What these numbers say together

Huntsville, TX (ZIP 77320) sits in Walker County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: Obesity comes in above the national average at 40.6%. NCES lists 10 schools serving the area, 10 non-charter. 3 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $7,720. 22% of returns claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (IRS), a higher share than most ZIPs. FDIC counts just 2 bank branches in this ZIP (Summary of Deposits, 2024) — residents likely lean on neighboring ZIPs or online banking for most services. FEMA has issued 45 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1973 — a high-frequency exposure profile. 18.6% of residents under 65 lack health insurance per the 2025 County Health Rankings — a notable access gap. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net gain of 1,024 residents (410 households) — the ZIP's primary county is growing.

Every figure on this page links to its underlying federal dataset with a retrieval date so you can audit the freshness yourself.

These readings invert. Education density is the headline; healthcare access numbers suggest provider choice and coverage are worth shopping carefully. The two domains don’t move together at the ZIP level — both deserve their own due diligence rather than a single judgment.

One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits near the national rate at 20.9%. 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.
