What these numbers say together

Blue Ridge, GA (ZIP 30513) sits in Fannin County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 45.0%. NCES lists 4 schools serving the area, 4 non-charter. 9 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $23,950. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $87,095, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $44,667 per worker, roughly 32% below the US average. United Community Bank holds 61% of FDIC-reported deposits in this ZIP (2024) — a notably concentrated local banking market. FEMA has issued 20 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1974 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 60.3" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. County Health Rankings reports 12,245 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. Fast-food restaurants outnumber grocery stores roughly 4-to-1 per capita (USDA Food Environment Atlas) — a "food swamp" pattern often linked to higher diet-related disease prevalence. Georgia levies a flat state income tax (top rate 5.39%); a household at the local median AGI of $87,095 would pay roughly $2,817/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 764 residents (370 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 $55,648, fair market rent of $970 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $511,588, down 0.1% 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 21.2%. 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.
