A single ZIP-wide median is a starting point rather than a guide to any particular street, so it is worth looking at comparable sales close to the address you are considering.
- What city is 85012 in?
- Every home sold in ZIP code 85012 over the past year carried a Phoenix address. Note that a mailing address is not the same as a city limit — check the parcel itself for jurisdiction, taxes and services.
- What school district serves 85012?
- ZIP code 85012 is split across 2 school districts, with no single one covering most of it — Osborn Elementary District is the most frequently listed at 55% of sales. District boundaries do not follow ZIP boundaries, so the assignment has to be checked address by address here.
- Is 85012 served by APS or SRP?
- APS. Arizona Public Service's certificated service territory covers effectively all of ZIP code 85012. Service territory follows historical boundaries rather than ZIP codes, so check the address.
- Is any part of 85012 in a flood zone?
- Parts of it are, which is true of most of the Phoenix valley — the desert washes that carry monsoon runoff are mapped as high-hazard even where they cross otherwise dry ground. ZIP code 85012 contains FEMA zone A. That says nothing about any particular house: most homes in these ZIPs sit outside the mapped areas. A lender will require flood insurance only if the property itself is inside one, so the check that matters is on the address, not the ZIP.
- What ZIP codes border 85012?
- ZIP code 85012 borders 85004, 85006, 85013, 85014, 85020, and 85021.
