High schoolGlenbard Township High School District 8760%9,512 of 15,904 homes

Each percentage here is a share of the 15,904 homes counted in ZIP Code 60188, not the chance that any one address is in that district. Enrollment follows the street: two houses on opposite sides of the same road can be in different districts, and only the district office can say which.

The districts named for the early grades in ZIP Code 60188, Carol Stream, Illinois are not the districts named for high school, and the set changes in both directions: one district arrives for high school that no elementary answer names, and another runs the early grades and stops. 7 districts hold the 15,904 homes counted here between them, and Community Consolidated School District 93 is the largest by homes. The largest share leaves 6,392 homes elsewhere: 7,007 homes with Community Unit School District 200, School District U-46, Benjamin School District 25 and 1 more district and 79 homes in a district too small to name here.

The early grades are divided many ways

5 districts hold a measurable share of ZIP Code 60188 at this level. Community Consolidated School District 93 is the largest with 8,818 homes; the smallest of them holds 615 homes. Community Consolidated School District 93, Benjamin School District 25 and Glen Ellyn School District 41 are named here for grade school and not for high school.

Every track below is 35 cells long and stands for all 15,904 homes counted in ZIP Code 60188, so one cell is 454 homes, rounded to the nearest whole cell. Cells lit solid are the homes one district holds, and the unlit cells are the homes held by the other districts in the same list.

Below half a percent at the grade school level: Queen Bee School District 16 holds 79 homes, which is why it is counted under the list rather than inside it. A lookup that named it alongside the districts above would be listing a boundary crossing rather than an answer.

High school is divided four ways

4 districts hold a measurable share of ZIP Code 60188 at this level. Glenbard Township High School District 87 is the largest with 9,512 homes; the smallest of them holds 1,246 homes. Glenbard Township High School District 87 and Community High School District 94 are named here for high school and not for the early grades.

  • Glenbard Township High School District 879,512 of 15,904 homes60%
  • Community Unit School District 2003,553 of 15,904 homes22%
  • School District U-461,593 of 15,904 homes10%
  • Community High School District 941,246 of 15,904 homes7.8%

The set of names changes in both directions

Glenbard Township High School District 87 and Community High School District 94 are named for high school here and for no elementary grades, and Benjamin School District 25, Community Consolidated School District 93 and Glen Ellyn School District 41 run the early grades and no more. An address on the wrong street can therefore change district at the change of grade and land in a district that was never part of its elementary answer, while a neighbor two blocks away keeps one name the whole way through.

What one district name costs in 60188

A lookup that answers ZIP Code 60188 with one district name has to pick one of the names below and drop the rest. Measured against the 15,904 homes counted here, for the early grades it is wrong for 7,086 homes and for high school it is wrong for 6,392 homes. That is the whole difference between this page and a one-line answer: the same federal file, read to the end instead of to the first row.

The districts that reach into 60188

The districts named above are not alike in size or in reach. School District U-46 touches 15 ZIP Code areas in all and holds 1,593 homes inside this one; Benjamin School District 25 touches 3 areas. School District U-46 is the only district in at least one ZIP Code area somewhere in the country, while Glenbard Township High School District 87 is never the only one anywhere: every postal area it touches, it shares. 2 of them have a page here listing every ZIP Code area it reaches.

Where Community Consolidated School District 93 goes from here

Community Consolidated School District 93 runs pre-K through grade 8, and it is the only school district serving 0 of the 5 ZIP Code areas it touches, shares 3 more with neighbors, and holds under half a percent of the homes in the remaining 2.

Look up 60188 again, or look up another ZIP Code

The lookup holds every ZIP Code area in the country with homes in it, including the ones with no page of their own. Opening it at 60188 recomputes the same 15,904 homes from the same snapshot, and typing five other digits answers for somewhere else. Nothing here is fetched from anywhere while you read: the whole index travels with the lookup page itself.

What to do next

Ask the district office to confirm your street address. A district settles that question on its own site: look for a school locator, a find my school tool, or an attendance zone map. Where there is none, ask the office itself.

A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not a boundary: 6,392 of the 15,904 homes counted in 60188 sit outside the district holding the most of them, and the line between the two runs along streets rather than around the postal area.

This site links to no district website. None of the federal files it is built from publishes one, and a guessed address is worse than none. It is the district office, not a search engine, that settles an address.

What this site can hand you instead:

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.

What this cannot tell you

The homes were counted in the 2020 Census and the district lines are the 2026 boundary file. Nothing on this page adjusts one to the other. Where houses have been built or cleared since the count, a share here describes the place as it was counted rather than as it stands today, and in the fastest-growing ZIP Code areas that gap is the largest single source of error on this site.

A share on this page is a share of the homes in the ZIP Code area, not a probability for any particular address. Enrollment is decided by street address, and a district may run magnet, charter or choice programs that ignore the boundary entirely. If a decision depends on the answer, the district office is the only authority; this page shows what the federal boundary files say and when they were published.

A district boundary is not a school attendance zone. This site never says which school an address is assigned to: no current national dataset of attendance zones exists, and the district draws them itself. Nor is anything here endorsed or certified by the Census Bureau; we use their published files, and that is the whole of the relationship.

A ZIP Code is a set of mail delivery routes, not an area. What is mapped here is the Census Bureau's ZIP Code Tabulation Area, the closest published approximation to it. The two are not identical, and a handful of ZIP Codes used only for post office boxes or single buildings have no tabulation area at all.

Where these numbers come from

School district boundaries come from the Census Bureau's Census Geographic Relationship File, current 2026 vintage, which assigns every census block to a unified district or to an elementary and a secondary district. Homes and residents in each block come from the 2020 Census Redistricting Data (PL 94-171), H1_001 and P1_001. The ZIP Code areas come from the same Geographic Relationship File, block to ZIP Code Tabulation Area. District names and grade ranges come from the Census Gazetteer 2025, with 2020 for districts no longer listed.

The place name printed beside a ZIP Code comes from the Census 2020 ZIP Code Tabulation Area relationship files: place, county subdivision and county, taken 2026-09-06. It is a label rather than a measurement: the Census Bureau does not publish which post office a ZIP Code belongs to, so the place named is the one covering the most land inside the area, not the city the Postal Service prints on an envelope.

Everything else on this page — the shares, the counts of districts per ZIP, the comparison between the two grade bands, the rankings — is computed here from those files. The source publishes none of it. Snapshot taken 2026-09-03.
