Not every home with a King of Prussia mailing address is the same. ZIP code 19406 spans several municipalities, including Upper Merion Township, Bridgeport Borough, and West Norriton Township, and those boundaries decide which school district serves your address and how much you pay in property taxes. For buyers looking at 340 Anderson Rd, the short version is that this home sits in Upper Merion Township and feeds the Upper Merion Area School District, but many 19406 addresses do not, so the street address, not the ZIP, is what matters.
Does Every 19406 Address Feed the Same Schools?
No. Most of 19406 falls in Upper Merion Township and Bridgeport Borough, which are served by the Upper Merion Area School District along with West Conshohocken Borough, per the district's community pages. But the West Norriton Township portion of 19406 is served by the Norristown Area School District. That means two homes a few streets apart can feed entirely different school systems, which is why buyers should confirm the assignment for the exact address rather than assuming the ZIP code decides it. Upper Merion's community page lays out which municipalities the district serves.
Which Municipalities Make Up 19406?
According to zipdatamaps' breakdown of ZIP 19406, the code covers Upper Merion Township, where the King of Prussia community sits, Bridgeport Borough, West Norriton Township, and smaller portions in Swedeland, Tredyffrin Township, and Hidden Valley. Each municipality sets its own property tax millage, so the municipal portion of your tax bill varies by address even when the county and school portions are the same.
How Do Property Taxes Work in 19406?
Pennsylvania property taxes are three separate levies: Montgomery County, the municipality, and the school district. For 2026, Montgomery County's millage table lists the county rate at 5.462 mills. A home in Upper Merion Township adds the township's 5.619 mills and the Upper Merion Area School District's 25.03 mills, for a combined 36.601 mills on the county's official table. Your bill is calculated from the assessed value, not the market value: assessed value divided by 1,000, multiplied by each millage rate. The county and township bill is typically mailed around March 1, with a 2% discount if paid by April 30, and the school district tax is due July 1, per the Upper Merion tax collector's due-date schedule. Upper Merion Township also does not levy an earned income tax, unlike many neighboring municipalities, a quiet advantage for households with two incomes.
What Does This Mean for 340 Anderson Rd?
340 Anderson Rd is in Upper Merion Township, so it is served by the Upper Merion Area School District and the township's 2026 millage rates above. The home is zoned for Candlebrook Elementary, Upper Merion Area Middle School, and Upper Merion Area High School; elementary boundaries can shift, so verify the assignment for a specific address with the district's boundary tool. The property also carries no HOA fees or restrictions, which keeps the carrying costs of this 2019 custom build more predictable than many newer communities.
How Can Buyers Verify Their Address?
Three quick checks before you make an offer. First, confirm the school district and building assignment for the exact address with the Upper Merion Area School District's boundary tool, or with the relevant district if the address falls outside Upper Merion. Second, look up the current millage rates on Montgomery County's county and municipality millage page. Third, ask the listing agent which municipality and tax collector serve the property. A ZIP code is a mailing convenience, not a boundary; the street address is what determines schools and taxes.
