What these numbers say together
Vilonia, AR (ZIP 72173) sits in Faulkner County within the Little Rock-North Little Rock-Conway metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Obesity comes in above the national average at 40.5%. NCES lists 4 schools serving the area, 4 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $5,017. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $70,818, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Local establishments report average pay of $34,327 per worker (Census ZBP) — below the US average. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $49,974 per worker, roughly 24% below the US average. FEMA has issued 28 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1968 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 53.3" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. 32.8% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Arkansas levies a flat state income tax (top rate 3.90%); a household at the local median AGI of $70,818 would pay roughly $1,657/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 1,577 residents (676 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 $69,724, fair market rent of $1,120 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $258,108, up 3.6% 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 27.3%. 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.
