[edit]

Even though the postal address says "Adelphi, MD" (https://www.umgc.edu/ , 3501 University Blvd. East, Adelphi, MD 20783 ) it's actually physically in College Park, MD (see "UMUC" at https://www.roads.maryland.gov/Town_Gridmaps/TownMap_037_CollegePark.pdf). As per https://web.archive.org/web/19961031170034/http://www.ci.houston.tx.us/annexation/annexation_FAQ.html , the USPS city name =/ the municipality/place where a something is located.

  • "The U.S. Postal Service establishes ZIP codes and mailing addresses in order to maximize the efficiency of their system, not to recognize jurisdictional boundaries." (and see the context behind this: The City of Houston annexed Kingwood, but the mailing addresses did not change)
