Like it or not, where you decide to live often says a lot about you.

You're not totally defined by your zip code, but a website spotted by Reddit seeks to show people what zip codes say about the average demographic, culture, and lifestyle in one's area.

Here's how it works:
The "Zip Lookup" tool is powered by Esri, a geographic-information firm based in California.Just head to the website, type in your zip code, and you'll be greeted with a breakdown of your zip code's demographic characteristics based on Esri's "Tapestry" technology, which consists of 67 unique market segment classifications.

The percentage breakdown shows you the mixture of different classifications.

Here's an example of the breakdown for Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

For Williamsburg, Brooklyn, 60% are labeled as "Trendsetters," who are described as singles "not ready to settle down, unfettered by home and vehicle ownership" and with "good jobs who spend our disposable income on upscale city living and entertainment — mostly on rent.

You can also click on the tabs "Income," "Age," and "Population Density," to learn more about your area's trends.

Here's a look at the average income for Williamsburg.


And here's a look at the age spectrum


Finally, here's population density

My current hood

54% Up and Coming Families

We're younger, more diverse, and mobile than previous generations. We took a hit during the Great Recession, but we're optimistic that we'll make it back. We're ambitious, working hard, and willing to take some risks to achieve our goals. We traded a longer commute time for an affordable new house in a new suburban development. Even though credit card debt, student loans, and mortgage payments tighten our budget, we're saving for retirement and donating to charities. Price conscious, we'll shop for the best deals, and seek opinions from others about products. Late model imported SUVs or compact cars are in our driveways. We go online for shopping, banking, entertainment, and information. Movies at home, trips to theme parks and the zoo, and working out fill our leisure time

My old hood


15% Metro Fusion

We're young, highly mobile, and live in culturally diverse neighborhoods. Many of us are couples with children or are single parents. Some of us don't speak English fluently, but most of us have moved recently. Most of us rent apartments in mid-sized buildings. In spite of our income and language challenges, we work hard and aspire for better professional and social lives. We're very into our social status, anxious to impress with the latest fashions and electronics. We stick to a few favorite designer brands and will spend impulsively unless we're saving for something important. We eat frozen dinners or go to McDonald's, Wendy's, and IHOP. The younger ones are highly connected; older folks are much less interested in technology. We watch BET, MTV, Spanish language networks, and pay-per-view on TV, and listen to R&B, Latin, rap, and reggae. Soccer and football are favorite sports

  • Household Type : Married Couples
  • Housing : Single Family
We're affluent young families who have traded up to new housing in the suburbs of growing metro areas.. Bigger houses with mortgages are our compromises for longer commutes. With an eye to the future, we're consulting with financial planners to ensure security. Style matters in décor and fashion; we're furnishing our new homes and are already contracting for remodeling projects. Late model, imported SUVs, luxury cars, or minivans are in our driveways. Even though we're adept at using our devices, we lament the loss of personal time because of being connected so frequently. Physical fitness is a priority; we work out on our home equipment or at the gym. We hike, bike, swim, golf, visit theme parks or water parks, and support charities.

Median Income: 86k :takedat:

Median Age: 36.1 :flabbynsick:

58 % Laptops and Latte's

We're affluent, well-educated singles and partner couples who love life in the big city and hold professional positions in business, finance, legal, computer, and entertainment. Most of us don't own a home or a vehicle; we rent apartments close to amenities, and either work from home or walk, bike, and take public transportation to get around. We're cultivating our nest-eggs instead of feathering our nests, investing in mutual funds and contributing to our retirement plans. Physical fitness is a priority, so we exercise regularly, pay attention to nutrition, and buy organic food at high-end grocers. Regular expenses include nice clothes, traveling, and treating ourselves to lattes at Starbucks or treatments at spas. Laptops, cell phones, and iPads are always on so we can stay connected. Leisure time is filled with visiting art galleries and museums; attending the theater, opera, and rock concerts; reading books and newspapers electronically; and going to bars and clubs.

1% Urban Chic

We're well-educated, married couple families and singles who live in the suburbs of major metros on both coasts. Professional and managerial positions in technical and legal occupations fund our exclusive, upscale, and sophisticated lifestyles. Portfolios are healthy, filled with stocks, bonds, and real estate investments. Our houses range in style from pre-war to new construction, high-rises or single-family homes; two-thirds of us own our homes. Tech savvy, we're tops for owning Apple products, and use our devices to shop, bank, and research information. Leisure time is spent visiting museums, traveling, drinking imported wine, going out to the movies, skiing, and practicing yoga

41% Trendsetters

Believing that "you're only young once", we're living life to the fullest, unfettered by home and vehicle ownership, and not ready to settle down. We're young, educated singles with good jobs who spend our disposable income on upscale city living and entertainment – mostly on rent. Even though we're spenders, we seek financial advice and are building our investment portfolios. Dressed head to toe in the most current fashions, we fill our weeknights and weekends with discovering local art and culture, dining out, or exploring new hobbies. We must be connected at all times; texting and social media are essential for communication and keeping up with our social lives. E-readers and tablets are preferred for everything except women's fashion and epicurean magazines which must be in print. We shop at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's for quick, organic meals.


:wtf: That's pretty much Park Slope in a nut shell, I can't lie. Trader Joes Shoppin', always talkin' about art to look cool ass hipsters everywhere :snoop:

We're young, Hispanic single parents or married couples with children. Grandparents help some of us with childcare. Life in our older Southwestern neighborhoods is centered on our kids. English is a struggle for our older relatives and new arrivals. Our lack of education and language skills hampers our getting good-paying jobs; blue-collar and skilled work in building maintenance and services provide opportunities. Money is tight; we earn wages and salaries, and some receive Social Security and Supplemental Security Income payments. We shop carefully, mindful of quality, price, and environmental concerns. Spending is focused on our children and home entertainment; however, we're also interested in anything that will improve or organize our lives. Hispanic TV programs provide most of our entertainment; we also listen to Hispanic radio stations. Hoping for good luck, we buy lottery tickets and gamble at casinos.
