% of Population without Health Insurance, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Delaware

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Southern Delaware, particularly in the Sussex County area, exhibits the highest rates of uninsured residents, with several zip codes in the 15–20%+ range likely corresponding to agricultural communities around Georgetown and Bridgeville where immigrant labor populations are concentrated. Northern New Castle County zip codes, especially those in the Wilmington suburbs and along the I-95 corridor, generally maintain uninsured rates below 5%, reflecting stronger employer-based coverage and higher household incomes. A notable cluster of light gray (very low or missing data) zip codes in central Kent County creates a visible gap, while a few urban zip codes in Wilmington proper show elevated rates compared to their suburban neighbors.
