What ZIP 04042 actually tells you, and what it doesn't
The 04042 ZIP Code Tabulation Area has a population of 4,766 and a median household income of $84,219. Against the other tabulation areas in this dataset, it places as follows.
The median home is priced at about 3.2 times median household income, above the midpoint for reporting areas. A gap of this size usually means demand is being set by buyers whose income is not counted in this ZCTA -- commuters, second-home buyers, or investors.
At the median, rent consumes roughly 15% of a median household's income -- below the midpoint for reporting areas, and well under the 30% line commonly used to define a cost burden.
The median age of 46.8 sits above the midpoint of reporting areas, the pattern of a settled population where more residents are past child-rearing than entering it.
ZCTAs approximate USPS ZIP codes rather than matching them, and these are 5-year ACS estimates, so they trail current conditions.
