Overall, ZIP 22191, one of several in Woodbridge, Virginia lands in the top 21% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,590th) and the top 22% of Virginia (196th).
The picture here is genuinely mixed, with readings on both sides: subsidized affordable housing settles in the top 0.5% nationally, and lead in tap water resides at the national minimum. Modeled hearing disability registers in the bottom 3.6% nationally. Distance to an emergency room rests at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Modeled coronary heart disease stands in the bottom 4.1% nationally, and park land lies in the top 9.2% nationally. On the other side, modeled loud transportation noise lands in the top 6.5% nationally, PFOA in drinking water sits in the top 6.9% nationally, and PFOS in drinking water is in the top 7.1% nationally. Crowded housing settles in the top 10.7% nationally.
Set beside the nearby areas, subsidized affordable housing runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. A note on the terms: lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. PFOA in drinking water is one of the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. PFOS in drinking water is a common one of the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. For a healthier nearby comparison, ZIP 22025, just across the boundary, ranks better overall.

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 0.77 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.
