ZIP code 37028

ZIP 37028 is a very small community in Stewart County, Tennessee, with 613 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #564 of 638 ranked by population — larger than 11% of them. The median age here is 35.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 37028 earn a median of $56,765 a year, 27.7% below the national figure of $78,538. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 0.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 37028 is valued at $153,800, 49.3% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 84.8% 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. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

With 613 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare ZIP 37028 against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for ZIP 37028 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 37028 is tabulated inside Stewart County, Tennessee, one of 5 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 638 across Tennessee. 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 37028 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 37028 reports a median household income of $56,765, 6% below the $60,463 county median, and 4% below the $59,143 typical TN ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $153,800, 15% below the county figure and 21% below 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.

Tennessee charges 7% statewide, and local governments overlapping 37028 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 37028 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.
