The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.

Full methodology ›The read
Millville, New Jersey (ZIP 08332), by its overall standing, sits in the bottom 43% nationally (18,231st) and the bottom 7.8% of New Jersey (538th).
The measures fall on both sides of the ledger for this area: subsidized affordable housing sits in the top 7.3% nationally. Distance to a community health center settles at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Modeled arsenic registers in the bottom 11.7% nationally, and transit stands in the top 12.7% nationally. Distance to a nursing home lands at the national minimum, shared with about 27% of ZIPs. Set against that, distance to a Superfund site is at the national minimum, and modeled nitrate resides in the top 3.4% nationally. Modeled pfas rests in the top 7.7% nationally, and short sleep lies in the top 8.3% nationally. Households without a vehicle sits in the top 8.1% nationally.
Held up against its neighbors, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined in plain terms, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. 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. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 08270, 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 0.68 years of 74.4, 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
