Electroweak measurements place significant bounds on higher-dimensional versions of the standard model in which the gauge and Higgs fields have Kaluza-Klein excitations. These bounds may be altered quantitatively if chiral matter is also allowed to propagate in the higher-dimensional `bulk'. We determine the electroweak constraints on a number of models of this type, including scenarios in which only the leptons or only the first two generations of matter fields propagate in the bulk. We also consider the possibility that different factors of the electroweak gauge group may be distinguished by their bulk/three-brane assignment, and study a minimal extra-dimensional Z' model. We find typical bounds on the compactification scale between 1.5 and 4 TeV, and comment on models in which these bounds might be significantly relaxed.
