Lakeville, Connecticut (ZIP 06039), in overall standing, comes out in the top 3.5% healthiest ZIPs nationally (1,114th) and the top 14.5% of Connecticut (40th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
A balanced showing across the data, with a few readings each side: modeled expected annual loss settles at the national minimum, civic lands in the top 2.7% nationally, and home broadband subscription rests at the national maximum. Modeled food insecurity settles in the bottom 3.3% nationally, modeled housing insecurity lands in the bottom 3.6% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests in the top 4.4% nationally. Modeled transportation settles in the bottom 4.4% nationally, and cognitive disability lands in the bottom 2.6% nationally. Modeled obesity rests in the bottom 6.7% nationally, and colon screening settles in the top 2.7% nationally.
Defined simply, for reference, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. 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. Locally, no neighbor ranks healthier overall than this ZIP.

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 1.55 years of 79.5, 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.
