Two pairs on this list share a ZIP. Burnettown and Warrenville both use 29851, since a single Horse Creek Valley post office serves both towns. Perry and Salley both use 29137, delivered from Salley’s post office three miles away. Monetta also straddles a county line — its 205 residents split roughly evenly between Aiken County and Saluda County, and only the Aiken County share counts toward this page. North Augusta likewise crosses into Edgefield County, though almost all of its population lives on the Aiken side.<\/p>\n
