What these numbers say together
AR 71952 (ZIP 71952) sits in Pike County. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 41.9%.

BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $41,635 per worker, roughly 36% below the US average. FEMA has issued 23 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1968 — a high-frequency exposure profile.

IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 70 residents (15 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.

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 21.7%. 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.
