Poverty rate
48.1%
in the top 1.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST99thUS98thDefinition & source ›
The share of residents whose income is below the federal poverty line, from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.
Full methodology ›Natural-disaster risk
in the bottom 5.2% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST3rdUS5thDefinition & source ›
This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.
Full methodology ›Humid extreme heat
140.9 days/year
in the top 7.1% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST84thUS93rdDefinition & source ›
The average number of days per year when modeled heat stress — temperature, humidity, sun, and wind combined — reaches levels hard on the body outdoors.
Full methodology ›Expected annual disaster loss
$0
in the bottom 7.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST5thUS8thDefinition & source ›
FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.
Full methodology ›Walkability
88 intersections/sq mi
in the top 12.4% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST95thUS88thDefinition & source ›
The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.
Full methodology ›Energy-cost burden
4.9%
in the top 10.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST95thUS89thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.
A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.
Full methodology ›Dry extreme heat
26.5 days/year
in the top 18% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST97thUS82ndDefinition & source ›
The average number of days per year with a modeled daily high of at least 95 °F.
Full methodology ›The read
With only part of the picture in hand, for ZIP 31062, one of several in Milledgeville, Georgia, health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
With coverage still limited, the data points to what it can here: modeled disaster risk sits in the bottom 5.2% nationally, modeled expected annual loss registers in the bottom 7.8% nationally, and walkability lands in the top 12.4% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site resides in the top 28% nationally. Working the other way, poverty lies in the top 1.8% nationally, and modeled humid heat settles in the top 7.1% nationally. Modeled energy burden stands in the top 10.8% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure is in the top 14.5% nationally. Modeled extreme heat rests in the top 18% nationally. Park land sits at the national minimum, shared with about 48% of ZIPs.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup.

| Life expectancy at birth | 72.2 yr ± 1.97 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 76.1 yr (73.3–79.7) n=668 |
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 1.97 years of 72.2, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
