Harrison ZIP codes — Harrison County, Missouri

Harrison County is a mid-size town in Missouri, with 8,198 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates. The median age here is 40.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Harrison County earn a median of $53,364 a year, 32.1% below the national figure of $78,538. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 16.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Harrison County is valued at $107,400, 64.6% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $666 a month, 52.6% below the national figure, or roughly $7,992 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 73.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
