Median household income

Higher is healthier

ST97th
US99th
Definition & source ›

The middle household income in this ZIP — half of households earn more, half earn less — in dollars per year.

Full methodology ›

PFAS in drinking water

64.7%

in the top 6.2% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST98th
US94th
Definition & source ›

The modeled probability that PFAS “forever chemicals” would be detected in untreated groundwater in this area, the source private wells draw on.

A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.

Homeownership rate

96.6%

in the top 6.8% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST91st
US93rd
Definition & source ›

The share of occupied homes that are owned, rather than rented, by the people living in them.

Full methodology ›

Energy-cost burden

1.5%

in the bottom 5.2% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST8th
US5th
Definition & source ›

The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.

A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.

Full methodology ›

Home broadband subscription

97.4%

in the top 8.9% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST88th
US91st
Definition & source ›

The share of households with a broadband internet subscription.

in the bottom 9.8% nationally

Lower is healthier

US10th
Definition & source ›

The lead level at the 90th percentile of tap-water samples reported by the public water systems serving this ZIP, in parts per billion — the EPA requires action above 15 ppb.

Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

Full methodology ›

Hearing disability

in the bottom 9.0% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST13th

The read

continue reading

Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: household income resides in the top 1.2% nationally, and homeownership lands in the top 6.8% nationally. Modeled energy burden registers in the bottom 5.2% nationally, and home broadband subscription sits in the top 8.9% nationally. Lead in tap water rests in the bottom 9.8% nationally, modeled hearing disability is in the bottom 9.0% nationally, and modeled coronary heart disease stands in the bottom 8.7% nationally. Park land settles in the top 10.9% nationally, and modeled independent living disability lies in the bottom 9.2% nationally. Against that, modeled pfas resides in the top 6.2% nationally.

Compared with the ZIPs it borders, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 20124, just across the boundary.

    The ZIP codes that outlive their incomes

    Estimated life expectancy is 80.0 ± 1.9 years. A median household income of $195,467 predicts 82.7 years — 2.7 years below.

    Ranked #3,743 of the 5,842 ZIP codes this finding names, ordered by years above what income predicts, highest first.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 80.0, 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.
