Okeechobee lands in the national county income distribution as below-median household income on smaller county footing (FIPS 12093, 2 ZIPs, combined population 43,841). On this short ZIP list the county page is mainly the FIPS bridge - household ACS fields live on the primary ZIP.

Below-median income with few ZIPs: start cost-of-living reads on the primary code (34974), not the county mean. This page exists to join FIPS 12093 to HUD/FBI tables once the ZIP is chosen.

Population clears twenty-five thousand even with few ZIPs - density can still swing hard inside the short list. Compare the top two rows by population before treating FIPS 12093 averages as uniform.
