Fresh.Data current as of Apr 24, 2026
Bala Cynwyd, PA (ZIP 19004) sits in Montgomery County within the Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 26. Health-survey coverage is limited for this ZIP. NCES lists 3 schools serving the area, 3 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $52,670. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $211,878, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Average annual pay across local establishments runs $100,968 per worker (Census ZBP) — a high-wage local economy. BLS QCEW puts average annual pay at $88,412 per worker — about 35% above the US average and a clear high-wage signal. The CDC SVI flags household composition (64th percentile) as this ZIP's standout vulnerability dimension, sitting well above its overall 30th-percentile score. FEMA has issued 29 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 50.7" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. Premature-mortality burden is comparatively low at 5,470 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (County Health Rankings, 2025). 31.3% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Pennsylvania levies a flat state income tax (top rate 3.07%); a household at the local median AGI of $211,878 would pay roughly $3,903/year before deductions. Per IRS migration filings (2022-2023), the area's primary county lost $218,928,000 in net taxable income to other counties. 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 $135,662, fair market rent of $2,270 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $666,089, up 3.9% 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.

What these numbers say together
Bala Cynwyd, PA (ZIP 19004) sits in Montgomery County within the Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 26. Health-survey coverage is limited for this ZIP. NCES lists 3 schools serving the area, 3 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $52,670. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $211,878, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Average annual pay across local establishments runs $100,968 per worker (Census ZBP) — a high-wage local economy. BLS QCEW puts average annual pay at $88,412 per worker — about 35% above the US average and a clear high-wage signal. The CDC SVI flags household composition (64th percentile) as this ZIP's standout vulnerability dimension, sitting well above its overall 30th-percentile score. FEMA has issued 29 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 50.7" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. Premature-mortality burden is comparatively low at 5,470 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (County Health Rankings, 2025). 31.3% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Pennsylvania levies a flat state income tax (top rate 3.07%); a household at the local median AGI of $211,878 would pay roughly $3,903/year before deductions. Per IRS migration filings (2022-2023), the area's primary county lost $218,928,000 in net taxable income to other counties. 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 $135,662, fair market rent of $2,270 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $666,089, up 3.9% 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.
