Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, Lilly, Georgia (ZIP 31051) lands in the bottom 9.6% nationally (29,015th) and the bottom 9.3% of Georgia (645th).
The burdens that read clearest in the data come first: modeled loud transportation noise sits in the top 0.7% nationally, and transportation noise rests in the top 0.8% nationally. Modeled loneliness is in the top 1.0% nationally, and home broadband subscription stands in the bottom 1.2% nationally. Modeled short sleep settles in the top 2.7% nationally, poverty lies in the top 2.5% nationally, and modeled housing insecurity resides in the top 3.1% nationally. Modeled independent living disability lands in the top 4.7% nationally. Better still, modeled expected annual loss registers in the bottom 1.5% nationally, and arsenic sits in the bottom 3.1% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, loud transportation noise runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. 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. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 31092, 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 2.02 years of 76.9, 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.
