I did some looking and could not find something that did what I would need, if someone find something, let me know. Must work via zipcode or lat/lon

The maping and distance are based on zipcode which for most people makes it pretty acurate. We may try to add some mapping stuff, but it would need to map based on the zipcode, not the city for it to be useful.

Oh, and by "Map" I'm not talking about something with streets showing. Maybe the expensive software is the stuff that shows streets and such. We don't need that...
The Other Site Which Must Not Be Named has a very nice feature where, when you click on the city name, you're shown a blank map of the outline of the state, with a dot indicating the location of that zipcode. That's all that anyone would need. You'd be able to at least see which direction the people live in. For me, that's important because I'd like to know if they're uphill or downhill (I live in the foothills of a mountain range). |

Thanks for the reply, we're transplants and sometimes view a profile and haven't a clue where the town is.
