Choose the 2nd item, "DP-3 Profile of Selected Economic Characteristics", and click "Next" (on the bottom right). This will take you to a new screen.
For "Choose a selection method", select "list"
For "Select a geographic type", select "5-Digit Zip Code Tabulation Area" (it's the one at the very bottom).
For "Select a 3-digit ZIP code tabulation area", select the first 3 numbers of the zip code you are interested in.
For "Select one or more geographic areas and click 'Add'", select a zip code and click "Add", then click another zip code and click "Add", etc. After you've selected a few zip codes (there's no limit on how many), click "Show Results".
