On balance, and by the composite measure, Troutville, Virginia (ZIP 24175) ranks in the top 25% healthiest ZIPs nationally (7,877th) and the top 26% of Virginia (229th).
A number of signals point in a favorable direction for this area: park land stands in the top 4.5% nationally, and modeled tree cover settles in the top 10.6% nationally. Poverty lies in the bottom 12.0% nationally, and modeled food insecurity resides in the bottom 12.2% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity lands in the bottom 12.3% nationally, transportation registers in the bottom 12.4% nationally, and utility shutoff sits in the bottom 13.5% nationally. Modeled arsenic rests in the bottom 16% nationally, and energy burden is in the bottom 17% nationally. Working the other way, modeled pfas stands in the top 19% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. 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. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 24083, just across the boundary.

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 0.59 years of 80.1, 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.
