About ZIP 95815
ZIP boundaries are postal routes, not tax boundaries.
Sacramento's Measure U city tax is a general-fund tax, so it applies citywide even where the county district taxes do not. For destination-based sourcing, California sellers should confirm the rate by full street address rather than ZIP alone — a single ZIP can cross a city limit or a transit-district boundary, and the rate follows the boundary, not the mail route.
