Springfield, OR is covered by 2 USPS ZIP codes serving a combined population of 73,885 according to Census ACS 5-Year Estimates.

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 Springfield, the median household income averages $72,874 and per-capita income averages $34,976. Poverty rate runs at 13.6% and unemployment at 5.0%.
