ZIP 62320 vs ZIP 62325

This side-by-side compares ZIP 62320 (Camp Point, IL) and ZIP 62325 (Coatsburg, IL) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 62320 has a population of 2,185 at 10 people per square mile, while ZIP 62325 has 403 at 10 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 62320 reports a median household income of $77,143 against $75,469 in ZIP 62325, with per-capita income of $31,212 vs $29,455. The share of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher is 24.3% in 62320 and 20.4% in 62325. Poverty rate reads 7.4% vs 5.6%, and unemployment 1.5% vs 0.0% — 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 $167,400 in 62320 versus $154,900 in 62325, with median rent of $691 and $1,156 per month respectively. Homeownership rate is 78.5% vs 75.4%. 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.
