Full methodology ›The read
Barrington, New Hampshire (ZIP 03825) ranks in the top 14.9% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,751st) and the top 44% of New Hampshire (108th).
A balanced set of signals defines this area, not any single one: mental-health providers settles in the top 3.7% nationally, and modeled mammography rests in the top 6.1% nationally. Modeled fair or poor health lands in the bottom 6.6% nationally, and mobility disability settles in the bottom 7.6% nationally. Modeled transportation rests in the bottom 9.9% nationally, diabetes lands in the bottom 6.6% nationally, and food insecurity settles in the bottom 10.4% nationally. Modeled independent living disability rests in the bottom 8.3% nationally. By contrast, distance to a Superfund site lands at the national minimum, and modeled arsenic settles in the top 10.9% nationally.
Against its neighbors, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For context, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 03261, 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 2.11 years of 83.9, 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.
