Compare ZIP 95013 in Coyote, California (CA). Coyote sits in zone 9b with winter lows of 25 to 30 F. That climate lets homeowners plant citrus and palms. Locally, that points buyers toward trees that handle heat, not cold. Here in Wisconsin, the selection focuses entirely on cold-hardy species.

Consider ZIP 06063 in Barkhamsted, Connecticut (CT). Barkhamsted is also zone 6a with similar winter lows. The key difference is humidity and soil moisture.
