ZIP 54140

What ZIP 54140 actually tells you, and what it doesn't

The 54140 ZIP Code Tabulation Area has a population of 8,371 and a median household income of $67,911. Against the other tabulation areas in this dataset, it places as follows.

A home at the median costs roughly 2.7 years of median household income, a little below the midpoint of the 29,491 tabulation areas reporting both. Buying is within reach of a typical local income here in a way it is not across most of the country.

At the median, rent consumes roughly 17% 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.

Half the residents are under 36.7, young enough to place 54140 in the youngest quarter of the 32,853 areas reporting an age. Campuses, barracks, and dense rental districts dominate this end of the range, and where that is the cause the income and poverty figures describe students rather than settled households.

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