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.

The read

Judged by its overall standing, ZIP 10119, one of several in New York, New York sits in the top 8.8% healthiest ZIPs nationally (2,809th) and the top 21% of New York (371st), based on limited data; treat as directional.

continue reading

An even profile, with readings pulling both ways: modeled energy burden stands in the bottom 0.2% nationally, modeled obesity resides in the bottom 4.4% nationally, and floodplain exposure sits at the national minimum. Modeled hearing disability stands in the bottom 3.2% nationally, tooth loss resides in the bottom 1.6% nationally, and mammography sits in the top 5.8% nationally. Against that, modeled binge drinking stands in the top 1.2% nationally, and transportation noise resides in the top 1.0% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise sits in the top 4.5% nationally, and tree cover stands at the national minimum.

Placed beside its immediate neighbors, walkability runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 10001, just across the boundary.

“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 3.36 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.
