Essex County · Boston-Cambridge-Newton, MA-NH · Population 803
Beverly, MA (ZIP 01965) sits in Essex County within the Boston-Cambridge-Newton metro area. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in below the national average at 2.8%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. 6 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $30,700. Average annual pay across local establishments runs $277,920 per worker (Census ZBP) — a high-wage local economy. Federal QCEW filings show 323,694 covered jobs in this ZIP's primary county — a major regional employment hub. Social vulnerability is low in this ZIP at the 3th percentile (CDC SVI), reflecting strong baseline resilience to public-health emergencies and natural disasters. FEMA has issued 40 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1972 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Only 3.5% of residents under 65 are uninsured (County Health Rankings, 2025) — well below the national county median. 30.1% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Per IRS migration filings (2022-2023), the area's primary county lost $186,229,000 in net taxable income to other counties. Healthcare access is the area's quieter strength; school options sit on the lighter side, so families may find themselves looking at districts a few ZIPs over. Notable: median household income $241,003, fair market rent of $2,660 for a two-bedroom, and a low 2.3% poverty rate. Every figure on this page links to its underlying federal dataset with a retrieval date so you can audit the freshness yourself.

The two domains pull in different directions. Healthcare access reads strong, but the on-paper school count is on the lighter side — that’s less a quality signal and more a density one. Households here often look at districts a few ZIPs over for school choice while keeping their providers local.
One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits higher the national rate at 24.5%. Each figure on this page links to the original federal dataset with its retrieval date — this synthesis is a reading, not a substitute for the underlying records.
