On the limited readings gathered so far, Thomasville, Pennsylvania (ZIP 17364) lands in the bottom 50% nationally (16,103rd) and the top 50% of Pennsylvania (867th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
What the available data indicates is laid out plainly: poverty lands in the bottom 14.1% nationally. Set against that, unemployment rests in the top 7.1% nationally. Fiber broadband settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled industrial-pollution burden lands in the top 12.6% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs. Modeled radon settles in the top 18% nationally. Physicians lands at the national minimum, shared with about 38% of ZIPs. Childcare rests at the national minimum, shared with about 42% of ZIPs.

Placed beside its immediate neighbors, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. 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. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 17301, 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 0.96 years of 79.9, 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.
