What these numbers say together
Garden, UT (ZIP 84038) sits in Rich County. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Depression comes in above the national average at 26.9%. NCES lists 2 schools serving the area, 2 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $14,094. BLS QCEW reports average annual pay of $43,704 per worker, roughly 33% below the US average. The CDC SVI flags household composition (89th percentile) as this ZIP's standout vulnerability dimension, sitting well above its overall 50th-percentile score. FEMA has issued 5 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1977. Annual average temperature is just 43.0°F per NOAA's 1991–2020 Climate Normals — a notably cold-weather climate. Per USDA's Food Environment Atlas, 100.0% of residents in this county live more than 1 mile (urban) or 10 miles (rural) from the nearest supermarket — a deep food-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. Notable: median household income $90,481, fair market rent of $1,130 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $750,038, up 12.8% 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 higher the national rate at 26.9%. 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.
