So what’s all this mean? Well, certainly it means that the total # of jobs as far as growth shifted to the 270 suburbs the last decade, but at the same time, those jobs that remained in the core areas still grew in income. Some suburbs had good and bad, and so did the urban core areas. Most of the area saw wage growth, but where it occurred the strongest was definitely all over the map. The lowest incomes were almost entirely in rural and far suburban areas.įinally, the % change of average income from 2000-2010. Most of the High Street corridor was fairly strong as well. Other strong areas include parts of Westerville, New Albany and Dublin. Downtown, for example, averaged some of the highest incomes in the city. What this map seems to show is that, while jobs may be moving to the I-270 suburbs, pay for those jobs is decidedly mixed across the city. The second map is for average employee income by zip code. This is an interesting map as it implies that the nearest suburban areas are attracting the most jobs, but that these suburbs are are both pulling from the inner core, but also from much further out. The biggest growth was in the areas along and just outside of 270.
COLUMBUS ZIP CODE CODE
A lot of requests for zip code data come into this site, so I thought it might be a good idea to provide some.įirst, we have a map for the Columbus area that includes the % of of employees in a particular zip code from 2000-2010.įrom this map, the urban areas of Columbus seem to have lost the most % of their employees the last decade, along with the far suburban and rural areas.
