Full methodology ›The read
Given the gaps in coverage here, Coral, Pennsylvania (ZIP 15731) lands in the top 31% healthiest ZIPs nationally (10,060th) and the top 28% of Pennsylvania (494th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The profile opens on partial but real readings: modeled expected annual loss registers in the bottom 2.5% nationally, modeled disaster risk stands in the bottom 4.3% nationally, and walkability lands in the top 7.3% nationally. Modeled mammography is in the top 5.5% nationally. Modeled extreme heat resides at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Crowded housing rests at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Against that, home broadband subscription lies in the bottom 0.8% nationally, and modeled loud transportation noise sits in the top 8.0% nationally. Floodplain exposure settles in the top 9.6% nationally, and households without a vehicle registers in the top 10.9% nationally.
Held up against its neighbors, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined in plain 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. Loud transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to road, rail, and air noise at or above 65 decibels, near conversation volume. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 15754, about 2.9 miles away.

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 2.05 years of 81.2, 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.
