U.S. Citizens (% of Population Over 18) by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Washington D.C. Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Zip codes in the outer suburban ring—particularly in southern Prince William County, eastern Prince George's County near Bowie, and parts of northern Montgomery County—consistently report U.S. citizenship rates above 95% among the adult population, appearing in yellow-green tones. In sharp contrast, a corridor of low citizenship rates (75–82%) runs through areas near Gaithersburg, Wheaton-Silver Spring, Tysons Corner, and portions of western Alexandria and Manassas, reflecting the region's established immigrant gateway communities. The District of Columbia itself presents a notably mixed pattern, with some central zip codes exceeding 95% while adjacent neighborhoods drop below 85%, highlighting significant intra-city demographic variation.
