Demographic Data
ZIP code 84602 encompasses a small, close-knit community in Provo, Utah, with a total recorded population of 1,606 residents. The median age of 19.4 is strikingly low, making this one of the youngest ZIP codes in the state. This typically reflects a substantial student population, young families, or both, and points to a community still in the early stages of household formation. Young professionals and college students likely define much of the neighborhood's rhythm and character. Seniors aged 65 and older make up only about 0.0% of residents, a relatively small share that aligns with the area's overall youthfulness. The current senior population is limited, though it will grow as the large younger cohort ages in place. Females account for 63.9% of residents compared to 36.1% male, a slight female majority consistent with national demographic patterns, where women tend to outlive men and make up a larger share of older cohorts. White non-Hispanic residents form the largest share of the population at 85.1%. Hispanic or Latino residents make up 4.9% of the population. Asian residents comprise 3.2%. Black or African American residents account for 0.2%. Minority populations are present but not dominant, giving the community a largely homogeneous demographic profile with modest diversity.
