Hoyt, KS (ZIP 66440) sits in Jackson County within the Topeka metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Obesity comes in above the national average at 38.9%. NCES lists 2 schools serving the area, 2 non-charter. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $74,002, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $46,312 per worker, roughly 29% 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 20th percentile (CDC SVI), reflecting strong baseline resilience to public-health emergencies and natural disasters. Severe Storm accounts for 63% of the 19 FEMA disaster declarations on record for this ZIP. Kansas levies a flat state income tax (top rate 5.58%); a household at the local median AGI of $74,002 would pay roughly $2,478/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 98 residents (22 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 $74,222, fair market rent of $1,060 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $287,842, up 8.2% 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.

Hoyt, KS (ZIP 66440) sits in Jackson County within the Topeka metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Obesity comes in above the national average at 38.9%. NCES lists 2 schools serving the area, 2 non-charter. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $74,002, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $46,312 per worker, roughly 29% 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 20th percentile (CDC SVI), reflecting strong baseline resilience to public-health emergencies and natural disasters. Severe Storm accounts for 63% of the 19 FEMA disaster declarations on record for this ZIP. Kansas levies a flat state income tax (top rate 5.58%); a household at the local median AGI of $74,002 would pay roughly $2,478/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 98 residents (22 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 $74,222, fair market rent of $1,060 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $287,842, up 8.2% 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 21.5%. 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.
