From the measures on hand, the profile can say a few things: housing-cost burden settles at the national minimum, poverty stands at the national minimum, and homeownership is at the national maximum. Home broadband subscription rests at the national maximum, floodplain exposure sits at the national minimum, and modeled expected annual loss registers in the bottom 3.7% nationally. Modeled disaster risk lands in the bottom 3.8% nationally. Unemployment resides at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Against that, modeled transportation noise lies in the top 2.5% nationally, and loud transportation noise settles in the top 3.1% nationally.

Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far lower 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. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels.

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 1.24 years of 79.8, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
