ZIP Code 93535 · Lancaster, California
Los Angeles County · 24,198 counted · 4 districts
Each percentage here is a share of the 24,198 homes counted in ZIP Code 93535, 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 93535, Lancaster, California are not the districts named for high school, and the set changes in both directions: 1 district arrives for high school that no elementary answer names, and 3 run the early grades and stop. 4 districts hold the 24,198 homes counted here between them, and Antelope Valley Union Joint High is the largest by homes. Districts holding under half a percent of the homes named at their own level are listed separately below and are not counted in that number. The area sits in Los Angeles County, California.
Three districts share the early grades
3 districts hold a measurable share of ZIP Code 93535 at this level. Lancaster Elementary is the largest with 13,956 homes; the smallest of them holds 1,985 homes. Lancaster Elementary, Eastside Union Elementary and Wilsona Elementary are named here for grade school and not for high school.
Every track below is 35 cells long and stands for all 24,198 homes counted in ZIP Code 93535, so one cell is 691 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.

The set of names changes in both directions
Antelope Valley Union Joint High is named for high school here and for no elementary grades, and Lancaster Elementary, Eastside Union Elementary and Wilsona Elementary 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 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: one district covers every home counted in 93535, and even then the street is what enrolls a child, because magnet, charter and choice programs ignore the boundary entirely.
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.
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.
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.
