Fresh.Data current as of Apr 24, 2026
Needles, CA (ZIP 92363) sits in San Bernardino County within the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 26. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 43.6%. NCES lists 6 schools serving the area, 6 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $1,425. 28% of returns claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (IRS), a higher share than most ZIPs. Local establishments report average pay of $34,525 per worker (Census ZBP) — below the US average. Federal QCEW filings show 845,908 covered jobs in this ZIP's primary county — a major regional employment hub. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 86th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. FEMA has issued 61 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. NOAA's 1991–2020 Climate Normals put the annual average temperature at 76.2°F here — among the warmest in the country. EPA AQS records a median daily AQI of 87 for the primary county (2024) — in the Moderate-to-Unhealthy band, with ozone as the primary pollutant on most measured days. 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. California levies a graduated state income tax (top rate 13.30%); a household at the local median AGI of $54,575 would pay roughly $4,355/year before deductions. Per IRS migration filings (2022-2023), the area's primary county lost $466,630,000 in net taxable income to other counties. 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 $39,155, fair market rent of $2,080 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $192,350, down 5.1% 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
Needles, CA (ZIP 92363) sits in San Bernardino County within the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 26. Top health signal: High Blood Pressure comes in above the national average at 43.6%. NCES lists 6 schools serving the area, 6 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $1,425. 28% of returns claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (IRS), a higher share than most ZIPs. Local establishments report average pay of $34,525 per worker (Census ZBP) — below the US average. Federal QCEW filings show 845,908 covered jobs in this ZIP's primary county — a major regional employment hub. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 86th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. FEMA has issued 61 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1965 — a high-frequency exposure profile. NOAA's 1991–2020 Climate Normals put the annual average temperature at 76.2°F here — among the warmest in the country. EPA AQS records a median daily AQI of 87 for the primary county (2024) — in the Moderate-to-Unhealthy band, with ozone as the primary pollutant on most measured days. 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. California levies a graduated state income tax (top rate 13.30%); a household at the local median AGI of $54,575 would pay roughly $4,355/year before deductions. Per IRS migration filings (2022-2023), the area's primary county lost $466,630,000 in net taxable income to other counties. 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 $39,155, fair market rent of $2,080 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $192,350, down 5.1% 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.
- Fair market rent for a two-bedroom ($2,080/month, HUD SAFMR) represents 64% of median household income ($39,155, Census ACS) — above the 30% affordability threshold commonly used by housing experts.
- Lower median household income ($39,155, Census ACS) sits alongside an above-average 38.4% obesity rate (CDC PLACES) — a pattern that correlates with reduced healthcare access in lower-income areas.
