graphic area in Oregon as well
as throughout the United Mates
is contained in the new IRS
publication, "Statistics of In

port. ZIP Code Area Data from
Individual Income Tax Returns
Erickson said that the new
booklet marks the first publl
cation by the Fdeeral Govern

small areas in which the postal
ZIP Code system has been used
for geographic classifications.
Previously such IRS data were
available only lor each state and
the 100 largest standard metro

Other data relating to Oregon
show that 721,570 returns were
filed. Including 427.976 joint re

son.
On a state-wide basis, indi
vidual Income tax liability to
taled $585,522,000 on adjusted
gross income of $1,714,068,000.
Since the ZIP Code system
tends to reflect transportaton
patterns and patterns of com
merce, the statistical material in
the new publication will be es
pecially useful in approximat
ing Oregon's marketing or com
muting areas, Erickson said.
All of the area tabulations in
the publication are identified by
the first three digits of the five
digit ZIP Code. Of the 837 list
ings, 199 are for large cities and
the other 638 for suburban or
rural areas.
For each ZIP Code area list
ing, the IRS publication includes
a tabulation by size of income,
of the number of returns filed,
number of joint returns filed by
husbands and wives, number of
exemptions claimed for taxpay
ers and their families, adjusted
gross income, and total tax li
ability. Erickson said that the publi
cation breaks the size of income
down into three groupings for
each ZIP Code area: Unde
$3,000; $3,000 to $10,0; and
SlO.OOO or mnro

In many Instances, students
Qualifying as Oregon Scholars
also received a monetary grant,
Lee said.
"However, Oregon Scholars
awards are based solely on aca
demic achievement, and schol
arship grants must be made on
the basis of financial need as
well as academic excellence,"
Lee explained.
"The need for financial aid
among those who are also out
standing academically makes it
unjustifiable to use scholarship
funds for recognition purposes,"
Lee said.
Citing the academic achieve
ment of recipients of state
scholarships and Oregon Schol
ars awards, Lee said that the
grade point average of those re
ceiving this year's scholarship
grants was 3.55, or an A-minus
average during high school. Re
cipients of Oregon scholars
awards had an average grade
point of 3.77.
