Humid extreme heat
168.2 days/year
in the top 2.3% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST24thUS98thDefinition & 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 ›Fatal road crashes
54.9 per 100,000 residents per year
in the top 3.0% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST97thUS97thDefinition & 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 ›Coronary heart disease

The estimated share of adults who have been told by a health professional that they have coronary heart disease or angina.

The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 0.2%-annual-chance flood band — the “500-year” zone, a lower but real 1-in-500 yearly chance.
Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.
Full methodology ›Mammography

Full methodology ›The read
Judged by its overall standing, O Brien, Florida (ZIP 32071) sits in the bottom 15.0% nationally (27,266th) and the bottom 8.0% of Florida (897th).
An even profile, with readings pulling both ways: distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lands in the top 7.2% nationally. Against that, modeled humid heat rests in the top 2.3% nationally, fatal road crashes settles in the top 3.0% nationally, and modeled coronary heart disease lands in the top 3.6% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure rests in the top 6.5% nationally, and modeled mammography settles in the bottom 7.0% nationally. Modeled high cholesterol lands in the top 5.3% nationally, and stroke rests in the top 7.8% nationally. Modeled hearing disability settles in the top 8.7% nationally. Fiber broadband lands at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs.
Placed beside its immediate neighbors, outer-floodplain exposure runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 32008, 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 0.79 years of 76.3, 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.
