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.

PFOA in drinking water

98.8%

in the top 4.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST92nd
US96th
Definition & source ›

The share of residents served by public water systems where PFOA, one of the man-made “forever chemicals,” was detected in EPA testing.

Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

in the bottom 4.5% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST10th
US4th
Definition & source ›

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

A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Where the data is kindest to this area, a few readings lead the way: fatal road crashes lands in the bottom 4.5% nationally, and modeled high blood pressure stands in the bottom 4.9% nationally. Walkability registers in the top 7.7% nationally, and modeled obesity settles in the bottom 10.2% nationally. Fiber broadband sits in the top 8.7% nationally. On the other hand, PFOA in drinking water lies in the top 4.4% nationally, housing-cost burden rests in the top 5.7% nationally, and modeled transportation noise resides in the top 6.4% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise is in the top 7.6% nationally, and crowded housing lands in the top 9.0% nationally.

Next to the surrounding area, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For anyone unfamiliar, PFOA in drinking water is one of the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. Loud transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to road, rail, and air noise at or above 65 decibels, near conversation volume.

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 0.71 years of 83.4, 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.
