What these numbers say together
Lakeview, TX (ZIP 79239) sits in Hall County. The page draws on 1 federal data feed retrieved Apr 24. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 49.6%. No NCES schools are mapped to this ZIP in the current dataset. 1 college or university serves the area, with median in-state tuition of $3,720. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $38,203 per worker, roughly 42% below the US average. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 90th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. FEMA has issued 18 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1989. 25.1% of residents under 65 lack health insurance per the 2025 County Health Rankings — a notable access gap.

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.

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 ($990/month, HUD SAFMR) represents 38% of median household income ($31,250, Census ACS) — above the 30% affordability threshold commonly used by housing experts.
- Lower median household income ($31,250, Census ACS) sits alongside an above-average 38.3% obesity rate (CDC PLACES) — a pattern that correlates with reduced healthcare access in lower-income areas.
One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits near the national rate at 21.7%. 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.
