The very small population and high percentage of white residents are characteristic of many rural areas in the United States, particularly in the South. The significant increase in median income over the decade outpaces national averages, potentially indicating local economic improvements or changes in the small number of households present. Unlike many areas in the U.S. that have seen increasing diversity over the past decade, this zip code has maintained its homogeneous racial composition, diverging from broader national trends towards increased diversity.

In conclusion, zip code 72061 in Guy, Arkansas, represents a small, stable community with low racial diversity and a predominant White majority. While the racial composition has remained largely unchanged, the area has experienced significant economic growth as evidenced by rising median incomes. This pattern of economic improvement without demographic shifts may reflect broader trends in rural, predominantly white communities in the region.
