List of highest-income ZIP Code Tabulation Areas in the United States

Last updated

The following is a list of the highest-income ZCTAs in the United States. ZCTAs or ZIP Code Tabulation Areas are the census equivalent of ZIP codes used for statistical purposes. The reason why regular ZIP codes are not used is because they are defined by routes rather than geographic boundaries. Thus, they have the tendency to overlap and otherwise create difficulties. ZIP Code Tabulations are not exact; they are only near approximations. [1]

Delaware and Montana are no longer on the list. The most populous zip code was 10023 located in New York City with a population of 71,164.
