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

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The highest concentrations of bachelor's degree holders cluster in Portland's inner west side, Lake Oswego, and the northwest corridor stretching toward the Columbia River, where rates exceed 50% in several zip codes. A stark educational attainment gradient runs east, with Gresham and outer east Portland zip codes dropping to 10–20%, representing some of the lowest rates in the metro area. Hillsboro and Beaverton display moderate attainment levels around 30–40%, likely reflecting the influence of the tech sector employment base in Washington County.
