Full methodology ›The read
Hyannis Port, Massachusetts (ZIP 02647), by its composite score, sits in the top 30% healthiest ZIPs nationally (9,688th) and the bottom 22% of Massachusetts (413th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The data opens on a genuinely even set of readings: poverty lands at the national minimum, and home broadband subscription stands at the national maximum. Modeled colon screening registers in the top 1.5% nationally, and lead in tap water settles at the national minimum. Modeled industrial-pollution burden sits in the bottom 6.1% nationally, and mammography lies in the top 4.0% nationally. Unemployment rests at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. On the other side, housing-cost burden resides in the top 1.7% nationally, modeled tree cover is at the national minimum, and PFAS in drinking water lands at the national maximum.
Next to the surrounding area, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For anyone unfamiliar, lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. PFAS in drinking water is the family of man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby.

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 2.21 years of 81.5, 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
