Children and working-age adults under 45 likely make up the bulk of the population.

This near-parity reflects a typical residential community without significant gender skew from institutions, industries, or other structural factors.

Economic Metrics
At 81,808 dollars per year, the median household income in this ZIP code is above the national average and competitive within Utah. This suggests a community with reasonably strong economic footing, where households have access to stable employment, home equity, and some financial cushion. Residents are likely homeowners with middle-to-upper-middle class incomes, though fixed-income seniors may still face meaningful constraints when managing healthcare costs. Looking at the income distribution more broadly, about 186 households fall below $10,000 in annual income, representing the most financially vulnerable residents in this community. In the upper-middle range, the $100,000 to $125,000 bracket contains a large 2,421 households, confirming a strong middle-to-upper-middle class base. At the top of the scale, only 404 households report income above $200,000, meaning top earners represent a small but present segment. The income levels here reflect a community where employment spans a broad range of sectors, including professional services, education, healthcare, and skilled trades. Utah's low unemployment rate has generally supported household income stability across this range of communities.
