The 78732 zip code, which includes Steiner Ranch, continues to have the highest median household income in Austin, according to updated U.S. Census Bureau data from the 2011 – 2015 American Community Survey five-year estimates.
From 2011-2015, the median income of households in 78732 was $132,980. An estimated 42 percent of households had income of $150,000 or more.
William Mellor, vice president of Angelou Economics, said while his firm has not done an analysis on individual zip codes in the city, there has been a trend of significant growth in west Austin.
“That area of the city has been growing significantly over the last couple of years,” Mellor said. “In terms of trends, we notice a lot of CEOs living in that area of town, so it’s not surprising to see the incomes growing so much.”
