What city is 85262 in?
Every home sold in ZIP code 85262 over the past year carried a Scottsdale address. Note that a mailing address is not the same as a city limit — check the parcel itself for jurisdiction, taxes and services.

Cave Creek Unified District serves most of ZIP code 85262 — it is the district listed on 100% of homes sold over the past year. The high school most often listed is Cactus Shadows High School. District boundaries do not follow ZIP boundaries, so confirm the assignment for a specific address before relying on it.
Is 85262 served by APS or SRP?
Both, depending where. About 72% of ZIP code 85262 falls inside APS's certificated territory and the rest does not — the boundary runs through this ZIP rather than around it. Service territory follows historical boundaries rather than ZIP codes, so check the address.
Is any part of 85262 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 85262 contains FEMA zones A, AE, AE (Floodway), AO, D. 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 85262?
ZIP code 85262 borders 85255, 85263, 85266, 85331, and 85377.
