The zip code requirement is scary ............ social profiling. Ask any
life insurance or general insurance agent .. some postal code areas in
at least one Canadian city I know of are said to find it hard to get
house and auto insurance. Want to buy a big ticket item on a credit card
and present a socially down scale zip / postal code you might end up
getting the cold shoulder!
