title: google geocoding api services with zip code 12593
body: <p>I am having an issue with google geo-loaction services. essentially we are using it for a zip code validator and there is an issue with zip code '12593'. This zip code is showing as being in Spain. (see screenshot here = <a href="http://prntscr.com/hkkafh" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://prntscr.com/hkkafh</a>. </p>
  
  <p>See xml here 
      <a href="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?&amp;address=12593" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?&amp;address=12593</a>)</p>
  
  <p>This zip code though is a USA based zip code as can be seen here = <a href="https://www.google.com/search?num=100&amp;q=us+zip+code+12593&amp;oq=us+zip+code+12593" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.google.com/search?num=100&amp;q=us+zip+code+12593&amp;oq=us+zip+code+12593</a> (google search results.)</p>
  
  <p>I understand that google is not the othority on zip codes however I would expect google to understand that this zip code may have two seperate locations. </p>
  
  <p>any idea How I can get the api to understand I am looking for zip codes specifically in the USA?</p>
