Scarsdale's zip code of 10583 is infamous for spilling over into nearly every other city, town, or village on its borders. Though this is intended to drive up real estate values in less prestigious locales (allowing people who technically live just outside Scarsdale to still claim Scarsdale residence), it also causes resentment among many in these towns who do not wish to be associated with the perceived snobbery of Scarsdale.
