Arsenic in groundwater

in the bottom 1.4% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST6thUS1stDefinition & source ›
The modeled probability that untreated groundwater in this area — the source private wells draw on — exceeds the federal arsenic limit of 10 micrograms per liter.
A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.

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 ›The read
By the composite health measure, Newberry, Florida (ZIP 32669) ranks in the top 20% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,524th) and the top 26% of Florida (250th).
The signals balance out across the profile, strengths against concerns: modeled arsenic stands in the bottom 1.4% nationally, and grocery lies in the top 15.0% nationally. Subsidized affordable housing lands in the top 16% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure sits at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Home broadband subscription is in the top 18% nationally, modeled fair or poor health settles in the bottom 20% nationally, and modeled independent living disability resides in the bottom 20% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden registers in the bottom 21% nationally, and mobility disability rests in the bottom 22% nationally. Set against that, modeled humid heat stands in the top 2.3% nationally.
Read against the ZIPs closest to it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Close by, ZIP 32605, 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

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.
