Median Age by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Rhode Island

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Rhode Island's median age exhibits a clear urban-rural divide, with the youngest zip codes (under 25) concentrated in the Providence metropolitan core and areas likely associated with college campuses such as Bristol (Roger Williams University) and parts of Newport County. Suburban and exurban communities in the western and northwestern portions of the state—particularly in areas corresponding to Burrillville, Glocester, and Scituate—trend notably older, with median ages reaching into the mid-50s to low 60s. Block Island, visible at the southern extent of the map, registers a distinctly high median age consistent with its profile as a seasonal and retirement-oriented community.
