The zip code 83615 in Donnelly, Idaho, is classified as a "Low Diversity" community with a "White Majority" as of 2022. Data indicates that 98% of the population identifies as white, with minimal representation from other racial groups. The median income for 2022 was $68,558, and the population was 1,266, suggesting a small but economically stable community.
Donnelly has maintained its status as a "Low Diversity" area with a "White Majority" over the past decade. There have been minor fluctuations in racial composition. From 2013 to 2019, there was a slight increase in diversity, with the Hispanic population reaching 11% in 2019. This briefly moved the community towards a "Moderate Diversity" classification, although it did not reach that threshold. By 2022, the community returned to a stronger "White Majority" status, with 98% of the population identifying as white, reinforcing its "Low Diversity" categorization.
The community showed potential signs of being a "Transitional Community" between 2017 and 2020, with the Hispanic population increasing from 1% to 10%. However, this trend reversed in subsequent years. The median income has fluctuated considerably over the years, ranging from $59,667 in 2015 to $77,983 in 2019. The period of slightly increased diversity (2017-2020) coincided with a general upward trend in median income, peaking in 2019.
The population has grown steadily from 970 in 2013 to 1,266 in 2022, indicating a gradual influx of new residents. The most recent data shows a slight decrease in median income from $75,770 in 2021 to $68,558 in 2022, coinciding with the community reverting to its lowest diversity level in the decade.
Donnelly's demographic composition is less diverse than many urban areas in the United States, which have been trending towards increased diversity over the past decade. The median income, while fluctuating, has remained relatively high compared to the national median income (which was around $70,784 in 2021), suggesting a relatively affluent community. The brief period of increased Hispanic population (2017-2020) aligns with broader national trends of growing Hispanic communities in various parts of the country, although this trend has reversed in Donnelly.
In conclusion, while Donnelly showed brief signs of increasing diversity and potentially transitioning to a more mixed community between 2017 and 2020, it has ultimately maintained and reinforced its status as a predominantly white, low-diversity area. The economic indicators suggest a relatively prosperous community, with income levels generally above national averages despite recent fluctuations. The relationship between diversity and economic prosperity in this specific context is not straightforward, as periods of slightly increased diversity coincided with both increases and decreases in median income.
