- Is any part of 85331 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 85331 contains FEMA zones A, AE, AE (Floodway), 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.
