ZIP 89031 vs ZIP 89032

This side-by-side compares ZIP 89031 (North Las Vegas, NV) and ZIP 89032 (North Las Vegas, NV) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 89031 has a population of 60,589 at 2,462 people per square mile, while ZIP 89032 has 40,297 at 1,514 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 89031 reports a median household income of $87,297 against $76,127 in ZIP 89032, with per-capita income of $33,223 vs $31,193. The share of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher is 19.4% in 89031 and 16.7% in 89032. Poverty rate reads 9.0% vs 11.0%, and unemployment 7.2% vs 11.4% — 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 $407,300 in 89031 versus $371,400 in 89032, with median rent of $1,950 and $1,746 per month respectively. Homeownership rate is 73.1% vs 62.2%. 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.
