Quick answer
Jackson, Mississippi has 9 US ZIP codes, running 39201 to 39213 inside Hinds County. Each carries the same 8% combined sales tax rate. ZIP boundaries are postal delivery routes, not tax boundaries — a code that crosses a city or district line can hold more than one rate, so destination-based sellers should validate by full street address.

Jackson ZIP code footprint
How Jackson's ZIP footprint compares with national norms.
9 ZIP codes are listed for Jackson, covering a population of 143,776. They span 13 numbers, 39201 through 39213. The median covered metro on this site lists 12 codes; Jackson ranks 69 of 94 by count. Large metros carry more codes because USPS splits a delivery area once carrier volume outgrows one route cluster, not because the city is geographically bigger.
All 9 codes share the 392 prefix. That first trio is the sectional center facility — the USPS plant that sorts mail for the region — so every piece addressed to Jackson passes through one facility. The range runs 39201 to 39213.
ZIP boundaries are carrier routes, not city limits. USPS redraws them when delivery volume shifts; Mississippi redraws tax and municipal lines on a different schedule entirely. A Jackson mailing address does not prove an address sits inside Jackson city limits, and a single code can straddle the boundary.

Why ZIP-based rate lookup is unreliable
USPS redraws ZIP codes when carrier routes change. Tax jurisdictions move with annexations, county lines and voter-approved districts. The two never line up. In Mississippi, local jurisdictions set their own increments, so remote sellers should validate the full delivery address against the Mississippi Department of Revenue lookup at the time of sale.
