That is a town called Kenilworth in New Jersey.

Zip codes cover a much larger area than Postcodes.

Zip codes in general cover an entire city/town. Town we lived in was a rather large area and just had one zip. Our nearest town was 45 minute drive away and our zip stopped about 5 miles away from there.

A full zip code like a postcode will be nnnnn-nnnn, but rhe second 4 digits are rarely used.

Yes.

If you want to verify the address, put the details in here: https://tools.usps.com/go/ZipLookupAction!input.ac...
When it gives you the results, if it gives you a ZIP+4 (which will be 07033-xxxx) then use that, as it is more specific, but just the regular 5 digit you have will work.

So rarely that Google Maps doesn't recognise (or should that be recognize) it!
