The boundaries of the ZIP Code can be changed, re-assigned, eliminated or overlapped with other ZIP Codes. So keep in mind that any given ZIP Code is only 'loosely' associated with a city (such as Elk Grove). When looking for a ZIP Code, whether Elk Grove or elsewhere, it's always best to check the website of the United States Postal Service (USPS). Our list of ZIP Codes for Elk Grove includes: 95624, 95758 & 95759.
