Hi temi, they come as a MySQL dump, but I do have some of them in CSV format plus I have a UK postcode data down to district level and loads of other postcode stuff I add in as a bonus..

Hey, u can get the free one from Maxmind . only that you may have to do some processing on the data ... alternatively there are paid one like Gedatasource from geodatasource which is costly compared to one from WebLocations Countries and Cities database from salpure..


i got the weblocations one. .. depends on your choice and budget..

For the UK you can get a free list from abcounties dot com. It comes as a database of UK counties, but is very easy to parse and contains all UK towns. I posted a bit more in another thread - look for "Shipping Module - doesnt support UK postcodes".

Cheers, Adam.
