From the measures that could be gathered, Point Marion, Pennsylvania (ZIP 15474) lands in the bottom 12.7% nationally (28,025th) and the bottom 7.1% of Pennsylvania (1,625th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
From the data that is available, the profile takes shape carefully: elder services lies in the top 2.5% nationally, and civic rests in the top 4.5% nationally. Modeled extreme heat resides at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled expected annual loss is in the bottom 11.0% nationally, disaster risk lands in the bottom 12.1% nationally, and tree cover stands in the top 12.5% nationally. On the other side, crowded housing registers in the top 9.0% nationally, modeled tooth loss settles in the top 11.9% nationally, and modeled energy burden sits in the top 12.2% nationally. Recreation lies at the national minimum, shared with about 35% of ZIPs.
For readers new to these terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. 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. Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one overall is ZIP 15327, just across the boundary.

Not placed: Chronic Disease Burden and Risk Behavior — too little of each is measured here to compare reliably. They still count toward the score (together 38% of it); we just will not publish a standing we cannot stand behind.
No data: Mental Health and Disability — not measured in this ZIP, so it is left out of the score entirely rather than estimated.

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 1.09 years of 76.0, 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.
