The areas it leads without holding most of the homes

Deptford Township is the largest district in 3 ZIP Code areas, and not one of them is wholly its own. Answer with its name alone and the answer misses 10,835 of the 22,944 homes those areas hold. That count is computed here from census blocks; the lookups that answer this question with a single name never print it.

Deptford Township holds 7,744 of the 15,269 homes in ZIP Code 08096 · Woodbury, New Jersey, so its name is right for most of the area and wrong for the rest: 7,508 homes with Woodbury City and West Deptford Township; 17 homes in a district too small to name here.

Deptford Township is the largest name in ZIP Code 08093 · Westville, New Jersey and still holds a minority of it: 1,987 of 4,415 homes. The other 2,428 homes are with Westville Borough and West Deptford Township. This is the shape that makes a one-name answer worst — the name is right for fewer homes than it is wrong for.

ZIP Code 08090 · Wenonah, New Jersey is a two-district area: 2,378 of its 3,260 homes are inside Deptford Township, and the other 882 homes are with Wenonah Borough. Which one an address belongs to is settled by the street, not by the five digits.

Deptford Township is not the name anyone would give for ZIP Code 08080 · Sewell, New Jersey — Washington Township leads it — and Deptford Township holds 851 homes there all the same. Answer that area with one name and that is what it is wrong about.

ZIP Code 08051 · Mantua, New Jersey is another area where Deptford Township is present without being the answer: 75 of its 4,763 homes, behind Clearview Regional.

Have a street address?

A ZIP Code names every district that can serve the area; a street address settles which one serves a home. The Census Bureau geocoder takes an exact address and returns its school districts from the current boundary files, free and with no account.

What to do next

Ask the district office to confirm your street address: look on its site for a school locator, a find my school tool or an attendance zone map, or call the office.

A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not a boundary: in 6 of the 6 ZIP Code areas Deptford Township reaches, at least one other district holds a real share of the homes as well, and the line between them runs along streets. Only the district can say which side of that line an address is on.

District websites and phone numbers here come from the NCES Common Core of Data directory, 2024-25 school year, filed under the same district ID as the Census boundary files. Where it lists no usable website, none is printed rather than guessed.

If a house purchase depends on the answer, ask the district itself for written confirmation of that exact address. A listing is not a district record, and neither is this page.

Where these numbers come from

The homes were counted in the 2020 Census and the district lines are the 2026 boundary file, so a fast-growing area may have changed since; ZIP Codes here are the Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Areas; a share is a share of homes, not the chance that one address is in a district; and a district is not a school attendance zone. Every source, file and caveat is on the method page.
