ZIP code guides

Six ZIP codes account for nearly every address a buyer will consider in the greater Waxhaw corridor.

The confusion they cause is predictable. 28104 carries a Matthews mailing city but lies mostly in Union County and contains both Weddington and Marvin. 28173 stretches far beyond Waxhaw town limits into Mineral Springs and unincorporated county land. 28105 shares the Matthews name with 28104 but sits in Mecklenburg County under an entirely different school district.

Each guide below covers what the delivery area includes, median pricing, school assignment realities, commute distances, and the practical service differences — water, sewer, trash, taxes — that a ZIP code alone will never tell you.
