ZIP 10707 vs ZIP 10709

This side-by-side compares ZIP 10707 (Tuckahoe, NY) and ZIP 10709 (Eastchester, NY) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 10707 has a population of 10,097 at 3,003 people per square mile, while ZIP 10709 has 9,292 at 2,633 per square mile. That difference in population size and density alone reshapes how every other metric should be interpreted — a higher-income ZIP with 1,200 residents behaves very differently from one with 45,000.

On income and education, ZIP 10707 reports a median household income of $130,957 against $170,417 in ZIP 10709, with per-capita income of $72,296 vs $82,027. The share of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher is 62.6% in 10707 and 65.9% in 10709. Poverty rate reads 4.3% vs 4.4%, and unemployment 3.1% vs 3.6% — these four fields alone drive most of the difference in the scorecard grades you will see for each ZIP.

Housing separates these two ZIPs further: median home value sits at $773,200 in 10707 versus $847,900 in 10709, with median rent of $2,161 and $2,093 per month respectively. Homeownership rate is 55.7% vs 80.1%. When reading the comparison table below, focus on paired metrics rather than single winners — a ZIP with lower home values and lower income is not strictly "worse" if rent-to-income ratios and commute times land in the same zone. Every value is pulled from the exact same ACS table so the two columns are genuinely comparable.
