Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in above the national average at 40.2%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. 4 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $2,646. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $43,379 per worker, roughly 34% below the US average.

What these numbers say together
El Indio, TX (ZIP 78860) sits in Maverick County within the Eagle Pass metro area. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in above the national average at 40.2%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. 4 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $2,646. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $43,379 per worker, roughly 34% below the US average. BLS LAUS records a 7.9% county unemployment rate (2024) — about 3.9 points above the US average and a labor-market distress signal. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 94th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. FEMA has issued 14 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1990. County Health Rankings reports 10,667 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. 30.8% of residents in this county are flagged low-access by USDA's 2025 Food Environment Atlas — a notable supermarket-access gap. Texas has no state income tax (Tax Foundation 2025). IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 391 residents (248 households) — the ZIP's primary county is shrinking. Both healthcare access and on-paper school density skew lighter than national norms; what shows up here is a snapshot, not a verdict — neighborhood-level texture matters at this scale. Notable: fair market rent of $1,150 for a two-bedroom and a typical home value of $201,114, up 1.6% 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.
Both surfaces skew lighter than national averages. That isn’t a verdict — small-area estimates compress real neighborhood-level texture, and a single ZIP reading can miss a district line or a hospital corridor sitting just outside it. Treat this as a starting point for fieldwork, not a conclusion.
One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits lower the national rate at 18.8%. 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.
