What these numbers say together
New Market, IA (ZIP 51646) sits in Taylor County. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 41.8%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $62,981, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Average annual pay across local establishments runs $90,894 per worker (Census ZBP) — a high-wage local economy. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $51,564 per worker, roughly 21% below the US average. BLS LAUS reports county unemployment of just 2.0% (2024), well below the ~4.0% US average and consistent with a tight local labor market. Social vulnerability is low in this ZIP at the 12th percentile (CDC SVI), reflecting strong baseline resilience to public-health emergencies and natural disasters. FEMA has issued 14 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1979. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 31 residents (18 households) — the ZIP's primary county is shrinking. 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 $62,109, fair market rent of $1,070 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $135,683, up 4.9% 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 20.9%. 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.
