What these numbers say together
Apex, NC (ZIP 27562) sits in Chatham County within the Durham-Chapel Hill 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 6.0%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $8,994. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $152,455, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Average annual pay across local establishments runs $110,735 per worker (Census ZBP) — a high-wage local economy. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $51,876 per worker, roughly 21% below the US average. Social vulnerability is low in this ZIP at the 17th percentile (CDC SVI), reflecting strong baseline resilience to public-health emergencies and natural disasters. FEMA has issued 29 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1968 — a high-frequency exposure profile. North Carolina levies a flat state income tax (top rate 4.25%); a household at the local median AGI of $152,455 would pay roughly $3,888/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 2,397 residents (936 households) — the ZIP's primary county is growing. 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 $155,406, fair market rent of $2,020 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $684,451, down 1.3% 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 23.7%. 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.
