High income on only 1 ZIP: 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.

Within Virginia, Arlington is the closest lower-income county and Loudoun the closest higher-income county by average ZIP household income. Their 10 and 16 ZIP footprints are the immediate statewide comparison set for Falls Church. Use those locations as statewide context before treating the county average as a local-market answer.
