Median Age by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Phoenix Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The northeast portions of the metro area, particularly zip codes in and around Scottsdale and the far north, skew significantly older with median ages reaching into the upper 50s and 60s, likely reflecting established retirement and affluent communities. In sharp contrast, central Phoenix and areas near Tempe display notably younger median ages in the low-to-mid 20s, consistent with university populations and higher-density rental housing. The western suburbs around Glendale and the outer southern fringe exhibit moderate median ages in the 30s and 40s, forming a transitional band between the younger urban core and the older northeastern periphery.
