Judged by its overall standing, ZIP 30083, one of several in Tucker, Georgia sits in the bottom 39% nationally (19,517th) and the top 48% of Georgia (344th).
An even profile, with readings pulling both ways: subsidized affordable housing settles in the top 4.6% nationally, park land lands in the top 7.5% nationally, and modeled hearing disability rests in the bottom 6.4% nationally. Against that, modeled loneliness settles in the top 1.4% nationally, housing-cost burden lands in the top 4.2% nationally, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk rests in the top 4.5% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity settles in the top 4.5% nationally, and utility shutoff lands in the top 4.5% nationally. Modeled transportation rests in the top 6.0% nationally, and food insecurity settles in the top 6.4% nationally.
Placed beside its immediate neighbors, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Subsidized affordable housing is the main federal tax-credit program (HUD) funding affordable rental housing, counted as local units it supports. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 30032, 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 0.58 years of 76.4, 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
