Maps and 3 digit zip clodes

Hi,

 

Data by specific zip codes gets quite messy but works well when looking at USA mapping. We have started looking at state level business via 3-digit zip codes. I am consistently running into issues with many states not working with 3-digit zips. Often times 2 zip-3's will overlap one another. This feels odd because zip code (5 digits) works flawlessly. 

 

I have tried making it into a hierarchy of Country - State - Zip-3 - Zip Code and every other alteration of those in a hiearchy. 

 

I have tried combining columns to be "<country>, <state>, <Zip3>" and this too leads to the same results.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I am not sure what desired result would you want, how about to display the data using Filled map. Could you please share your sample data and desired output screenshots for further analysis? You can also upload sample pbix to OneDrive and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.

 

Please read this post to get your answer quickly: How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly.

 

Best Regards,

Amy
