Housing Owner-Occupied % of Units, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Kansas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Owner-occupancy rates across Kansas zip codes generally range from 40% to over 90%, with the highest concentrations of owner-occupied housing (bright yellow, 85–90%+) appearing in rural zip codes throughout the western and central portions of the state as well as suburban areas ringing Kansas City. The lowest owner-occupancy rates (dark purple, below 50%) cluster notably in urban cores—particularly in the Wichita metro area in south-central Kansas, the Kansas City/Lawrence corridor in the northeast, and a pocket in the southwest likely corresponding to Garden City or Liberal, areas with significant renter populations tied to meatpacking industries. A broad band of moderate owner-occupancy (60–75%, shown in greens and teals) characterizes many small-city zip codes and transitional areas between rural and urban regions.
