ZIP code 89411

ZIP 89411 is a small town in Douglas County, Nevada, with 1,264 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #119 of 180 ranked by population — larger than 34% of them. The median age here is 65.1 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 89411 earn a median of $127,083 a year, 61.8% above 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 3.6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 89411 is valued at $1,067,400, 251.8% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 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. 93.5% 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. 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. A median age of 65.1 puts ZIP 89411 well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages.

The Census withheld gross rent for ZIP 89411 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.

ZIP 89411 is tabulated inside Douglas County, Nevada, one of 8 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 180 across Nevada. 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 89411 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 89411 reports a median household income of $127,083, 38% above the $91,778 county median, and 68% above the $75,764 typical NV ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $1,067,400, 48% above the county figure and 186% above the statewide ZIP median. 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.

Nevada charges 4.6% statewide, and local governments overlapping 89411 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 89411 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.
