Conley, Georgia (ZIP 30288), on the composite measure, lands in the bottom 27% nationally (23,464th) and the bottom 37% of Georgia (449th).
What the numbers press hardest on defines much of the story here: modeled transportation noise settles in the top 0.5% nationally, loneliness stands in the top 1.7% nationally, and housing insecurity is in the top 3.3% nationally. Modeled utility shutoff rests in the top 3.4% nationally, housing-cost burden sits in the top 3.6% nationally, and modeled short sleep registers in the top 4.9% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk lands in the top 4.5% nationally, and transportation resides in the top 4.8% nationally. Modeled food insecurity lies in the top 5.2% nationally, and self-care disability settles in the top 6.8% nationally.
Set against the neighboring ZIPs, transportation noise runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 30294, 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 0.75 years of 73.6, 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
