Murray School District
Utah · runs kindergarten through grade 12
NCES ID 4900600 · murrayschools.org · (801) 264-7400
There is no ZIP Code area where Murray is the only school district serving the homes. It holds a real share in 3 of them and shares every one, with 3 different districts in total. A lookup that returns a single district name for any of those ZIP Codes is guessing which side of a line an address falls on.
It never has a ZIP Code to itself
At 1,667 homes to the square mile this is city territory, and district lines in a city follow streets. Murray covers 10 square miles in all — small enough that a single ZIP Code area can hold most of it, and several ZIP Codes can cut across it.

What one name misses in the areas it leads
Murray is the largest district in 1 ZIP Code area, and that area is not wholly its own. Answer with its name alone and the answer misses 5,849 of the 17,380 homes that area holds. That count is computed here from census blocks; the lookups that answer this question with a single name never print it.
Murray holds 11,531 of the 17,380 homes in ZIP Code 84107 · Murray, Utah, so its name is right for most of the area and wrong for the rest: 5,835 homes with Granite and 14 homes in a district too small to name here.
Murray reaches into ZIP Code 84123 · Taylorsville, Utah with 4,572 of its 15,395 homes; 3 districts there hold a real share of it, and Granite leads them. The familiar answer for that area is one of the others, and it is wrong for those 4,572 homes.
Murray is not the name anyone would give for ZIP Code 84121 · Brighton, Utah — Canyons leads it — and Murray holds 228 homes there all the same. Answer that area with one name and that is what it is wrong about.
Who takes the other homes in its ZIP Codes
Murray runs kindergarten through grade 12 itself, so an address it holds sees no change of authority between grade school and high school. The districts listed below are the ones that take the other homes in the ZIP Code areas it shares — Granite, Canyons and Jordan. They are neighbors on the same postal ground, not the next stop for its own students.
- Granite School District32,696 homes in 4 shared ZIP Code areas
- Canyons School District28,383 homes in 2 shared ZIP Code areas
- Jordan School District192 homes in 1 shared ZIP Code area
Who it shares ZIP Codes with

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.
Where this district sits
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 3 of the 5 ZIP Code areas Murray 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.
