- Every home sold in ZIP code 85040 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.

- Roosevelt Elementary District serves most of ZIP code 85040 — it is the district listed on 76% of homes sold over the past year. The high school most often listed is South Mountain High School. District boundaries do not follow ZIP boundaries, so confirm the assignment for a specific address before relying on it.
- Is 85040 served by APS or SRP?
- Not APS — its certificated territory does not extend into ZIP code 85040. Most of the metro outside APS is served by SRP, but the filing this comes from defines APS's own boundary and does not name whoever serves the remainder, so confirm with the provider. Service territory follows historical boundaries rather than ZIP codes, so check the address.
- Is any part of 85040 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 85040 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.
