High income on only 3 ZIPs: the county page and the ZIP page nearly describe the same place. Prefer the ZIP detail for ACS household fields; keep this page for the FIPS join to county-level rents and crime tables.
Population sits in the five-to-twenty-five thousand band with few ZIPs - still ZIP-first for household fields, but the county seat ZIP (usually the densest row) is worth a second glance before the FIPS overlays.
