You'll see the US's extended ZIP codes referred to as Zip+4, as they have nine digits instead of the usual five. So, 90210-1234 refers to a specific Delivery Sector and Delivery Segment within Beverly Hills. The segment can be a particular building or even just one floor of a building. Or, it can refer to all the buildings on one side of the street. It's up to the post office.
