What these numbers say together
King George, VA (ZIP 22485) sits in King George County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in below the national average at 7.8%. NCES lists 4 schools serving the area, 4 non-charter. 2 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $14,640. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $92,885, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS QCEW puts average annual pay at $94,680 per worker — about 45% above the US average and a clear high-wage signal. FEMA has issued 31 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1969 — a high-frequency exposure profile. New residents arriving here predominantly come from Spotsylvania County, VA (IRS SOI Migration, 2022-2023). 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 $103,931, fair market rent of $1,400 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $470,274, up 2.3% 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.
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 23.6%. 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.
