The town is known for its fountain, which can shoot water about 560 ft high. In 2018 it was named an International Dark Sky Community.
Fountain Hills ZIP Codes
Fountain Hills mailing addresses use ZIP code 85268. A mailing address does not always match city or town limits, so we confirm the jurisdiction from county records for each home.
School Districts
Fountain Hills Unified School District serves the town, with McDowell Mountain Elementary, Fountain Hills Middle School and Fountain Hills High School. Boundaries do not follow ZIP codes, so we check assigned schools with the district for each address.
