By its overall health score, ZIP 30117, one of several in Carrollton, Georgia lands in the bottom 36% nationally (20,383rd) and the bottom 49% of Georgia (365th).
Strengths and concerns sit side by side across the measures here: outpatient registers in the top 7.7% nationally, and physicians sits in the top 8.2% nationally. Mental-health providers rests in the top 10.2% nationally. Distance to a community health center is at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Subsidized affordable housing stands in the top 11.3% nationally. On the other hand, modeled loneliness settles in the top 4.7% nationally, homeownership lies in the bottom 11.0% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss resides in the top 11.9% nationally. Modeled uninsured lands in the top 10.0% nationally, and transportation registers in the top 13.3% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Distance to a community health center is a federally funded (HRSA) community health center serving everyone regardless of ability to pay. Subsidized affordable housing is the main federal tax-credit program (HUD) funding affordable rental housing, counted as local units it supports. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 30108, 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 0.44 years of 75.0, 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
