Education & opportunity profile
Selected county compared with Pennsylvania. Bars show the county value; the statewide value is listed under each indicator.

Explore educational attainment, household economics, poverty, broadband access, school enrollment and labor-force context across all 67 Pennsylvania counties. Public county statistics are kept separate from NYA student results so community context never becomes a label for an individual child.
Choose any Pennsylvania county. The dashboard compares public aggregate indicators with Pennsylvania and ranks the county descriptively among counties with available data. Rankings are not school-quality scores and should never be interpreted as measures of a child's ability.

NYA's PSSA preparation pathway can be viewed beside official statewide proficiency results. County socioeconomic indicators on this page do not predict PSSA performance and are not used to score students.

Source: Pennsylvania Department of Education 2025 PSSA statewide results. County-level PSSA performance requires aggregation of district/school reporting and is intentionally kept separate from the socioeconomic indicators above.
Educational attainment and school enrollment are drawn from public American Community Survey tables. They describe the adult/community context, not the academic ability of NYA students.
Median household income, poverty and employment are aggregate population measures. NYA does not use them to classify a child or change an exam score.
Broadband-subscription measures provide community-level digital-access context. They can inform outreach and resource planning without collecting a student's household information.
Use the official Census profile for source tables or the Pennsylvania Department of Education reporting page for district and school assessment data. A future NYA district layer can aggregate public PSSA files into county-level academic trends while preserving the separation between public context and private student learning.
