Hmmm... Did you copy it line for line? What version of SQL are you running?
Try this:

SELECT City, ZipCode=LEFT(Zip,5), MBRs=COUNT(Zip)
FROM MasterAccounts
WHERE Active = 1 /* Display only "active" people) */
GROUP BY LEFT(Zip,5), City
ORDER BY LEFT(Zip,5), City

Didn't work.

Get this error:

Msg 156, Level 15, State 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'LEFT'.
