Overview

Understanding ZIP code 19934

ZIP code 19934 is assigned to Camden Wyoming, DE, and falls within Kent County. Like every US postal code, it began as a mail-routing device rather than a geographic boundary — the US Postal Service groups delivery routes under a single code so carriers and sorting equipment can process mail efficiently. Today it also serves as a practical shorthand for the area itself: roughly 13,579 people live inside it.

At 291 residents per square mile spread over 46.588 square miles, 19934 reads as a small-town area. It is a mid-sized postal code by population, and density shapes almost everything else on this page — how people get to work, whether they own or rent, and what housing costs.

Household earnings track close to the national picture. The median of $79,100 puts 19934 near the middle of the pack, ahead of 64% of them. The US median for comparison is $70,109. Bear in mind that median income describes the midpoint household, not the average — it is not pulled upward by a handful of very high earners the way a mean would be.

Living here

What life in Camden Wyoming looks like

Housing in 19934 costs close to the national median. A typical home is valued at $311,200 against a US median of $207,500, and median gross rent runs $1,510 a month. Ownership dominates: 82.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied, which usually signals an established residential area with relatively low turnover.

The building stock is dominated by detached single-family houses, which account for 90.1% of housing units here. The median construction year is 1997, making the housing here from the later twentieth century.

The population skews broadly in line with the national age profile, with a median age of 38.7 against 42 nationally. The average household holds 2.69 people, and 76.3% are family households.

Getting to work takes 25.3 minutes on average one way. The dominant mode is drove alone at 77.6% of workers.

Where to stay

Where to stay in Camden Wyoming, DE

Camden Wyoming is a smaller community, so options inside 19934 may be limited to a handful of independent inns, motels or bed-and-breakfast properties. Travellers often widen the search to the surrounding area, where the choice is greater and prices are usually competitive.

Median rent in 19934 is $1,510 a month, which sits in the middle of the national range; accommodation pricing locally tends to be similarly mid-market. For reference, Philadelphia, PA is about 64.8 miles away in a straight line, which is worth factoring in if you are comparing a stay here against one closer to the city centre.

Practical uses

What ZIP code 19934 is used for

Beyond addressing mail, 19934 does a lot of quiet administrative work. Retailers use it to calculate shipping and sales tax at checkout. Insurers use it to set premiums, since risk profiles vary geographically. Employers and marketers use it to define service areas. Government agencies use it to route benefits and organise reporting. If you have ever been asked for a postal code by a form that clearly does not intend to send you anything, this is why.

For anyone weighing a move, 19934 offers a compact profile of Camden Wyoming: 13,579 residents, a median household income of $79,100, 34.7% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher, and an unemployment rate of 4.4%. A handful of figures like these answer more relocation questions than most neighbourhood guides do.

One caution worth repeating: a postal code is not a neighbourhood. 19934 may cover parts of several distinct areas, and a single neighbourhood in Camden Wyoming may be split across more than one code. Boundaries also shift as USPS adjusts delivery routes. Treat the figures here as describing a delivery area, which is what they actually measure.

Does 19934 cover more than one city or county?
This page lists Camden Wyoming as the primary place and Kent County as the county. ZIP codes follow mail delivery routes rather than municipal or county lines, so a single code can straddle boundaries, and USPS also recognises alternate acceptable city names for many codes. If you need the definitive answer for a specific street address, the USPS ZIP Code Lookup is the authority.
Can ZIP code 19934 change?
Yes. USPS adjusts ZIP codes as delivery volumes shift — codes are occasionally split, merged, retired or newly created, and boundaries move more often than most people assume. The Census Bureau's ZCTA definitions, which underpin the demographic figures on this page, are redrawn only once a decade, so the two can drift apart between censuses.

On accuracy. ACS figures are survey estimates, not counts. The margin of error shown alongside the population figure means the true value has a 90% chance of falling in that range. For small ZIP codes the error can be large relative to the estimate — treat the direction as more reliable than the exact number.
