Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: modeled transportation noise resides at the national minimum, home broadband subscription lies at the national maximum, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk settles in the bottom 7.9% nationally. Households without a vehicle stands at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is in the top 9.2% nationally, and modeled tree cover rests in the top 9.4% nationally. Modeled extreme heat sits at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. On the other hand, walkability registers in the bottom 3.9% nationally, and slow internet speeds lands in the top 5.2% nationally. Distance to a nursing home resides in the top 10.4% nationally.

In everyday language, 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. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 12980, 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 1.39 years of 86.9, 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.
