The median age here is 37.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole.

Households in ZIP 41712 earn a median of not published a year. 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 18.8% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 41712 is valued at $131,000, 56.8% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 75.6% 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.

With 336 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare ZIP 41712 against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income, gross rent for ZIP 41712 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.

Kentucky charges 6% statewide, and no local sales tax is layered on top, so the state rate is the full amount collected in 41712.

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.
