Full methodology ›The read
Judged by its overall standing, Moorestown, New Jersey (ZIP 08057) sits in the top 2.6% healthiest ZIPs nationally (810th) and the top 26% of New Jersey (149th).
A balanced showing across the data, with a few readings each side: household income lands in the top 3.0% nationally, modeled loneliness rests in the bottom 1.2% nationally, and modeled food insecurity settles in the bottom 3.1% nationally. Modeled cognitive disability lands in the bottom 1.8% nationally, modeled housing insecurity rests in the bottom 4.0% nationally, and dental providers settles in the top 4.4% nationally. Modeled utility shutoff lands in the bottom 4.4% nationally, and transportation rests in the bottom 4.4% nationally. Physicians settles in the top 4.4% nationally. On the other hand, PFOA in drinking water lands at the national maximum.
Placed beside its immediate neighbors, outer-floodplain exposure runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, PFOA in drinking water is one of the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 08003, about 1.2 miles away. Across other measures, the ZIP also 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 0.95 years of 81.2, 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. How distance is measured
