Where Household Incomes Rose Most

Source: U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 5-year estimates (B19013); BLS CPI-U (each ZIP code's table at data.census.gov). Method: Residential ZIP codes (Census 2020 ZCTAs) with 1,000 or more people living in households (200 or more households, at most 5 people a household, so campuses, bases and prisons are left out) that have their own page; for income and home value, a figure whose 90% margin is at most 25% of it (a value at a Census cap counts); ties share a rank; the 50 states, D.C. and Puerto Rico. ZIP codes where most residents are students are labeled. Only ZIP codes whose boundary stayed at least 90% the same and whose change is larger than the combined margin of the two estimates (1.645 standard errors of the difference, 90% confidence); 2015-2019 dollars converted with the CPI-U annual averages.
