ZIP Code 90014 — Los Angeles, California

The median home in 90014 is valued at $654,000 against a median household income of $26,550, a price-to-income ratio of 24.6. That is far above the 6.7 median across the 1,558 California ZIP codes with published housing data, and well past the 3.0 ratio that marks an attainable market nationally, which means a household earning the local median income cannot finance the local median home on conventional terms.

Renting takes 64.4% of median household income (median rent $1,424 a month), which is severely cost-burdened by the federal definition.

90014 ranks 1,550 of 1,558 statewide on median household income and 682 of 1,558 on median home value; its income is far below the $87,339 Los Angeles County median. 4% of households own their home, far below the 64% statewide ZIP median, so most residents rent. 43% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher, above the 31% median, and the poverty rate is 35.6%, far above the 10.8% statewide ZIP median and among the highest in the state. Unemployment stands at 11.6%.

With 30,910 residents per square mile across 0.3 square miles of land, 90014 is far denser than the statewide ZIP median of 1,120 (rank 9 of 1,558). This is apartment-district density: expect multi-family housing, transit access and little single-family stock.
