ZIP code 06058

ZIP 06058 is a small town in Litchfield County, Connecticut, with 1,819 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #235 of 288 ranked by population — larger than 18% of them. The median age here is 47.2 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 06058 earn a median of $85,859 a year, 9.3% above the national figure of $78,538. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 11.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 06058 is valued at $379,900, 25.2% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,207 a month, 14.2% below the national figure, or roughly $14,484 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.9% 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 4.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 75.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.

ZIP 06058 is tabulated inside Litchfield County, Connecticut, one of 40 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 288 across Connecticut. 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 06058 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 06058 reports a median household income of $85,859, 17% below the $103,843 county median, and 19% below the $105,813 typical CT ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $379,900, close to the county figure and 9% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,207 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Connecticut charges 6.35% statewide, and no local sales tax is layered on top, so the state rate is the full amount collected in 06058.

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 06058 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.
