Demographics by ZIP Code Database

Census Data By ZIP Code with an Easy Data Extractor

Our 2023 Demographics by ZIP Code database contains the very latest counts. As of 4/8/22, all estimates in our product are from the 2021 estimates, which factor in 2020 counts. These estimates are the most accurate data available. When a demographic has both an estimate and a 2010 count, we strongly recommend that you use the estimate.

Our goal for this Census Data by ZIP Code product is to make it easily accessible to the non-programmer and to save valuable hours for the programmer. Unique to GreatData is our Census Data Extractor which allows you to pick and choose only the Census Demographics needed and create your own custom file.

Also unique are our population projections for 5 and 10 years out by ZIP Code. See the ‘Database Specs & Features’ section (right) for the ZIP Code Census Data included in this product and how it is categorized (population by ZIP Code data, age data, etc.) Mouse-over any category for more detail.

Please watch our Census Pro video which explains our product and demonstrates this powerful tool.

Our ZIP Code Census Demographics database product is tied to a ZCTA, which is an approximation of a ZIP Code, but usually not an exact match. Our Census by ZIP Code data has been created by parsing out data from multiple extracts of ZIP Code Census data and other sources. Some US Census data can be found on the Census Bureau's site, but we've found it difficult to get it the way most people want to format it, so we created this tool.

Important note: There are about 33,000 ZCTAs and over 41,000 ZIP Codes. The ‘extra’ ZIP Codes are mainly PO Boxes and business ZIP Codes where there are no residences. This product only contains ZCTAs. We have a Parent ZIP Code Product  which maps PO Boxes and other ZIPs which don't have a ZCTA (they are called 'Point ZIPs') to the 'parent' ZIP Code (a nearby ZIP with Census demographics).

If your needs differ from our current offering, please contact us. We have more ZIP Code Demographics data internally that might suit your requirement.
