Rochester, MI is covered by 3 USPS ZIP codes serving a combined population of 97,195 according to Census ACS 5-Year Estimates. U.S. cities rarely map cleanly to a single ZIP — Rochester splits its residents across 3 delivery areas, each with its own demographic and housing profile. The table below lists every ZIP by population, so you can see which neighborhoods carry the weight of the city total and which are smaller pockets of the same municipal boundary.

Aggregated across every ZIP in Rochester, the median household income averages $130,422 and per-capita income averages $62,982. Poverty rate runs at 4.5% and unemployment at 3.9%. On housing, the average median home value is $442,100 with median rent of $1,652 per month, and 80.2% of occupied units are owner-occupied.
