Median Age by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Kansas

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Zip codes in the northeast corner of Kansas—particularly in the Kansas City metro and surrounding Johnson and Wyandotte county areas—display a wide range of median ages, with some younger pockets in the low 30s adjacent to areas exceeding 50, reflecting the demographic diversity of suburban and urban communities. The youngest median ages, dropping below 25, appear in scattered zip codes likely corresponding to college towns such as Manhattan (Kansas State) and Lawrence (University of Kansas) in the east-central and northeast portions of the state. Western and central Kansas zip codes trend notably older, with large swaths in the 50–60+ range interspersed with yellow-highlighted areas, suggesting aging rural populations punctuated by small towns that may attract or retain younger residents.
