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.

By the composite health measure, Pierson, Florida (ZIP 32180) ranks in the bottom 32% nationally (21,816th) and the bottom 26% of Florida (725th).
Several measures weigh most on this area's profile, and they come first: modeled uninsured lies in the top 3.9% nationally, and humid heat lands in the top 2.0% nationally. Crowded housing sits in the top 2.1% nationally, and fatal road crashes is in the top 5.3% nationally. Households without a vehicle settles in the top 11.2% nationally, floodplain exposure resides in the top 11.2% nationally, and slow internet speeds registers in the top 14.1% nationally. On the better side, modeled radon rests in the bottom 2.5% nationally. Distance to a community health center stands at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Fiber broadband lies in the top 12.4% nationally.
To spell things out, radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". Close by, ZIP 32110, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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 1.30 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.
