With coverage still partial across the sources, Uledi, Pennsylvania (ZIP 15484) lands in the top 3.4% healthiest ZIPs nationally (1,079th) and the top 2.6% of Pennsylvania (44th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
This area's available measures are set out plainly: poverty registers at the national minimum, home broadband subscription resides at the national maximum, and modeled disaster risk settles in the bottom 4.4% nationally. Modeled tooth loss is in the bottom 0.8% nationally, modeled colon screening sits in the top 3.4% nationally, and housing-cost burden lands in the bottom 6.6% nationally. Floodplain exposure lies in the bottom 6.9% nationally, and homeownership stands in the top 7.7% nationally. Households without a vehicle rests at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Modeled mammography registers in the top 5.5% nationally.
Measured against the nearby ZIPs, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". No nearby ZIP ranks healthier overall than this one.

Nothing measured is holding this score back.
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.
“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

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 1.48 years of 80.4, 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.
