ZIP 22191 vs ZIP 22125

This side-by-side compares ZIP 22191 (Woodbridge, VA) and ZIP 22125 (Occoquan, VA) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 22191 has a population of 57,598 at 1,407 people per square mile, while ZIP 22125 has 711 at 1,954 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 22191 reports a median household income of $109,316 against $161,364 in ZIP 22125, with per-capita income of $46,464 vs $104,607. The share of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher is 37.7% in 22191 and 69.5% in 22125. Poverty rate reads 7.8% vs 1.8%, and unemployment 6.4% vs 2.7% — 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 $454,300 in 22191 versus $494,100 in 22125, with median rent of $2,125 and $2,008 per month respectively. Homeownership rate is 57.1% vs 74.0%. 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.
