Overall, Hamburg, New Jersey (ZIP 07419) places in the top 12.2% healthiest ZIPs nationally (3,906th) and the bottom 41% of New Jersey (346th).
The standout strengths in the data are the natural place to begin: modeled obesity resides in the bottom 9.8% nationally. Modeled extreme heat is at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Outpatient lands in the top 10.5% nationally, modeled cognitive disability stands in the bottom 11.4% nationally, and modeled tooth loss registers in the bottom 9.6% nationally. Home broadband subscription settles in the top 14.1% nationally, and modeled mobility disability sits in the bottom 14.2% nationally. On the other side, modeled industrial-pollution burden lies in the top 4.8% nationally, distance to a Superfund site rests in the bottom 8.3% nationally, and modeled pfas resides in the top 10.2% nationally.
Beside the areas that surround it, industrial-pollution burden runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For readers new to these terms, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. 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. Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one overall is ZIP 07460, just across the boundary.

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 0.77 years of 80.3, 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.
