ZIP 84604 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 84604 is a small city in Utah County, Utah, with 43,749 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #21 of 299 ranked by population — larger than 93% of them. The median age here is 23.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 84604 earn a median of $74,522 a year, 5.1% 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 18.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 84604 is valued at $520,500, 71.6% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,128 a month, 19.8% below the national figure, or roughly $13,536 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.2% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 7×, 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. 50.7% 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.

Home values sit at 7× 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 23.6 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.

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 84604 in context

How 84604 sits inside Utah County and Utah.

ZIP 84604 is tabulated inside Utah County, Utah, one of 24 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 299 across Utah. This is a dense urban ZIP, where a single postal boundary can hold more residents than an entire rural county. 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 84604 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 84604 reports a median household income of $74,522, 24% below the $97,716 county median, and 5% below the $78,550 typical UT ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $520,500, 11% above the county figure and 43% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,128 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Utah charges 4.85% statewide, and local governments overlapping 84604 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 84604 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.
