ZIP Code 19002, in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, has 33,279 residents in the 2020 Census (26,099 adults). CDC's PLACES project estimates 40 health measures for its adult population using a statistical model, not a local survey.

In the 2024 release it estimates that 29.1% of adults have obesity (95% confidence interval 23.8–34.7%), similar to Montgomery County's 31.5%, in line with the Pennsylvania figure of 33.8% (site aggregate), similar to the national estimate of 33.3%. Where intervals overlap the figures are described as similar, because the model cannot separate them.

Diagnosed diabetes: 9.5% of adults (95% confidence interval 8.2–11.0%) in the 2024 release, similar to Montgomery County's 10.3%, below the Pennsylvania figure of 11.6% (site aggregate), lower than the national estimate of 12.0%.

Across the 33 measures published for both, the interval for ZIP Code 19002 lies entirely above the Montgomery County interval for 0 measures, entirely below it for 1 and overlaps it for 32.

28 measures were not published for this area in the 2025 release; for those the most recent published release is shown and labelled.

7 measures have no published estimate for this area in any release kept here (the health-related social needs measures are only estimated for states that ran that survey module).

Report card: 40 measures by CDC category

Crude prevalence is the estimated share of all adults. CDC: "We don't provide age-adjusted prevalence estimates at census tract and ZCTA levels because some of these areas do not have population in all age groups used in the adjustment process."

Twelve headline measures, crude prevalence. State figures are population-weighted county estimates computed by this site and carry no interval; the county and US columns carry CDC's 95% intervals. The full report card above covers all 40.

Estimates by release

What each PLACES release published for ZIP 19002 (crude prevalence with 95% interval). CDC advises that the estimates cannot be used to track local change over time: each release re-models a different survey year onto a fixed population, intervals usually overlap and the interval method changed in 2023. Listed for reference only. The 2022 and 2023 columns use 2010-vintage Census geographies for ZIP Codes and places (the same code may have covered a different area); 2024 onward use 2020 geographies.

Questions and answers

What share of adults in ZIP Code 19002 have obesity, according to PLACES?

PLACES estimates 29.1% (95% confidence interval 23.8–34.7%) in the 2024 release, based on 2022 BRFSS responses modelled onto the area's adult population. It is a modelled estimate for the whole adult population of the area, not a count of diagnoses.

How common is diagnosed diabetes in ZIP Code 19002?

PLACES estimates 9.5% of adults (95% confidence interval 8.2–11.0%) in the 2024 release. The national estimate in the same release is 12.0%.

Is ZIP Code 19002 different from Montgomery County on obesity?

The 95% confidence intervals for ZIP Code 19002 and Montgomery County overlap for obesity, so the estimates are described as similar; the model cannot separate them.

Can these figures describe a person who lives in ZIP Code 19002?

No. CDC states: "We do not produce estimates for individuals; only aggregated results for counties, places, census tracts, or ZCTAs." The figures describe the expected prevalence across the area's adult population given its demographic make-up and its county and state; they say nothing about any resident.

Can ZIP Code 19002 be ranked or tracked over time with these figures?

CDC advises that the data "should not be used for ranking the overall health of any county, place, census tract, or ZCTA" and that the modelling procedure "does not support using the estimates to track changes at the local level over time". Areas can be compared on individual measures, with their confidence intervals; this site lists estimates by release for reference only.

Where does this data come from?

CDC PLACES: Local Data for Better Health, 2025 release (data updated 4 Dec 2025), which models Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System responses with Census population and American Community Survey data. Earlier releases (2022, 2023, 2024) are shown for reference. Boundaries and ZIP-to-county relationships are from the US Census Bureau.
