What ZIP 23879 actually tells you, and what it doesn't
The 23879 ZIP Code Tabulation Area has a population of 580 and a median household income of $56,667. Against the other tabulation areas in this dataset, it places as follows.
Rent absorbs roughly 23% of median household income, among the highest quarter of reporting areas. Because renter households usually earn below the area-wide median, the burden on actual renters runs higher than this ratio shows.
At a median age of 55.1, 23879 falls in the oldest quarter of reporting areas. Retirement destinations and long-settled rural areas cluster here, and in both the labour-force measures below cover a smaller share of residents than they would in a younger area.
The ACS publishes no median home value for 23879. Those rows read "Not reported" below rather than zero; a suppressed estimate is not a measurement of nothing. Small resident counts are the usual reason the Bureau withholds one.
ZCTAs approximate USPS ZIP codes rather than matching them, and these are 5-year ACS estimates, so they trail current conditions.
