San Tan Valley, AZ 85140

FYI ... San Tan Valley is the name of Arizona’s newest community ... ours! Just a little bit of background: San Tan Valley is Pinal County’s largest community in terms of overall population (80,000 residents). Prior, we were considered Queen Creek for postal purposes only. We actually live in unincorporated Pinal County and the town of Queen Creek would not incorporate us. So, San Tan Valley is comprised of a large area south of the incorporated area (meaning inside the town limits) of Queen Creek, Arizona. We got this new name because this area is not part of the Queen Creek town limits and there was often confusion about where people live. It was also good timing, as the Post Office needed to implement new zip codes to better serve the nation’s second fastest growing county, Pinal County.

The town/zip code change was effective July 1st ... but for those you who might procrastinate in updating your address book, you have about a year. :)
