What these numbers say together
Gulfport, MS (ZIP 39503) sits in Harrison County within the Gulfport-Biloxi metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 40.8%. NCES lists 13 schools serving the area, 13 non-charter. 4 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $3,975. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $61,854, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $48,164 per worker, roughly 26% below the US average. FEMA has issued 36 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 68.2" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. County Health Rankings reports 11,925 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. 33.7% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Mississippi levies a flat state income tax (top rate 4.40%); a household at the local median AGI of $61,854 would pay roughly $1,633/year before deductions. New residents arriving here predominantly come from Jackson County, MS (IRS SOI Migration, 2022-2023). Healthcare access and school options both run strong here, giving residents a wide menu of providers and enrollment choices nearby. Notable: median household income $62,005, fair market rent of $1,170 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $224,198, up 1.0% 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.
These two readings tell a consistent story. Strong access numbers usually correlate with denser provider networks, and a high school count signals the population base that supports them. Reading them together: a household weighing this ZIP for a multi-year stay can expect both healthcare and education infrastructure to keep pace.
One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits near the national rate at 21.1%. 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.
