ZIP 33025 vs ZIP 33055

This side-by-side compares ZIP 33025 (Hollywood, FL) and ZIP 33055 (Opa Locka, FL) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 33025 has a population of 59,039 at 2,149 people per square mile, while ZIP 33055 has 43,194 at 2,777 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 33025 reports a median household income of $68,743 against $62,286 in ZIP 33055, with per-capita income of $33,752 vs $26,973. The share of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher is 34.4% in 33025 and 18.0% in 33055. Poverty rate reads 11.3% vs 14.1%, and unemployment 4.2% vs 4.8% — 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 $364,800 in 33025 versus $369,600 in 33055, with median rent of $2,109 and $1,793 per month respectively. Homeownership rate is 43.7% vs 76.2%. 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.
