Every home sold in ZIP code 85043 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 85043?

Is 85043 served by APS or SRP?
Not APS — its certificated territory does not extend into ZIP code 85043. 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 85043 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 85043 contains FEMA zones A, AE, AE (Floodway), AH. 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 85043?
ZIP code 85043 borders 85009, 85035, 85041, 85339, and 85353.
