What these numbers say together

Little Rock, AR (ZIP 72202) sits in Pulaski 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: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 39.1%. NCES lists 7 schools serving the area, 7 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $11,381. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $90,573, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Federal QCEW filings show 261,631 covered jobs in this ZIP's primary county — a major regional employment hub. FEMA has issued 33 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1968 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Annual precipitation averages 50.4" — a wet-climate ZCTA per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals. County Health Rankings reports 12,283 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. 33.0% 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 $90,573 would pay roughly $2,119/year before deductions. Per IRS migration filings (2022-2023), the area's primary county lost $129,521,000 in net taxable income to other counties. 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 $46,162, fair market rent of $1,190 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $153,144, up 0.7% 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.

  • Fair market rent for a two-bedroom ($1,190/month, HUD SAFMR) represents 31% of median household income ($46,162, Census ACS) — above the 30% affordability threshold commonly used by housing experts.
  • As a predominantly renter community (74% of occupied units, Census ACS), the 7 schools mapped here by NCES are especially relevant for families weighing the neighborhood.

One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits near the national rate at 22.9%. 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.
