ZIP 47513

What ZIP 47513 actually tells you, and what it doesn't

The 47513 ZIP Code Tabulation Area has a population of 1,822 and a median household income of $61,985. Against the other tabulation areas in this dataset, it places as follows.

Housing is cheap here relative to local earnings. A home at the median costs about 1.6 years of a median household's gross income, which puts 47513 in the least expensive quarter of the 29,491 tabulation areas that report both figures. Areas in this range are usually either far from a major job centre or carrying housing stock that local wages have caught up with.

Renting takes an unusually small bite of local income -- about 12% of median household income at the median rent, in the lowest quarter of the 25,890 areas reporting both.

A median age of 39.6 is on the younger side of the reporting range -- the profile of an area still taking in households at the family-forming stage rather than one that has finished doing so.

ZCTAs approximate USPS ZIP codes rather than matching them, and these are 5-year ACS estimates, so they trail current conditions.
