Yuma, AZ (ZIP 85365) sits in Yuma County within the Yuma metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: Health Insurance comes in above the national average at 16.5%. NCES lists 10 schools serving the area, 10 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $6,368. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $69,590, well above the ~$45K national average per return. BLS LAUS records a 12.2% county unemployment rate (2024) — about 8.2 points above the US average and a labor-market distress signal. 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 6 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1983. 25% of adults self-report fair or poor health (County Health Rankings, 2025) — above the national county median. Fast-food restaurants outnumber grocery stores roughly 5-to-1 per capita (USDA Food Environment Atlas) — a "food swamp" pattern often linked to higher diet-related disease prevalence. New residents arriving here predominantly come from Maricopa County, AZ (IRS SOI Migration, 2022-2023). Schools are the headline here — lots of options at varying types — while healthcare access numbers suggest worth-shopping coverage and provider choice carefully. Notable: median household income $64,636, fair market rent of $1,670 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $331,159, up 1.4% 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.
