The boundaries of the ZIP Code can be changed, re-assigned, eliminated or overlapped with other ZIP Codes.

Our list of ZIP Codes for Queens Village includes: 11427, 11428 & 11429.

<6>	The area value has been supplied by the US Census Bureau and it can be different than the geographic boundaries of Queens Village. The value given by the Census Bureau reflects their statistical (or sampling) requirements. For example, if there is a cluster of people living just outside of the community's official boundary, the Census-defined area might be expanded to include that group.
