Fresh.Data current as of Apr 24, 2026
Interlaken, CA (ZIP 95076) sits in Santa Cruz County within the Santa Cruz-Watsonville metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 26. Top health signal: Annual Checkup comes in above the national average at 68.5%. NCES lists 31 schools serving the area, 31 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $1,508. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $74,687, well above the ~$45K national average per return. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 79th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. FEMA has issued 46 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1967 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Premature-mortality burden is comparatively low at 5,482 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (County Health Rankings, 2025). California levies a graduated state income tax (top rate 13.30%); a household at the local median AGI of $74,687 would pay roughly $5,960/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 2,728 residents (1,583 households) — the ZIP's primary county is shrinking. 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 $86,062, fair market rent of $3,440 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $839,536, down 0.3% 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
Interlaken, CA (ZIP 95076) sits in Santa Cruz County within the Santa Cruz-Watsonville metro area. The page draws on 2 federal data feeds retrieved Apr 26. Top health signal: Annual Checkup comes in above the national average at 68.5%. NCES lists 31 schools serving the area, 31 non-charter. 10 colleges and universities serve the area, with median in-state tuition of $1,508. IRS data shows average household income (AGI) of $74,687, well above the ~$45K national average per return. CDC's Social Vulnerability Index places this ZIP in the 79th percentile nationally — a highly vulnerable community profile. FEMA has issued 46 federal disaster declarations affecting this ZIP since 1967 — a high-frequency exposure profile. Premature-mortality burden is comparatively low at 5,482 years of potential life lost per 100,000 (County Health Rankings, 2025). California levies a graduated state income tax (top rate 13.30%); a household at the local median AGI of $74,687 would pay roughly $5,960/year before deductions. IRS migration data (2022-2023) shows a net loss of 2,728 residents (1,583 households) — the ZIP's primary county is shrinking. 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 $86,062, fair market rent of $3,440 for a two-bedroom, and a typical home value of $839,536, down 0.3% 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.
These readings invert. Education density is the headline; healthcare access numbers suggest provider choice and coverage are worth shopping carefully. The two domains don’t move together at the ZIP level — both deserve their own due diligence rather than a single judgment.
