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 85028 in?
Every home sold in ZIP code 85028 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 85028?
Paradise Valley Unified District serves most of ZIP code 85028 — it is the district listed on 72% of homes sold over the past year. The high school most often listed is Shadow Mountain High School. District boundaries do not follow ZIP boundaries, so confirm the assignment for a specific address before relying on it.
Is 85028 served by APS or SRP?
APS. Arizona Public Service's certificated service territory covers effectively all of ZIP code 85028. Service territory follows historical boundaries rather than ZIP codes, so check the address.
Is any part of 85028 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 85028 contains FEMA zones A, AE, AE (Floodway). 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 85028?
ZIP code 85028 borders 85016, 85018, 85020, 85022, 85032, 85253, and 85254.
