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.

Walkability

210 intersections/sq mi

in the top 2.2% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST94th
US98th
Definition & source ›

The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.

Full methodology ›

Energy-cost burden

1.2%

in the bottom 2.3% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST4th
US2nd
Definition & 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.

Full methodology ›

Natural-disaster risk

in the bottom 5.6% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST10th
US6th
Definition & source ›

This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.

Full methodology ›

Expected annual disaster loss

$0

in the bottom 6.7% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST8th
US7th
Definition & source ›

FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.

Full methodology ›

Outer-floodplain exposure

5.3%

in the top 6.9% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST91st
US93rd
Definition & source ›

The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 0.2%-annual-chance flood band — the “500-year” zone, a lower but real 1-in-500 yearly chance.

Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.

Full methodology ›

Distance to a Superfund site

1.5 mi

in the bottom 9.0% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST13th
US9th
Definition & source ›

The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest Superfund site — an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has listed for cleanup.

Full methodology ›

Floodplain exposure

29.6%

in the top 10.3% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST94th
US90th
Definition & source ›

The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.

Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.

The read

Working only from the data in hand, for ZIP 13290, one of several in Syracuse, New York, health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.

continue reading

On the limited coverage here, the data still marks out some readings: walkability settles in the top 2.2% nationally, and modeled energy burden lies in the bottom 2.3% nationally. Modeled disaster risk resides in the bottom 5.6% nationally, and expected annual loss lands in the bottom 6.7% nationally. Modeled extreme heat registers at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Distance to an emergency room sits in the bottom 22% nationally. On the other side, outer-floodplain exposure rests in the top 6.9% nationally, distance to a Superfund site is in the bottom 9.0% nationally, and floodplain exposure stands in the top 10.3% nationally. Park land settles at the national minimum, shared with about 48% of ZIPs.

Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup.

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 1.54 years of 77.2, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
