I just saw this on Good Morning Silicon Valley - it's worth a look: zipskinny.com. Just put in your zip and see what's going on, census-wise, in your hood.
I found out that in my zip, there is not a single person involved in Farming and Forestry. We don't have any Native Americans either. We're mostly a white (75%), middle-aged hood. Almost half (44%) of people in the zip have a college degree and 45% of them have been in the same house for 5+ years. All the data is from the 2000 census.
I also found out that everyone living in Achilles, VA is below the poverty line and that everyone in a zip in Columbia, SC is married. There's just endless info for your researching pleasure.
