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

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Zip codes in the northwest quadrant of New Mexico—particularly in areas overlapping with tribal nations and the Navajo Nation—display notably elevated uninsured rates, with several zones exceeding 25–35%, while the Albuquerque metro area and surrounding zip codes generally fall in the 5–15% range. A pronounced contrast exists between the southwestern border region, where pockets of very low (near 0%) and very high (30%+) uninsured rates sit adjacent to one another, and the more uniformly moderate rates across the central Rio Grande corridor. The northeastern corner of the state shows a bright yellow outlier exceeding 50%, likely reflecting a small-population zip code with high statistical variability.
