ZIP 54846

What ZIP 54846 actually tells you, and what it doesn't

The 54846 ZIP Code Tabulation Area has a population of 645 and a median household income of $67,656. 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 2.0 years of a median household's gross income, which puts 54846 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 14% of median household income at the median rent, in the lowest quarter of the 25,890 areas reporting both.

The median age of 44.6 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.
