Overall, ZIP 10301, one of several in Staten Island, New York places in the top 23% healthiest ZIPs nationally (7,289th) and the top 50% of New York (864th).
The measures fall on both sides for this area, fairly evenly: subsidized affordable housing sits in the top 2.5% nationally, and walkability lies in the top 5.8% nationally. Park land rests in the top 5.8% nationally, and fatal road crashes resides in the bottom 6.7% nationally. Pulling the other way, households without a vehicle is in the top 2.7% nationally, lead in tap water lands in the top 2.9% nationally, and modeled short sleep stands in the top 4.7% nationally. Homeownership registers in the bottom 7.2% nationally, housing-cost burden settles in the top 7.6% nationally, and crowded housing sits in the top 8.3% nationally.
Beside the areas that surround it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For readers new to these terms, lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Subsidized affordable housing is the main federal tax-credit program (HUD) funding affordable rental housing, counted as local units it supports. Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one overall is ZIP 10306, 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 0.59 years of 77.5, 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
