On balance, and by the composite measure, ZIP 30101, one of several in Acworth, Georgia ranks in the top 13.6% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,337th) and the top 9.3% of Georgia (66th).
The profile opens on a set of genuinely favorable readings: park land lies in the top 7.4% nationally, and modeled energy burden resides in the bottom 7.6% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease lands in the bottom 8.7% nationally, and hearing disability registers in the bottom 10.0% nationally. Modeled mobility disability sits in the bottom 11.9% nationally, and stroke rests in the bottom 12.5% nationally. On the other side, modeled air-toxics cancer risk is in the top 4.5% nationally, modeled expected annual loss stands in the top 6.6% nationally, and PFAS in drinking water settles in the top 14.3% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lies at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. PFAS in drinking water is the family of man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 30152, 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 0.55 years of 79.4, 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.
