Zip Code:
93640 is a California Zip code within the city of Mendota and the county of Fresno County. Its population is roughly 12,920.
The Mendota, CA 93640 zip code has a population of approximately 10,000 people. The median household income in Mendota is $87,000 and the median home value is $368,000. Home equity in Mendota is very high compared to other zip codes in California. The average home equity in Mendota is $222,000. This means that the majority of households in Mendota have more than enough money to cover any potential financial emergencies that may arise.
Mendota's high home equity can be attributed to a number of factors. First, the city has a low unemployment rate and a strong economy overall. Second, there are relatively few homes for sale in Mendota compared to other areas of California. This means that homeownership rates are high and there is competition for limited housing stock. Third, many homeowners in MendOTA have taken advantage of low interest rates over the past few years to borrow money against their homes' values and increase their net worths substantially. Fourth, Mendota's residents are generally wealthy enough not to need much money from their homes' equity anyway - they can typically afford mortgage payments plus other expenses like property taxes and insurance premiums without having to tap into their home equity too much. Fifth, many homeowners in Mendota have taken advantage of government programs like FHA or VA loans which allow them to borrow more money against their homes than would be available through traditional lenders. Sixth, many people who live in Mendota own their homes outright rather than renting them - this increases the value of their home equity even further since it takes longer for renters to recoup lost investment funds through rent payments (assuming they ever do). Seventh, because there are so few houses for sale on the market and because those houses that do come up for sale tend to sell quickly due to high demand from buyers who already own property elsewhere in town or throughout Northern California, prices for single family homes have been increasing faster than average throughout most of MendOTA's history (although this trend seems to be changing somewhat as housing prices continue rising faster than wages). Eighth, unlike some other parts of California where land values are skyrocketing due to rapid development and an influx of new residents (eastern Contra Costa County being one example), land values haven't increased dramatically in MendOTA over the past several years which has helped keep house prices relatively stable despite continued strong demand from buyers (and limited supply). Ninth and finally - although not always directly responsible - zoning laws which restrict what types of buildings can be built near certain areas can also contribute significantly towards higher home values by limiting competition from lower-priced housing options nearby (this phenomenon is sometimes referred as "the McMansion effect"). Taken together these various factors have created a situation where nearly half (48%)of all households living within the boundaries of the 93640 zip code own at least one piece of residential real estate - an extremely high percentage when compared with most other parts of California!
