With only part of the picture in hand, Centerville, Pennsylvania (ZIP 16404) lands in the bottom 22% nationally (25,061st) and the bottom 13.2% of Pennsylvania (1,518th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
With coverage still limited, the data points to what it can here: modeled extreme heat settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled loud transportation noise stands at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Modeled disaster risk is in the bottom 15% nationally. Working the other way, modeled energy burden rests in the top 10.1% nationally, and home broadband subscription sits in the bottom 13.5% nationally. Walkability registers in the bottom 14.2% nationally, and households without a vehicle lands in the top 15% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden resides in the top 17% nationally, and crowded housing lies in the top 17% nationally. Modeled tooth loss settles in the top 15% nationally.
In plain 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. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. ZIP 16354, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.
What’s driving this score
Nine domains make up the ZipVitals Score — here is how this ZIP does on each, and how much each one counts.

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 0.83 years of 78.3, 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.
