How we count. ZIP codes here are the Census Bureau’s ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs), the areas it draws to match USPS ZIP codes; ZIPs with no area of their own (PO boxes, single buildings) aren’t included. A ZIP can cross county lines: “Land in the county” is the exact share of its land inside, from the Census relationship files. “Residents in the county” is the whole ZIP for those entirely inside; for shared ones it’s an estimate, spreading the people of each census tract over the land it shares with the ZIP. Population: ACS 2020–2024. Methodology.
