ZIP 37415 in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
ZIP 37415 is a mid-size town in Hamilton County, Tennessee, with 23,132 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #101 of 638 ranked by population — larger than 84% of them. The median age here is 37.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 37415 earn a median of $67,027 a year, 14.7% below the national figure of $78,538. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 11.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 37415 is valued at $261,900, 13.7% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,240 a month, 11.8% below the national figure, or roughly $14,880 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 59.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
Reading ZIP 37415 in context
How 37415 sits inside Hamilton County and Tennessee.
ZIP 37415 is tabulated inside Hamilton County, Tennessee, one of 26 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 638 across Tennessee. This is a mid-sized suburban ZIP inside a county that is split across many delivery areas. 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 37415 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.
Against its own county, 37415 reports a median household income of $67,027, close to the $66,389 county median, and 13% above the $59,143 typical TN ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $261,900, close to the county figure and 34% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,240 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.
A taxable purchase made inside 37415 carries 9.25% at the register, assembled from the Chattanooga jurisdiction stack: the Tennessee 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 37415 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 37415 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.

Affordability in this ZIP
Derived from the Census medians above — indicative, not an offer.
A rent burden above 30% is the federal threshold for cost-burdened households, and a price-to-income multiple above 4× is generally considered a stretched housing market. The mortgage figure is principal and interest only — taxes, insurance and HOA dues are extra.
