Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: park land rests in the top 1.9% nationally. Distance to an emergency room sits at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Home broadband subscription registers in the top 7.6% nationally, and modeled obesity lands in the bottom 10.0% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure resides in the bottom 8.0% nationally. On the other hand, modeled uninsured lies in the top 2.8% nationally, and floodplain exposure settles in the top 0.8% nationally. Housing-cost burden stands in the top 6.6% nationally, and PFOA in drinking water is in the top 9.6% nationally. PFOS in drinking water rests in the top 9.8% nationally.

Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, PFOA in drinking water is one of the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. PFOS in drinking water is a common one of the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". ZIP 33185, about 1.6 miles away, ranks healthier overall.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 0.63 years of 81.5, 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.
