The population density has remained relatively low only reaching 94 point 04 people per square mile in 2022.

This low housing unit density further supports the rural nature of the area with households likely occupying larger plots of land.
The gradual population increase over the past decade indicates a slow but consistent urban development activity in the ZIP code. However the population density has not crossed the threshold that would typically characterize a shift towards suburban or urban lifestyles. The area likely maintains its rural character with residents enjoying a quieter more nature oriented way of life while still having access to essential amenities and services.
As the population continues to grow it is possible that the area may experience a gradual transition towards a more suburban rural lifestyle with slightly more clustered housing developments and improved access to community centers and parks. However based on the current population density and growth trends this transition is likely to be slow and measured allowing the ZIP code to maintain its predominantly rural character in the near future.
