Methodology note: This regional view shows ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) within a 40-mile driving distance of Georgetown, Delaware, crossing into Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Map shading uses the greater of licensed providers or employment for each ZIP. Employment estimates are allocated from BLS state-level data using Census LODES workplace shares. Licensed provider counts come from Delaware's DELPROS database: Delaware ZCTAs show all licensed providers; nearby-state ZCTAs show only DE-licensed providers with practice addresses in that ZIP. A dash (—) means no meaningful data is available for that metric. Population data from Census ACS 5-Year estimates.

Funded by the Rural Health Transformation (RHT) initiative through CMS.

About licensing data in this view

Delaware ZCTAs show the full count of actively licensed healthcare providers from DELPROS (Delaware Division of Professional Regulation). This includes all license types mapped to healthcare occupations.

Out-of-state ZCTAs (MD, PA, NJ) show only providers who hold an active Delaware license and have a practice address (License Parcel) in that ZIP code. This captures cross-border practitioners but is not a complete count of all providers in those areas — providers licensed only in their home state are not included.

Reading the table:

  • — (dash) = No providers or employment data found for this ZIP. For licensed providers, this means no DE-licensed provider has a practice address in that ZIP. For employment, this means no LODES workplace data exists for that ZIP.

Employment data covers all healthcare workers regardless of licensing state, allocated from BLS state totals using Census LODES workplace shares.
