Russellville, AR (ZIP 72801) sits in Pope County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Obesity comes in above the national average at 43.6%. NCES lists 8 schools serving the area, 8 non-charter. 3 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $17,312. 24% of returns claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (IRS), a higher share than most ZIPs. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $50,324 per worker, roughly 23% below the US average. The most recent FEMA disaster declaration here was winter storm-related (SEVERE WINTER STORM, 2026). 23% of adults self-report fair or poor health (County Health Rankings, 2025) — above the national county median. Fast-food restaurants outnumber grocery stores roughly 8-to-1 per capita (USDA Food Environment Atlas) — a "food swamp" pattern often linked to higher diet-related disease prevalence. Arkansas levies a flat state income tax (top rate 3.90%); a household at the local median AGI of $52,492 would pay roughly $1,228/year before deductions. New residents arriving here predominantly come from Yell County, AR (IRS SOI Migration, 2022-2023).

Notable: median household income $38,216, fair market rent of $910 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $172,372, down 0.5% 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.

What these numbers say together
Russellville, AR (ZIP 72801) sits in Pope County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Obesity comes in above the national average at 43.6%. NCES lists 8 schools serving the area, 8 non-charter. 3 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $17,312. 24% of returns claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (IRS), a higher share than most ZIPs. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $50,324 per worker, roughly 23% below the US average. The most recent FEMA disaster declaration here was winter storm-related (SEVERE WINTER STORM, 2026). 23% of adults self-report fair or poor health (County Health Rankings, 2025) — above the national county median. Fast-food restaurants outnumber grocery stores roughly 8-to-1 per capita (USDA Food Environment Atlas) — a "food swamp" pattern often linked to higher diet-related disease prevalence. Arkansas levies a flat state income tax (top rate 3.90%); a household at the local median AGI of $52,492 would pay roughly $1,228/year before deductions. New residents arriving here predominantly come from Yell County, AR (IRS SOI Migration, 2022-2023). Schools are the headline here — lots of options at varying types — while healthcare access numbers suggest worth-shopping coverage and provider choice carefully. Notable: median household income $38,216, fair market rent of $910 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $172,372, down 0.5% 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.
These two readings tell a consistent story. Strong access numbers usually correlate with denser provider networks, and a high school count signals the population base that supports them. Reading them together: a household weighing this ZIP for a multi-year stay can expect both healthcare and education infrastructure to keep pace.
- With fair market rent at $910/month (HUD SAFMR) and median household income at $38,216 (Census ACS), housing costs represent approximately 29% of income.
- Lower median household income ($38,216, Census ACS) sits alongside an above-average 43.6% 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 26.3%. 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.
