U1252

U1252 is a designation used in various contexts, most notably within the **ISO 3166-2** standard for country codes and the **UN/LOCODE** system for identifying locations. Specifically, it refers to the **United States Postal Service (USPS) ZIP Code 1252**, which is associated with the town of **Poughkeepsie, New York**. This ZIP code covers a portion of the city, including parts of the Hudson Valley region.

In the broader context of **ISO 3166-2**, U1252 is not an official code, as the United States is represented by the top-level code "US" without further subdivisions in this standard. However, the number "1252" has been referenced in some unofficial or historical documentation, potentially due to confusion with other numbering systems or regional identifiers.

The ZIP code 1252 is part of the broader **125xx** series, which primarily serves areas in **Dutchess County, New York**, including Poughkeepsie, Rhinebeck, and nearby communities. ZIP codes in the United States are used for efficient mail sorting and delivery, with each code representing a specific geographic area.

Additionally, "U1252" may appear in other systems, such as **airport codes** or **military designations**, but it is not widely recognized in those contexts. For precise identification, it is important to verify the specific system or database being referenced, as similar codes can have different meanings depending on the framework.

For accurate postal or geographic information, consulting official sources like the **USPS** or **United States Census Bureau** is recommended.
