Fatal road crashes

ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Full methodology ›The read
On the composite measure, Crawfordville, Georgia (ZIP 30631) stands in the bottom 18% nationally (26,231st) and the bottom 23% of Georgia (549th).
Several readings make the pressure on this area plain: fatal road crashes lies in the top 0.3% nationally, and modeled diabetes is in the top 1.8% nationally. Modeled stroke registers in the top 2.5% nationally, and high blood pressure lies in the top 2.0% nationally. Modeled self-care disability is in the top 4.7% nationally, mobility disability registers in the top 5.6% nationally, and vision disability lies in the top 7.6% nationally. Modeled fair or poor health is in the top 8.7% nationally. On the encouraging side, modeled binge drinking registers in the bottom 2.4% nationally, and pfas lies in the bottom 3.3% nationally.
Set beside the wider area around it, fatal road crashes runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. ZIP 30642, 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

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 1.71 years of 75.7, 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
