks for getting the data. Here is some location info: 95366 is Ripon, Califoria located 60 miles south of Sacramento and 60 miles east of Oakland. All the 95xxx and the 94xxx zip codes listed are Northern California. I assume they are zip codes that are in the Stockton, Lodi, Ripon, Modesto area and can cover both Sacramento and the Bay Area. The 08801 zip code is in the middle of New Jersey and appears to cover both New York City and Philadelphia. Quote Link to comment

I know I could plug in everybody?s zip-code to get my own answers, but how many caches do YOU have within 100 miles of your zip-code. I see some of you are approaching the 400 found mark and I was curious about the density of caches in your areas. I have 62 with in 100 miles of 99003.
