Zip code 50657 in Morrison, Iowa, presents a demographic case study with a population of 2 people from 2010 to 2022. The zip code is categorized as "Low Diversity" with a consistent 100% white racial composition from 2013 to 2022.
There have been no demographic shifts in this zip code over the past decade. The population remained at 2 individuals, and the racial composition stayed 100% white. This stability places the community in the "Low Diversity" category throughout the entire period.
Despite the lack of demographic changes, there were fluctuations in the median income. From 2013 to 2015, median income declined from $58,131 to $52,199. From 2015 to 2022, there was a generally upward trend, with median income rising from $52,199 to $71,130. This overall increase suggests an improving economic situation for the two residents.
The situation in this zip code is unusual and not representative of broader demographic trends. The extremely small population of 2 people makes it an outlier compared to most communities. The complete lack of racial diversity and demographic change over a decade is atypical for most areas in the United States. The steady increase in median income since 2015 aligns with broader national trends of economic recovery and growth following the 2008 financial crisis, although the specific numbers may not be statistically significant due to the small sample size.
In conclusion, this zip code shows economic trends but its small and unchanging population makes it challenging to draw meaningful conclusions about demographic evolution or to relate it to broader socio-economic trends. The data serves as a case study of a micro-community rather than a reflection of typical demographic patterns in the United States.
