Elder-services access

Higher is healthier
ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The number of services for older adults and people with disabilities inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.

Full methodology ›The read
Bloomingdale, New York (ZIP 12913), overall, ranks in the top 12.7% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,057th) and the top 30% of New York (523rd), based on limited data; treat as directional.
Reading the numbers as a whole, the picture lands somewhere in between: elder services stands in the top 0.8% nationally, modeled industrial-pollution burden rests in the bottom 2.3% nationally, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk registers in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled humid heat resides in the bottom 4.7% nationally, mammography settles in the top 6.4% nationally, and tree cover is in the top 9.5% nationally. Modeled extreme heat sits at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lands in the top 9.9% nationally, and modeled colon screening lies in the top 7.0% nationally. Modeled tooth loss stands in the bottom 9.2% nationally.
Measured against the nearby ZIPs, elder services runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. ZIP 12997, just across the boundary, comes out healthier overall.

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 0.61 years of 80.0, 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
