What these numbers say together
Meadville, PA (ZIP 16335) sits in Crawford County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 26. Health-survey coverage is limited for this ZIP. NCES lists 7 schools serving the area, 7 non-charter. 4 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $11,918. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $61,830, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $50,526 per worker, roughly 23% below the US average. FEMA has issued 15 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1972. New residents arriving here predominantly come from Erie County, PA (IRS SOI Migration, 2022-2023). Both healthcare access and on-paper school density skew lighter than national norms; what shows up here is a snapshot, not a verdict — neighborhood-level texture matters at this scale. Notable: median household income $59,007, fair market rent of $1,050 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $153,977, up 10.4% over the past year. Every figure on this page links to its underlying federal dataset with a retrieval date so you can audit the freshness yourself.
Both surfaces skew lighter than national averages. That isn’t a verdict — small-area estimates compress real neighborhood-level texture, and a single ZIP reading can miss a district line or a hospital corridor sitting just outside it. Treat this as a starting point for fieldwork, not a conclusion.
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.
