What defines this ZIP
Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.
Walkability
0 intersections/sq mi
at the national minimum
Higher is healthier
ST1stUS1stDefinition & source ›
The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.
Full methodology ›Natural-disaster risk
in the bottom 1.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST5thUS1stDefinition & source ›
This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.
Full methodology ›Expected annual disaster loss
$0
in the bottom 2.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST5thUS3rdDefinition & source ›
FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.
Full methodology ›Floodplain exposure
0.00%
at the national minimum
Lower is healthier
ST1stUS1stDefinition & source ›
The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.
Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.
Full methodology ›Tree cover
0.00%
at the national minimum
Higher is healthier
ST1stUS1stDefinition & source ›
The share of this ZIP’s land area covered by forest.
Full methodology ›Humid extreme heat
18.6 days/year
in the bottom 15% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST4thUS15thDefinition & source ›
The average number of days per year when modeled heat stress — temperature, humidity, sun, and wind combined — reaches levels hard on the body outdoors.
Full methodology ›The read
From the measures that could be gathered, for ZIP 16699, one of several in Cresson, Pennsylvania, health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
So far as the data reaches, a few readings can be drawn: modeled disaster risk lands in the bottom 1.5% nationally, and expected annual loss stands in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Floodplain exposure registers at the national minimum. Modeled extreme heat settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled humid heat sits in the bottom 15% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure lies at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests in the top 21% nationally. By contrast, walkability resides at the national minimum, and modeled tree cover is at the national minimum. Distance to a nursing home lands in the top 17% nationally.
Beside the areas that surround it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For readers new to these terms, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. 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.

|---|---|---|---|
| Life expectancy at birth | 77.7 yr ± 0.99 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 79.2 yr (76.0–82.0) n=1,730 |
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 0.99 years of 77.7, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
