Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, Campton, New Hampshire (ZIP 03223) lands in the top 16% healthiest ZIPs nationally (5,065th) and the bottom 49% of New Hampshire (123rd).
The profile opens on a set of genuinely favorable readings: modeled tree cover lands in the top 3.1% nationally, and industrial-pollution burden registers in the bottom 3.4% nationally. Park land sits in the top 5.2% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests in the top 6.6% nationally. Households without a vehicle is at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Modeled obesity stands in the bottom 10.0% nationally, and homeownership settles in the top 9.4% nationally. Modeled extreme heat lies at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Household income resides in the top 10.1% nationally, and modeled fair or poor health lands in the bottom 11.1% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 03227, just across the boundary.

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 1.19 years of 80.1, 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.
