What is a postnumber anyways?

I was looking at this competition for one of my favorite bands, and one of the fields that I had to fill out was a “postnumber” field. This confused me, as there was also an address field and a city field… however, there wasn’t anything that said “state”. Of course, the band is Finnish, but that doesn’t explain anything.

In Finland when we are giving our adress somewhere, they always ask for the street where I live, the town I live, and the post number I have.

The post number depends on what city you are living in (some bigger towns have many different post numbers).

For example, if you lived in Finland in a town named Lohja, the post number would be 08100 or 08150, depending on what part of the town you live in.

I don’t know if you guys there in America (I’m assuming you’re American) have these post numbers, but sometimes when I have filled an American online application it has asked my post number.
