What these numbers say together

Plevna, MT (ZIP 59344) sits in Fallon County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Annual Checkup comes in above the national average at 69.5%. NCES lists 3 schools serving the area, 3 non-charter. 2 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $5,414. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $63,142, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Local establishments report average pay of $20,444 per worker (Census ZBP) — below the US average. BLS LAUS reports county unemployment of just 1.7% (2024), well below the ~4.0% US average and consistent with a tight local labor market. The CDC SVI flags housing & transportation (89th percentile) as this ZIP's standout vulnerability dimension, sitting well above its overall 39th-percentile score. FEMA has issued 9 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 2000. Annual average temperature is just 44.2°F per NOAA's 1991–2020 Climate Normals — a notably cold-weather climate. Montana levies a flat state income tax (top rate 5.90%); a household at the local median AGI of $63,142 would pay roughly $2,235/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 142 residents (63 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 $78,750, fair market rent of $1,390 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $210,962, up 17.5% 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 higher the national rate at 25.6%. 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.
