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

ST1st
US1st
Definition & source ›

The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.

Full methodology ›

Energy-cost burden

1.1%

in the bottom 1.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST69th
US1st
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.

Tree cover

0.00%

at the national minimum

Higher is healthier

ST1st
US1st
Definition & source ›

The share of this ZIP’s land area covered by forest.

Full methodology ›

Expected annual disaster loss

$0

in the bottom 6.1% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST16th
US6th
Definition & 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

39.4%

in the top 6.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST89th
US94th
Definition & 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 ›

Natural-disaster risk

in the bottom 7.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST9th
US7th
Definition & 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 ›

Distance to a Superfund site

1.6 mi

in the bottom 9.3% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST25th
US9th
Definition & source ›

The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest Superfund site — an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has listed for cleanup.

The read

With only some of the sources reporting, for ZIP 20204, one of several in Washington, District of Columbia, health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.

This area's available measures are set out plainly: modeled energy burden is in the bottom 1.4% nationally, expected annual loss sits in the bottom 6.1% nationally, and disaster risk lands in the bottom 7.4% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure lies at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Distance to a community health center stands in the bottom 28% nationally. Against that, walkability rests at the national minimum, and modeled tree cover registers at the national minimum. Floodplain exposure resides in the top 6.4% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site settles in the bottom 9.3% nationally. Park land is at the national minimum, shared with about 48% of ZIPs.

Against the wider neighborhood, walkability runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, 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. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup.

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 1.97 years of 80.1, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
