ZIP 56226

What ZIP 56226 actually tells you, and what it doesn't

The 56226 ZIP Code Tabulation Area has a population of 195 and a median household income of $98,333. 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 1.9 years of a median household's gross income, which puts 56226 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.

The median age of 41.9 sits above the midpoint of reporting areas, the pattern of a settled population where more residents are past child-rearing than entering it.

The ACS publishes no median rent or unemployment rate for 56226. 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.
