What city is 85044 in?
Most of ZIP code 85044 carries a Phoenix address — 100% of homes sold over the past year — but the ZIP spans 2 municipalities, so a mailing address here does not settle which city a given home is in.

Kyrene Elementary District serves most of ZIP code 85044 — it is the district listed on 84% of homes sold over the past year. The high school most often listed is Mountain Pointe High School.

Is 85044 served by APS or SRP?
Not APS — its certificated territory does not extend into ZIP code 85044. 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 85044 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 85044 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 85044?
ZIP code 85044 borders 85042, 85048, 85226, 85283, and 85284.
