ZIP 36013 vs ZIP 36064

This side-by-side compares ZIP 36013 (Cecil, AL) and ZIP 36064 (Pike Road, AL) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 36013 has a population of 562 at 13 people per square mile, while ZIP 36064 has 6,753 at 32 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 36013 reports a median household income of $174,659 against $119,853 in ZIP 36064, with per-capita income of $52,041 vs $51,791.

Poverty rate reads 0.0% vs 5.4%, and unemployment 0.0% vs 0.6% — these four fields alone drive most of the difference in the scorecard grades you will see for each ZIP.

Homeownership rate is 100.0% vs 86.8%. 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.
