ZIP code 84760

ZIP 84760 is a small town in Iron County, Utah, with 1,023 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #164 of 299 ranked by population — larger than 45% of them. The median age here is 34.8 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 84760 earn a median of $42,149 a year, 46.3% below the national figure of $78,538. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 7.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 84760 is valued at $267,600, 11.8% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,089 a month, 22.5% below the national figure, or roughly $13,068 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 6.3×, 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. 81.4% 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 6.3× 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.

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.

ZIP 84760 is tabulated inside Iron County, Utah, one of 10 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 299 across Utah. 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 84760 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 84760 reports a median household income of $42,149, 34% below the $64,193 county median, and 46% below the $78,550 typical UT ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $267,600, 13% below the county figure and 26% below the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,089 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 84760 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 84760 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.
