Union lands in the national county income distribution as upper-quartile household income on sparsely populated county footing (FIPS 46127, 4 ZIPs, combined population 11,923). On this short ZIP list the county page is mainly the FIPS bridge - household ACS fields live on the primary ZIP.

High income on only 4 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.

Within South Dakota, Hamlin is the closest lower-income county and Lincoln the closest higher-income county by average ZIP household income. Their 6 and 7 ZIP footprints are the immediate statewide comparison set for Union. Use those locations as statewide context before treating the county average as a local-market answer.
