What these numbers say together
Shoshoni, WY (ZIP 82649) sits in Fremont County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Annual Checkup comes in above the national average at 67.3%. NCES lists 3 schools serving the area, 3 non-charter. 1 college or university serves the area, with median in-state tuition of $4,470. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $63,913, well above the ~$45K national average per return. FEMA has issued 6 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 2010. Annual precipitation averages just 8.0" per NOAA's 1991–2020 Normals — an arid-climate ZCTA where landscaping and water-budget choices matter more than national averages suggest. County Health Rankings reports 16,823 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. Wyoming has no state income tax, saving the local median household (AGI $63,913) approximately $2,940/year vs the US average effective state tax rate. New residents arriving here predominantly come from Natrona County, WY (IRS SOI Migration, 2022-2023). 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 $54,063, fair market rent of $960 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $193,425, down 3.7% 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.
One concrete reading worth keeping: Depression prevalence sits near the national rate at 20.7%. 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.
