On balance, and by the composite measure, North Granby, Connecticut (ZIP 06060) ranks in the top 5.5% healthiest ZIPs nationally (1,753rd) and the top 27% of Connecticut (76th).
Strengths and concerns sit side by side across the measures here: modeled expected annual loss sits at the national minimum, and poverty rests at the national minimum. Homeownership is at the national maximum, and modeled transportation stands in the bottom 3.8% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity settles in the bottom 4.4% nationally, mammography lies in the top 2.6% nationally, and food insecurity resides in the bottom 5.0% nationally. Modeled colon screening lands in the top 2.9% nationally, and fair or poor health registers in the bottom 2.7% nationally. On the other hand, modeled pfas sits in the top 2.1% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 06090, just across the boundary. The area additionally sits on the healthier half of the national range on at least seven of the ten good-life measures tracked here, from quiet and green space to nearby care, a combination reached by about one in twenty-five US ZIP codes.

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 1.33 years of 80.8, 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. How distance is measured
