ZIP code 33128

ZIP 33128 is a mid-size town in Miami-Dade County, Florida, with 9,018 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #719 of 1,013 ranked by population — larger than 29% of them. The median age here is 44.1 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 ZIP 33128 earn a median of $36,308 a year, 53.8% 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 18.4% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 33128 is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $1,316 a month, 6.4% below the national figure, or roughly $15,792 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 43.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is severely stretched — a median-income renter clears the cost-burden line by a wide margin before utilities beyond the gross-rent definition. 2.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

The Census withheld home value for ZIP 33128 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.

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 33128 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,316 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

A taxable purchase made inside 33128 carries 7% at the register, assembled from the Miami jurisdiction stack: the Florida state rate plus every county, municipal and special district levy that reaches this address. Because those district boundaries were drawn for schools, transit and hospital funding rather than for mail delivery, two addresses inside 33128 can legitimately fall under different totals — the rate shown here is the one that applies to the dominant jurisdiction.

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 33128 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.
