What defines this ZIP
Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.
Grocery access
0.61 per 1,000 residents
in the top 1.0% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST97thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The number of full supermarkets 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. ZipVitals’s food-access signal is derived from these in-ZIP densities — it is not USDA’s food-desert designation, which measures distance to the nearest supermarket. Where a leg is missing, a ZIP reads “not determinable,” never “not a food desert.”

The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.

By its overall health score, Greenville, Maine (ZIP 04441) lands in the top 48% healthiest ZIPs nationally (15,431st) and the top 43% of Maine (177th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The measures split the difference for this area: grocery lands in the top 1.0% nationally, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk registers in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled humid heat sits in the bottom 3.0% nationally, and pharmacy rests in the top 3.2% nationally. Modeled colon screening is in the top 3.4% nationally, and tree cover stands in the top 6.2% nationally. Against that, walkability settles in the bottom 2.3% nationally, modeled coronary heart disease lies in the top 4.3% nationally, and slow internet speeds resides in the top 6.3% nationally. Modeled high cholesterol lands in the top 5.0% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, grocery runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. This ZIP stands out as the strongest overall among its immediate neighbors.

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

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.
