The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.
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.

The share of residents served by public water systems where PFOA, one of the man-made “forever chemicals,” was detected in EPA testing.
Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

The read
In overall standing, ZIP 33184, one of several in Miami, Florida comes out in the top 29% healthiest ZIPs nationally (9,300th) and the top 39% of Florida (376th).
The profile opens balanced, with readings on either hand: walkability rests in the top 4.8% nationally, outpatient lies in the top 5.1% nationally, and pharmacy sits in the top 5.6% nationally. By contrast, modeled uninsured settles in the top 1.0% nationally, modeled humid heat registers in the top 0.3% nationally, and floodplain exposure stands in the top 1.2% nationally. PFOA in drinking water lands in the top 4.5% nationally, and PFOS in drinking water is in the top 4.8% nationally. Modeled tree cover resides at the national minimum, and vision disability rests in the top 7.6% nationally.

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 0.53 years of 82.1, 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.
