What these numbers say together

Morristown, TN (ZIP 37814) sits in Hamblen County within the Morristown metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27.

NCES lists 6 schools serving the area, 6 non-charter. 5 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $22,018. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $73,598, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $50,942 per worker, roughly 22% below the US average. The most recent FEMA disaster declaration here was winter storm-related (SEVERE WINTER STORM, 2026). County Health Rankings reports 13,647 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median.

IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 1,428 residents (655 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.

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 higher the national rate at 29.6%. 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.
