The area's median income ($91,527 in 2022) is significantly higher than the national median household income, which was around $70,784 in 2021. The slow increase in diversity is consistent with broader national trends of increasing diversity in suburban areas, although this zip code is changing at a slower rate than many other suburbs across the country. The steady population growth suggests that this area is economically vibrant and attractive to new residents, which is not universal across all suburban areas in the United States.
In conclusion, zip code 30677 remains a "Low Diversity" area with a strong "White Majority", but shows early signs of transitioning towards greater diversity.
