Bachelor's Degree or Higher (% of Over 25) by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Philadelphia Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The suburban arc west and northwest of Philadelphia—particularly zip codes near King of Prussia and extending through much of Chester and Montgomery counties—exhibits consistently high bachelor's degree attainment, often exceeding 50%, while urban core zip codes in Philadelphia, Camden, Chester, and Trenton cluster well below 15%. A notable corridor of high educational attainment cuts through Philadelphia's Center City and extends northwest along the Main Line, creating a sharp contrast with adjacent neighborhoods just a few zip codes away. The New Jersey side of the metro shows more variability, with pockets of higher attainment in outer suburban areas giving way to markedly lower rates near Trenton and Camden.
