Fresh.Data current as of Apr 24, 2026
Ponderosa Pine, NM (ZIP 87059) sits in Bernalillo County within the Albuquerque metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 38.0%. NCES lists 2 schools serving the area, 2 non-charter. 2 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $2,007. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $90,463, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Federal QCEW filings show 347,440 covered jobs in this ZIP's primary county — a major regional employment hub. FDIC counts just 1 bank branch in this ZIP (Summary of Deposits, 2024) — residents likely lean on neighboring ZIPs or online banking for most services. Fire accounts for 55% of the 11 FEMA disaster declarations on record for this ZIP. Annual precipitation averages just 14.9" 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 11,524 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. Fast-food restaurants outnumber grocery stores roughly 8-to-1 per capita (USDA Food Environment Atlas) — a "food swamp" pattern often linked to higher diet-related disease prevalence. New Mexico levies a graduated state income tax (top rate 5.90%); a household at the local median AGI of $90,463 would pay roughly $3,202/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 3,432 residents (887 households) — the ZIP's primary county is shrinking. 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 $90,082, fair market rent of $1,350 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $444,128, up 2.2% 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.

What these numbers say together
Ponderosa Pine, NM (ZIP 87059) sits in Bernalillo County within the Albuquerque metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 27. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 38.0%. NCES lists 2 schools serving the area, 2 non-charter. 2 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $2,007. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $90,463, well above the ~$45K national average per return. Federal QCEW filings show 347,440 covered jobs in this ZIP's primary county — a major regional employment hub. FDIC counts just 1 bank branch in this ZIP (Summary of Deposits, 2024) — residents likely lean on neighboring ZIPs or online banking for most services. Fire accounts for 55% of the 11 FEMA disaster declarations on record for this ZIP. Annual precipitation averages just 14.9" 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 11,524 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (2025) — well above the national county median. Fast-food restaurants outnumber grocery stores roughly 8-to-1 per capita (USDA Food Environment Atlas) — a "food swamp" pattern often linked to higher diet-related disease prevalence. New Mexico levies a graduated state income tax (top rate 5.90%); a household at the local median AGI of $90,463 would pay roughly $3,202/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 3,432 residents (887 households) — the ZIP's primary county is shrinking. 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 $90,082, fair market rent of $1,350 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $444,128, up 2.2% 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 25.2%. 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.
