By the composite measure, Dugspur, Virginia (ZIP 24325) sits in the bottom 36% nationally (20,426th) and the bottom 32% of Virginia (590th).
Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: households without a vehicle lies at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Modeled extreme heat settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled arsenic stands in the bottom 10.6% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise is at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Modeled binge drinking rests in the bottom 9.9% nationally. On the other hand, home broadband subscription sits in the bottom 2.2% nationally, and modeled high cholesterol registers in the top 1.7% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease lands in the top 5.6% nationally, hearing disability resides in the top 8.0% nationally, and high blood pressure lies in the top 10.5% nationally.
In plain language, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. Loud transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to road, rail, and air noise at or above 65 decibels, near conversation volume. ZIP 24105, just across the boundary, ranks healthier 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 1.01 years of 77.7, 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.
