I don’t know how long I’ll keep it up, but I’ve got a working towns within radius thing up and running. It’ll return all the towns in the 1990 census that are within a given radius of the specified zip code.

BTW, for those of you smart enough, I’ve made it so you can grab the results in XML for your own applications.
Clever! I can’t really benefit from it since I’m in the UK but how does it work? Does it pull directly from a public database or something?

Yeah, it pulls from a database, but the distances are calculated on the fly depending on the originating zip code.
