ZIP 68324 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 68324 is a very small community in Otoe County, Nebraska, with 96 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #543 of 586 ranked by population — larger than 7% of them. The median age here is 44.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 68324 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 9.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 68324 is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 92.9% 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 96 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare ZIP 68324 against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income, home value, gross rent for ZIP 68324 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.

Reading ZIP 68324 in context

How 68324 sits inside Otoe County and Nebraska.

ZIP 68324 is tabulated inside Otoe County, Nebraska, one of 11 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 586 across Nebraska. This is one of the smallest tabulated ZIP areas in the state, the kind of rural route where a single subdivision or farm cluster accounts for most addresses. 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 68324 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 68324 reports a median household income of not published. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of not published. 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.

Nebraska charges 5.5% statewide, and local governments overlapping 68324 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 68324 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.
