On the composite measure, ZIP 30307, one of several in Atlanta, Georgia stands in the top 1.3% healthiest ZIPs nationally (398th) and the top 1.0% of Georgia (7th).
A profile of give and take, with clear readings each way: modeled mobility disability lies in the bottom 1.5% nationally, and coronary heart disease is in the bottom 2.0% nationally. Subsidized affordable housing registers in the top 2.8% nationally, and modeled hearing disability lies in the bottom 1.9% nationally. Household income is in the top 5.1% nationally, modeled obesity registers in the bottom 5.1% nationally, and modeled stroke lies in the bottom 2.0% nationally. Modeled energy burden is in the bottom 0.9% nationally, and fair or poor health registers in the bottom 1.2% nationally. On the other side, modeled air-toxics cancer risk lies in the top 4.5% nationally.
Set beside the wider area around it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, 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. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. ZIP 30306, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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

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
