The zip code 63941 in Fremont, Missouri, is classified as a "Low Diversity" community as of 2022. The population is 95% white, meeting the criteria for a dominant racial group with over 75% representation. The community has 477 residents and a median income of $71,144.
Fremont has maintained its "Low Diversity" status over the past decade. The white population has consistently remained above 90%. The percentage of residents identifying as two or more races increased from 2% in 2013 to 4% in 2022. The Hispanic population has remained stable at around 1% since 2016. The black population decreased from 2% in 2013-2014 to 0% in recent years.
The median income in Fremont has fluctuated significantly over the past decade. From 2013 to 2015, median income declined from $62,723 to $50,994, coinciding with a population decrease. From 2015 to 2021, median income increased substantially, reaching $78,605 in 2021, despite continued population decline. In 2022, median income slightly decreased to $71,144, still higher than a decade ago.
The period of increasing income (2015-2021) corresponds with a subtle increase in racial diversity, particularly in the two or more races category.
Fremont's persistent "Low Diversity" status contrasts with national trends towards increasing diversity. The significant population decline from 969 in 2010 to 477 in 2022 may reflect broader trends of rural depopulation. Despite population decline, the increase in median income over the past decade suggests improved economic conditions for remaining residents.
Fremont remains a predominantly white, low-diversity community. Subtle shifts in racial composition and significant changes in economic profile over the past decade indicate underlying dynamics that may continue to shape its demographic and economic future. The interplay between population decline, increasing median income, and slight increases in diversity presents a case study of change in a small, rural American community.
