Zip code 65075 in St. Elizabeth, Missouri, is classified as a "Low Diversity" community as of 2022. The population is 97% white, with a median income of $69,974, slightly above the 2021 national median household income of $70,784.
This zip code has maintained its "Low Diversity" status over the past decade. The white population has consistently remained above 95% throughout the recorded period. Other racial categories have seen minimal increases, but these remain statistically insignificant at under 2% each.
Despite subtle signs of gradual diversification, with the white population decreasing from 99% in 2014 to 97% in 2022, these changes are insufficient to reclassify the area as a "Transitional Community" based on defined terms.
The median income in this zip code has fluctuated significantly over the past decade. From 2013 to 2022, there was an overall increase from $48,569 to $69,974, representing a growth of about 44%. The community experienced a peak in median income in 2017 at $73,375, followed by some decline and then stabilization.
Economic changes do not appear to correlate strongly with the minimal demographic shifts observed. The community has maintained its low diversity status regardless of income fluctuations, suggesting that economic factors have not significantly influenced the racial composition of the area.
Population figures have fluctuated, peaking at 1,012 in 2015 and currently standing at 970 in 2022. These changes have not dramatically altered the racial makeup of the community.
The demographic makeup of this zip code contrasts with national trends towards increasing diversity. While the U.S. as a whole has become more racially diverse, with the white population dropping below 60% in the 2020 census, this community has maintained its overwhelmingly white demographic.
Economically, the area's median income growth broadly aligns with national trends of increasing household incomes over the past decade. However, the community's income levels have shown more volatility than national averages, which have generally seen steadier growth.
Zip code 65075 represents a stable, low-diversity community that has experienced significant economic fluctuations but minimal demographic changes over the past decade. While subtle signs of increasing diversity are present, they are not substantial enough to indicate a significant shift in the community's racial composition. The area's resistance to diversification, despite economic changes, suggests deeply rooted demographic patterns that may be influenced by factors such as geographic isolation, local culture, or limited migration patterns.
