On the composite measure, Granville, Vermont (ZIP 05747) stands in the top 14.7% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,712th) and the top 25% of Vermont (63rd), based on limited data; treat as directional.
Several signals sit on each side of the ledger here: modeled tree cover rests in the top 0.3% nationally, and park land lands in the top 1.7% nationally. Modeled humid heat settles in the bottom 6.8% nationally, and fiber broadband rests in the top 7.4% nationally. Modeled diabetes lands in the bottom 5.3% nationally. Modeled extreme heat settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests in the top 9.7% nationally. Working the other way, unemployment lands in the top 3.1% nationally, walkability settles in the bottom 5.7% nationally, and slow internet speeds rests in the top 8.3% nationally.
Set beside the wider area around it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, 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. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. ZIP 05443, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs 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 1.24 years of 80.2, 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.
