The measures split the difference for this area: recreation lands in the top 1.3% nationally, and dental providers registers in the top 1.4% nationally. Outpatient sits in the top 1.6% nationally, and modeled coronary heart disease rests in the bottom 1.6% nationally. Modeled hearing disability is in the bottom 1.5% nationally, mobility disability stands in the bottom 1.5% nationally, and stroke settles in the bottom 1.7% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure lies in the bottom 2.5% nationally. Against that, modeled loud transportation noise resides in the top 1.4% nationally, and air-toxics cancer risk lands in the top 2.3% nationally.

Compared with the ZIPs it borders, slow internet speeds 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. Loud transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to road, rail, and air noise at or above 65 decibels, near conversation volume. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 30327, just across the boundary.

Findings that name this ZIP

One of our published findings lists this ZIP code. Each finding compares one published measure against a stated benchmark, and names only the ZIP codes whose estimates are reliable enough to rank. See all surprising findings.

  • Heavy environment, light chronic burden

    Where the environment and chronic illness point in opposite directions

    Environmental-hazard standing 5.3 (bottom 10%); chronic-disease standing 98.2 (top 10%) — 93 points apart, heavier on the environment than it is on chronic illness.

    Ranked #18,034 of the 18,187 ZIP codes this finding names, ordered by the gap from cleanest environment to heaviest chronic burden, highest first.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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.
