ST92ndUS84thDefinition & 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.

Lower is healthier
ST94thUS77thDefinition & 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.
Full methodology ›The read
Judged by its overall standing, Constantia, New York (ZIP 13044) sits in the top 47% healthiest ZIPs nationally (15,224th) and the bottom 20% of New York (1,391st).
A few measures carry most of this area's good news: modeled extreme heat settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled loud transportation noise lands at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Homeownership rests in the top 11.0% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility settles in the top 12.9% nationally. Modeled disaster risk lands in the bottom 13.2% nationally, and tree cover rests in the top 14.3% nationally. Crowded housing settles at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Set against that, unemployment lands in the top 12.7% nationally, and distance to an emergency room rests in the top 13.9% nationally. Modeled short sleep settles in the top 14.0% nationally.
Put plainly, 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. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 13167, 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 2.13 years of 82.6, 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.
