Most undersupplied ZIP codes
| ZIP | Children under 5 | Licensed slots | Children per slot | Facilities |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 19960 | 472 | 145 | 3.3 | 8 |
Only ZIP codes with at least five licensed facilities that report capacity are
ranked, so this reflects genuine supply pressure — not areas where our roster is simply thin. Some
tight-supply ZIPs may be excluded for that reason; the full picture is in the API.
