Zip code 93619 returning 2 polygons

Question

Hi there,

We are using the Zip code API to draw the boundaries inside a map,

While doing this we found something that looks really weird, the postal code 93619 has 2 polygons, one near Fresno County (the one that looks right for us), and a little part on Earlimart, which looks really weird.

This is the API call:

Is this something expected? This is affecting how we are centering the map location:

Thanks for any guidance

If you have access to such a system [kinitopet](https://kinitopet.io/) or database, you can query it to retrieve the polygon data for zip code 93619 and determine how many polygons are returned.

Hello,

The zipcode 93619 is represented as a "MultiPolygon" which consists of multiple polygons. Your mapping sofrware(Google Maps, mapbox,etc.) Should have a geoJson library that would properly display on the map.
