If you’re moving to Colorado Springs, sending mail, or just trying to figure out which part of town a listing is actually in, the zip codes tell you a lot. After two decades here, I still use them as shorthand for “which side of the city” someone means. Here’s the full list, grouped by area so it’s actually useful, not just a wall of numbers.
Quick answer: Colorado Springs has about 30 residential zip codes: roughly 80903 through 80951: plus a few PO-box and military codes like 80901 and 80913. The core of the city sits in 80903–80910, and the newer north and east suburbs run 80918–80951. The main downtown zip is 80903.

A few things worth knowing
- 80901 isn’t a neighborhood, it’s the non-geographic zip used for downtown P.O. boxes and general delivery, so you’ll see it on mail but not on a house.
- The west side (80904) is where Old Colorado City, Garden of the Gods, and the Manitou Springs foothills sit, it’s the historic, walkable heart of town.
- The far north (80920, 80921, 80924) is the newer, fast-growing side near Briargate, Flying Horse, and the Air Force Academy.
- All of these share the same city, county (El Paso), and area codes (719), so your zip mostly affects mail, school district, and which neighborhood vibe you’re in.
School districts by area (why the zip matters if you have kids)
For a lot of families, the real reason the zip code matters is the school district, and Colorado Springs isn’t one district, it’s several. Which one serves an address roughly follows the part of town:
- Academy District 20 — the north side (Briargate, Rockrimmon, Flying Horse, near the Air Force Academy): the 80918–80924 zips.
- Colorado Springs District 11 — the central and older core (downtown, west side, near-east): 80903–80910.
- Falcon District 49 — the east and northeast (Powers, Stetson Hills, Banning Lewis, Falcon): 80922, 80923, 80938, 80951.
- Harrison District 2 — the southeast: parts of 80910, 80911, 80916, and 80925.
- Cheyenne Mountain District 12 — the southwest and Broadmoor area: 80906 and 80905.
- Manitou Springs District 14 — Manitou: 80829.
One important caveat: district lines cross zip-code boundaries, and a single zip can sit in two districts. If schools are driving your decision, confirm the exact school for a specific address with the district before you commit.
Do zip codes change your sales tax or utilities?
Inside Colorado Springs city limits, sales tax is set city-wide — it doesn’t change from one zip to the next. What does change is whether an address is actually inside the city at all. Some zips that read as “Colorado Springs” for mail — like Manitou Springs (80829) or the unincorporated El Paso County pockets in 80908, 80926, and 80928 — fall outside city limits, which affects sales tax, utility provider, and who plows your road. If that matters for a purchase, check the address against the city limits map, not just the zip.
