Fresh.Data current as of Apr 24, 2026
LA 70753 (ZIP 70753) sits in Pointe Coupee Parish within the Baton Rouge metro area. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24.

Average annual pay across local establishments runs $83,626 per worker (Census ZBP) — a high-wage local economy. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 92th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. FEMA has issued 46 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 58.5" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. County Health Rankings reports 13,129 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. 29.2% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Louisiana levies a flat state income tax (top rate 3.00%); a household at the local median AGI of $46,265 would pay roughly $833/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 115 residents (45 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.

What these numbers say together
LA 70753 (ZIP 70753) sits in Pointe Coupee Parish within the Baton Rouge metro area. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 52.2%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. 3 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $4,079. 29% of returns claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (IRS), a higher share than most ZIPs. Average annual pay across local establishments runs $83,626 per worker (Census ZBP) — a high-wage local economy. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 92th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. FEMA has issued 46 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 58.5" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. County Health Rankings reports 13,129 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. 29.2% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Louisiana levies a flat state income tax (top rate 3.00%); a household at the local median AGI of $46,265 would pay roughly $833/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 115 residents (45 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 $30,772, fair market rent of $1,100 for a two-bedroom, and a median home value of $80,200. 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.
- Fair market rent for a two-bedroom ($1,100/month, HUD SAFMR) represents 43% of median household income ($30,772, Census ACS) — above the 30% affordability threshold commonly used by housing experts.
- Lower median household income ($30,772, Census ACS) sits alongside an above-average 43.3% obesity rate (CDC PLACES) — a pattern that correlates with reduced healthcare access in lower-income areas.
One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits higher the national rate at 25.9%. 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.
