What these numbers say together
CT 06024 (ZIP 06024) sits in Litchfield County. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in below the national average at 8.2%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. 7 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $10,778. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $85,935, well above the ~$45K national average per return. FEMA has issued 31 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1978 — a high-frequency exposure profile.

Connecticut levies a graduated state income tax (top rate 6.99%); a household at the local median AGI of $85,935 would pay roughly $3,604/year before deductions. 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.

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 near the national rate at 23.7%. 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.
