ST97thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of residents exposed to average road, rail, and aviation noise at or above 55 decibels — a noticeable background presence.

Lower is healthier
ST14thUS6thDefinition & source ›
The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.
Full methodology ›Food insecurity

The estimated share of adults who experienced food insecurity in the past 12 months.

Higher is healthier
ST84thUS91stDefinition & source ›
The number of services for older adults and people with disabilities inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.
Full methodology ›Uninsured (under 65)

Lower is healthier
ST35thUS1stDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults aged 18–64 with no current health-insurance coverage.

Lower is healthier
ST90thUS90thDefinition & source ›
The modeled probability that untreated groundwater in this area — the source private wells draw on — exceeds the federal arsenic limit of 10 micrograms per liter.
A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.
Full methodology ›The read
Southampton, Massachusetts (ZIP 01073), on the composite measure, lands in the top 10.9% healthiest ZIPs nationally (3,471st) and the top 40% of Massachusetts (213th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: modeled obesity resides in the bottom 3.7% nationally, modeled mammography lies in the top 2.5% nationally, and fatal road crashes settles in the bottom 5.7% nationally. Modeled food insecurity stands in the bottom 6.2% nationally. Households without a vehicle is at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Poverty rests in the bottom 8.4% nationally, and household income sits in the top 8.7% nationally. Elder services registers in the top 9.2% nationally. Modeled extreme heat lands at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. On the other hand, modeled transportation noise resides in the top 0.9% nationally.
Set against the neighboring ZIPs, transportation noise runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 01062, about 0.5 miles away.

How these were chosen: only ZIPs with a published Score appear — a nearby ZIP with too little data to score won’t. Nearby means closest by distance between ZIP boundaries, which can cross state lines. A similar health profile is a close match across the nine Score domains, not similar demographics. Distances are measured between ZIP boundaries — ZIPs that touch share a border. How distance is measured

About the ± — it’s this estimate’s give-or-take (statisticians call it the standard error). The true life expectancy for this ZIP most likely falls within 1.91 years of 82.1, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.

How these lists were built: they draw only from ZIPs that have a published Score, so ZIPs with too little data to score are not listed. Distance-based lists use distance between ZIP boundaries with no state filter, so an out-of-state ZIP can appear. Statistically similar means a close match across the nine Score domains, not a demographic match: the measure is the cosine similarity between two ZIPs’ domain scores, taken over the domains both ZIPs have data for and only where that overlap covers at least six of the nine — and where no ZIP clears that minimum-overlap floor, that list is left out rather than filled with a weak match. How distance is measured
