What these numbers say together
South Bay, FL (ZIP 33493) sits in Palm Beach County within the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 26. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in above the national average at 26.8%. NCES lists 1 schools serving the area, 1 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $19,924. 41% of returns claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (IRS), a higher share than most ZIPs. Federal QCEW filings show 666,889 covered jobs in this ZIP's primary county — a major regional employment hub. FEMA has issued 41 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 55.2" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. Florida has no state income tax, saving the local median household (AGI $33,874) approximately $1,558/year vs the US average effective state tax rate. Per IRS migration filings (2022-2023), the area's primary county netted $3,109,649,000 in incoming taxable income — a wealth-inflow signal even when headcount churn is modest. 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 $48,080, fair market rent of $1,420 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $233,646, up 0.2% 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 lower the national rate at 14.5%. 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.
