I ran across some interesting statistics about my zip code area the other day. I don't know why this fascinates me since my brain in generally accepted as being a-numeric. But somehow these numbers are interesting to me...
There are 53,830 households in 4.2 sq miles, giving it a population density of 12,805 people per square mile, which rates as "very high". For comparison, this ranks slightly higher than the city of Chicago.
51.4% of the population is foreign born and 29% of the residents speak English at home.
The 2008 estimated median household income is $46,423.
In 2008, the median price asked for vacant for-sale homes and condos was $739,000.
The estimated median house value in this zip code was $526,000, while in 2000 it was $205,000.
65% of the residents are renters.
The 2009 cost of living index was 165.4 (compared to a national average of 100).
