Full methodology ›The read
Doraville, Georgia (ZIP 30340) ranks in the top 42% healthiest ZIPs nationally (13,346th) and the top 31% of Georgia (218th).
A balanced set of signals defines this area, not any single one: transit registers in the top 6.7% nationally, and subsidized affordable housing lies in the top 10.0% nationally. By contrast, modeled uninsured is in the top 2.3% nationally, and loneliness registers in the top 3.3% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk lies in the top 4.5% nationally, housing-cost burden is in the top 5.5% nationally, and homeownership registers in the bottom 6.1% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity lies in the top 8.2% nationally, modeled food insecurity is in the top 10.3% nationally, and lead in tap water registers in the top 10.4% nationally.
Against its neighbors, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For context, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Subsidized affordable housing is the main federal tax-credit program (HUD) funding affordable rental housing, counted as local units it supports. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 30084, 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 0.80 years of 79.7, 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
