The read

ZIP 33511, one of several in Brandon, Florida, on the composite measure, lands in the top 22% healthiest ZIPs nationally (7,189th) and the top 29% of Florida (282nd).

continue reading

The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: physicians stands in the top 1.6% nationally, dental providers is in the top 2.9% nationally, and outpatient rests in the top 3.0% nationally. Subsidized affordable housing sits in the top 3.5% nationally. Distance to an emergency room registers at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Mental-health providers lands in the top 7.2% nationally, and pharmacy resides in the top 8.0% nationally. Working the other way, modeled humid heat lies in the top 1.0% nationally, and expected annual loss settles in the top 3.7% nationally. PFOS in drinking water stands in the top 8.8% nationally.

Set against the neighboring ZIPs, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. 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. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 33596, just across the boundary.

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 0.52 years of 78.6, 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.
