The read

Overall, Eagle Bay, New York (ZIP 13331) places in the top 16% healthiest ZIPs nationally (5,176th) and the top 37% of New York (643rd), based on limited data; treat as directional.

continue reading

The measures fall on both sides for this area, fairly evenly: modeled loneliness sits in the bottom 1.1% nationally, and arsenic lies in the bottom 1.3% nationally. Modeled colon screening rests in the top 0.6% nationally, and poverty resides at the national minimum. Home broadband subscription is at the national maximum, modeled humid heat lands in the bottom 3.5% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden stands in the bottom 5.5% nationally. Pulling the other way, walkability registers in the bottom 2.7% nationally, distance to a nursing home settles in the top 4.0% nationally, and modeled high cholesterol sits in the top 3.3% nationally.

For readers new to these terms, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one overall is ZIP 12847, just across the boundary.

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 1.12 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.
