ZIP 05439 settlement vs Chittenden County

ZIP 05439 itself is about 8,933 people per Census sq mi across 0.2 sq mi (1,340 residents), a postal settlement fact independent of the county UCR proxy.

ZIP 05439 is about 0.8% of the county reporting population (1,340 of 168,323), so most of the denominator and submitted incidents sit outside this postal code.

Chittenden County's 2024 UCR book concentrates in larceny-theft (100% of 338 offenses; mix index 10,000). ZIP 05439 inherits that county mix, not a postal-native split.

Settlement lines use Census ZCTA figures only; incomplete county agency coverage blocks any UCR mix or rate desk for this ZIP.
