What is and is not ranked
OpenZIP ranks only measures of income, housing, commuting, age and size. It does not rank ZIP codes by race or ethnicity, poverty or unemployment, and it does not rate neighborhoods. A high or low value is a statistic about residents as a group, not a judgment about a place.

ACS estimates come from a sample, so ZIP codes near each other in a list are often not statistically different. Each ZIP page shows the margin of error.
