ZIP 54922

What ZIP 54922 actually tells you, and what it doesn't

The 54922 ZIP Code Tabulation Area has a population of 1,088 and a median household income of $70,625. Against the other tabulation areas in this dataset, it places as follows.

A home at the median costs roughly 2.4 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.

Median rent works out to about 18% of median household income, above the midpoint for reporting areas though still short of the 30% cost-burden line. Note that this compares two medians, not the same households: renters here typically earn less than the ZCTA-wide median, so their real share is higher.

At a median age of 50.1, 54922 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.

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