Full methodology ›The read
On the limited readings gathered so far, for Oak Hill, Alabama (ZIP 36766), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
On the measures in hand, a few readings come through: housing-cost burden registers at the national minimum, poverty is at the national minimum, and homeownership lies at the national maximum. Home broadband subscription registers at the national maximum, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is in the top 3.4% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss lies in the bottom 5.5% nationally. Modeled disaster risk registers in the bottom 6.5% nationally. Unemployment is at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Against that, walkability lies in the bottom 4.9% nationally, and modeled humid heat registers in the top 7.4% nationally.
Put plainly, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake.

| Life expectancy at birth | 73.7 yr ± 2.29 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 74.7 yr (72.1–78.3) n=599 |
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 2.29 years of 73.7, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
