Air-toxics cancer risk
40 per million
in the top 4.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST90thUS96thDefinition & source ›
The EPA’s modeled estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air toxics, in cases per million people exposed over a lifetime.
Full methodology ›PFAS in drinking water
100%
at the national maximum
Lower is healthier
ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The share of residents served by public water systems where PFAS — man-made “forever chemicals” that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down — were detected in EPA testing.
Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.
Full methodology ›Energy-cost burden
1.4%
in the bottom 3.7% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST4thUS4thDefinition & 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.
Full methodology ›Hearing disability
5.1%
in the bottom 7.2% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST13thUS7thDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults who are deaf or have serious difficulty hearing.
Full methodology ›Coronary heart disease
4.7%
in the bottom 7.0% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST10thUS7thDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults who have been told by a health professional that they have coronary heart disease or angina.
Full methodology ›Median household income
$120,372
in the top 9.5% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST95thUS91stDefinition & source ›
The middle household income in this ZIP — half of households earn more, half earn less — in dollars per year.
Full methodology ›Dental provider access
0.81 per 1,000 residents
in the top 10.6% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST91stUS89thDefinition & source ›
The number of dental offices located inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.
Full methodology ›Home broadband subscription
96.5%
in the top 12.3% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST91stUS88thDefinition & source ›
The share of households with a broadband internet subscription.
Full methodology ›Stroke
2.7%
in the bottom 10.2% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST10thUS10thDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults who have been told by a health professional that they have had a stroke.
Full methodology ›Walkability
80 intersections/sq mi
in the top 13.7% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST94thUS86thDefinition & source ›
The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.
Full methodology ›The read
In its overall standing, ZIP 30082, one of several in Smyrna, Georgia lands in the top 10.1% healthiest ZIPs nationally (3,213th) and the top 7.1% of Georgia (50th).
This area's most favorable readings come through plainly in the numbers: modeled energy burden registers in the bottom 3.7% nationally, hearing disability resides in the bottom 7.2% nationally, and coronary heart disease settles in the bottom 7.0% nationally. Household income is in the top 9.5% nationally, dental providers sits in the top 10.6% nationally, and home broadband subscription lands in the top 12.3% nationally. Modeled mobility disability lies in the bottom 10.9% nationally, and stroke stands in the bottom 10.2% nationally. On the other side, modeled air-toxics cancer risk rests in the top 4.5% nationally, and PFAS in drinking water registers at the national maximum.
Against the wider neighborhood, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. PFAS in drinking water is the family of man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. On the overall standing, ZIP 30080, just across the boundary, ranks healthier.

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 0.68 years of 79.5, 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. How distance is measured
