FDIC counts just 1 bank branch in this ZIP (Summary of Deposits, 2024) — residents likely lean on neighboring ZIPs or online banking for most services.

What these numbers say together
Carl Junction, MO (ZIP 64834) sits in Jasper County within the Joplin metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in below the national average at 7.3%. NCES lists 6 schools serving the area, 6 non-charter. 9 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $8,960. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $72,159, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Local establishments report average pay of $33,783 per worker (Census ZBP) — below the US average. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $50,009 per worker, roughly 24% below the US average. FDIC counts just 1 bank branch in this ZIP (Summary of Deposits, 2024) — residents likely lean on neighboring ZIPs or online banking for most services. Social vulnerability is low in this ZIP at the 16th percentile (CDC SVI), reflecting strong baseline resilience to public-health emergencies and natural disasters. FEMA has issued 22 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1973 — a high-frequency exposure profile. County Health Rankings reports 10,590 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. 26.1% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Missouri levies a graduated state income tax (top rate 4.70%); a household at the local median AGI of $72,159 would pay roughly $2,035/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 1,116 residents (581 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. Notable: median household income $74,383, fair market rent of $1,200 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $251,167, up 0.6% 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 25.2%. 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.
