Martinsburg, New York (ZIP 13404), on the composite measure, lands in the top 46% healthiest ZIPs nationally (14,630th) and the bottom 21% of New York (1,372nd), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: modeled disaster risk rests in the bottom 1.0% nationally, poverty sits at the national minimum, and modeled expected annual loss registers in the bottom 3.6% nationally. Unemployment lands at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Modeled extreme heat resides at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled industrial-pollution burden lies in the bottom 10.4% nationally. Working the other way, crowded housing settles in the top 2.6% nationally, and home broadband subscription stands in the bottom 3.3% nationally. Households without a vehicle is in the top 3.7% nationally. Fiber broadband rests at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs.
In everyday language, 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. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 13367, 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 3.51 years of 86.8, 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.
