Zip code 34604 in Spring Hill, Florida, is classified as a "Low Diversity" community with a "White Majority" as of 2022. The area has a population of 14,498 and a median income of $69,428. This analysis examines the demographic and economic changes in this community over the past decade.
From 2013 to 2022, Spring Hill has maintained its status as a "Low Diversity" area with a strong "White Majority." The white population has remained above 75% throughout this period, decreasing slightly from 78% in 2013 to 76% in 2022. This minor shift suggests the potential beginnings of a "Transitional Community," albeit at a slow pace.
The Hispanic population has increased slightly from 13% in 2013 to 14% in 2022, while the Black population has remained relatively stable at around 4-6%. The "Two or More Races" category has shown the most notable change, increasing from 1% in 2013 to 4% in 2022, indicating a growing multiracial presence in the community.
The median income in Spring Hill has grown significantly over the decade, rising from $52,470 in 2013 to $69,428 in 2022, an increase of about 32%. This economic improvement correlates with the slight increase in diversity, suggesting that the area may be attracting a more diverse population as economic opportunities improve.
The population has also grown substantially, from 10,959 in 2013 to 14,498 in 2022, an increase of about 32%. This population growth aligns closely with the income growth, indicating a period of economic expansion and increased attractiveness of the area to new residents.
Spring Hill's slight increases in Hispanic and multiracial populations align with broader national trends of increasing diversity in suburban areas. However, the pace of diversification in this zip code appears to be slower than national averages.
The significant income growth in Spring Hill outpaces the national average for the same period, suggesting that this area has experienced stronger economic growth than many other parts of the country. This could be attributed to Florida's overall economic performance and the attraction of new residents to the state.
The population growth rate of 32% over a decade is notably higher than the national average, which typically hovers around 7-8% per decade. This rapid growth could be indicative of Spring Hill's increasing attractiveness as a residential area, possibly due to its improving economic conditions and Florida's overall appeal to migrants from other states.
Spring Hill remains a predominantly white, low-diversity area, but there are early signs of a gradual shift towards greater diversity. This shift is occurring alongside significant economic and population growth, suggesting that the area is in the early stages of a demographic transition that could accelerate in the coming years if current trends continue.
