ZIP code 20007

ZIP 20007 is a mid-size town in District of Columbia, District of Columbia, with 23,696 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #12 of 57 ranked by population — larger than 80% of them. The median age here is 38.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 ZIP 20007 earn a median of $142,783 a year, 81.8% 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 8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 20007 is valued at $1,202,900, 296.5% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $2,066 a month, 46.9% above the national figure, or roughly $24,792 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.4% 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 8.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is out of reach on local earnings alone and the ownership market leans on outside income, equity or dual high earners. 57.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Home values sit at 8.4× median household income, far past the 3.9× national mark, so ownership costs here are set by something other than local wages — second homes, retirees with equity, or commuters earning elsewhere.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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 20007 is tabulated inside District of Columbia, District of Columbia, one of 57 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 57 across District of Columbia. This is a mid-sized suburban ZIP inside a county that is split across many delivery areas. 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 20007 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 20007 reports a median household income of $142,783, 29% above the $111,110 county median, and 29% above the $111,110 typical DC ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $1,202,900, 66% above the county figure and 66% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $2,066 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

District of Columbia charges 6% statewide, and no local sales tax is layered on top, so the state rate is the full amount collected in 20007.

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 20007 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.
