What these numbers say together
Pitkin, LA (ZIP 70656) sits in Vernon Parish. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 42.6%. NCES lists 1 schools serving the area, 1 non-charter. 4 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $6,397. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $61,610, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Local establishments report average pay of $31,227 per worker (Census ZBP) — below the US average. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $48,821 per worker, roughly 25% below the US average. FEMA has issued 56 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 60.5" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. County Health Rankings reports 11,102 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. Per USDA's Food Environment Atlas, 49.3% of residents in this county live more than 1 mile (urban) or 10 miles (rural) from the nearest supermarket — a deep food-access gap. Louisiana levies a flat state income tax (top rate 3.00%); a household at the local median AGI of $61,610 would pay roughly $1,109/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 896 residents (349 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 $57,551, fair market rent of $1,170 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $127,479, down 10.5% 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 28.6%. 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.
