What defines this ZIP

Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.

Energy-cost burden

0.56%

in the bottom 0.09% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST1st
US1st
Definition & source ›

The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.

A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.

Floodplain exposure

0.00%

at the national minimum

Lower is healthier

ST1st
US1st
Definition & source ›

The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.

Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.

Full methodology ›

Walkability

170 intersections/sq mi

in the top 4.1% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST89th
US96th
Definition & source ›

The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.

Full methodology ›

Tree cover

at the national minimum

Higher is healthier

ST1st
US1st
Definition & source ›

The share of this ZIP’s land area covered by forest.

Expected annual disaster loss

$0

in the bottom 9.3% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST11th
US9th
Definition & source ›

FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.

The read

From the measures on hand, the profile can say a few things: modeled energy burden is in the bottom 0.09% nationally, floodplain exposure rests at the national minimum, and walkability sits in the top 4.1% nationally. Modeled expected annual loss registers in the bottom 9.3% nationally, modeled disaster risk lands in the bottom 13.0% nationally, and distance to an emergency room resides in the bottom 17% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure lies at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Against that, modeled tree cover settles at the national minimum, and distance to a Superfund site stands in the bottom 14.7% nationally. Park land is at the national minimum, shared with about 48% of ZIPs.

Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup.

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 2.81 years of 78.6, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
