Full methodology ›The read
Pine Lake, Georgia (ZIP 30072), in overall standing, comes out in the top 47% healthiest ZIPs nationally (15,140th) and the top 35% of Georgia (250th).
An even profile, with readings pulling both ways: walkability lands in the top 0.5% nationally, modeled disaster risk rests in the bottom 2.8% nationally, and park land settles in the top 8.8% nationally. Home broadband subscription lands in the top 10.7% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise rests at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Modeled expected annual loss settles in the bottom 13.7% nationally. Crowded housing lands at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Against that, modeled air-toxics cancer risk rests in the top 4.5% nationally, and lead in tap water settles in the top 8.7% nationally. Modeled loneliness lands in the top 12.4% nationally.
Set within its surrounding area, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, for reference, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 30088, about 0.5 miles away.

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 1.16 years of 74.5, 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.
