Zip code 65746 in Seymour, Missouri, is classified as a "Low Diversity" area with a "White Majority" as of 2022. The population is 91% white, with a median income of $53,322. This rural community has undergone minor demographic and economic changes over the past decade.
From 2013 to 2022, Seymour has maintained its "Low Diversity" status with a strong "White Majority." The white population decreased from 97% to 91%, while the Hispanic population increased from 1% to 4%. The "Two or More Races" category doubled from 1% to 2%. These changes suggest a slow transition towards increased diversity.
The median income increased from $43,564 in 2013 to $53,322 in 2022, representing a 22.4% growth. The most significant income growth occurred between 2019 and 2021, with a 24.8% increase. However, there was a slight decrease in median income from 2021 to 2022, dropping from $57,349 to $53,322.
The population fluctuated, growing from 9,000 in 2013 to 9,143 in 2022, with variations in between. The peak population of 9,566 was recorded in 2021.
The gradual increase in diversity aligns with broader national trends of increasing racial and ethnic diversity in many communities across the United States. The significant income growth between 2019 and 2021 may reflect broader economic trends related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The slight decrease in both population and median income from 2021 to 2022 could indicate post-pandemic economic adjustments or rural-to-urban migration patterns.
Seymour remains a predominantly white, low-diversity area, with subtle signs of demographic change and economic fluctuation. The community appears to be in the early stages of a transition towards greater diversity, coupled with overall economic growth over the past decade. These changes may have implications for local services, community dynamics, and future development plans in the area.
