ZIP code 94963

ZIP 94963 is a very small community in Marin County, California, with 562 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1518 of 1,803 ranked by population — larger than 15% of them. The median age here is 46.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in ZIP 94963 earn a median of $206,375 a year, 162.8% above 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 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 94963 is valued at $1,220,800, 302.4% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 88.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 562 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare ZIP 94963 against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for ZIP 94963 because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.

ZIP 94963 is tabulated inside Marin County, California, one of 29 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 1,803 across California. Fewer than 2,500 people are counted here, so the ZIP behaves like a village delivery route rather than a neighbourhood. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 94963 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 94963 reports a median household income of $206,375, 49% above the $138,379 county median, and 130% above the $89,916 typical CA ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $1,220,800, 17% below the county figure and 94% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at not published a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

California charges 7.25% statewide, and local governments overlapping 94963 may add county, city or special-district levies on top. We publish the state floor for this ZIP rather than guessing a combined figure, because ZIP boundaries and taxing-district boundaries were drawn for different purposes and do not line up.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 94963 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
