The area postcodes used in France are made up of five digits - ex: 62510, 18300. The two first numbers indicate the number of the 'département' (a French administrative subdivision). The three last ones are the town code: 100/200/300 etc.. for the main towns (at the time the postcode was created), 110/120/130 for the market towns (around the 100 area for the 100s series, etc...). Hence 18300 used to be the third-largest town in the département number 18, while 62510 is a market town around the fifth-largest town of the 62th department. Small villages have no postcode of their own, but use the one of the town serving their area. The post office also puts the 'unused' numbers in use to sort the mail, assigning them to administrative bodies or quangos.
