What these numbers say together

Sanborn, ND (ZIP 58480) sits in Barnes County. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in below the national average at 5.5%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. 2 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $22,345. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $70,359, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $51,625 per worker, roughly 21% below the US average.

North Dakota levies a flat state income tax (top rate 2.50%); a household at the local median AGI of $70,359 would pay roughly $1,055/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 96 residents (79 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.

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 19.8%. 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.
