The read
Working only from the data in hand, for Squirrel Island, Maine (ZIP 04570), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
The measures that are covered come first, caveats noted: housing-cost burden stands at the national minimum, and modeled transportation noise settles at the national minimum. Poverty lies at the national minimum, and homeownership resides at the national maximum. Home broadband subscription lands at the national maximum, modeled humid heat registers in the bottom 3.7% nationally, and fiber broadband sits in the top 4.6% nationally. Lead in tap water rests at the national minimum, and modeled expected annual loss is in the bottom 4.7% nationally. By contrast, households without a vehicle stands at the national maximum.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, households without a vehicle runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels.
