Median Age by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Minnesota

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The Twin Cities metropolitan area and college towns such as St. Cloud and Mankato display notably lower median ages, with several zip codes falling below 30, reflecting concentrations of younger workers, families, and student populations. In contrast, the north-central lake country and portions of the northeastern Iron Range corridor skew considerably older, with median ages frequently exceeding 55, consistent with retirement-destination demographics and aging rural communities. Western Minnesota presents a more heterogeneous pattern, mixing younger agricultural zip codes with pockets of older populations in small towns, while southern Minnesota remains relatively moderate in the 35–45 range.
