Household Median Income by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Arkansas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The northwest corner of Arkansas, encompassing the Bentonville-Fayetteville-Rogers metropolitan area, displays the highest concentration of median household incomes, with several zip codes exceeding $100,000—likely driven by the economic influence of Walmart's headquarters and the University of Arkansas. A stark contrast exists in the Mississippi Delta region along the eastern border and parts of the south-central Ouachita Mountains, where numerous zip codes fall below $30,000, reflecting persistent rural poverty in those areas. The central corridor around Little Rock shows moderate-to-high incomes in suburban zip codes, particularly to the west, while the city core and surrounding rural areas trend noticeably lower.
