I am having an issue with google geo-loaction services. essentially we are using it for a zip code validator and there is an issue with zip code '12593'. This zip code is showing as being in Spain. (see screenshot here = http://prntscr.com/hkkafh.
See xml here https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?&address=12593)
This zip code though is a USA based zip code as can be seen here = https://www.google.com/search?num=100&q=us+zip+code+12593&oq=us+zip+code+12593 (google search results.)
I understand that google is not the othority on zip codes however I would expect google to understand that this zip code may have two seperate locations.
any idea How I can get the api to understand I am looking for zip codes specifically in the USA?
