ST3rdUS3rdDefinition & 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.

ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The share of residents served by public water systems where PFAS — man-made “forever chemicals” that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down — were 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 modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.
A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.

On balance, and by the composite measure, Arrington, Tennessee (ZIP 37014) ranks in the top 18% healthiest ZIPs nationally (5,772nd) and the top 4.1% of Tennessee (25th).
A number of signals point in a favorable direction for this area: home broadband subscription stands at the national maximum, and modeled arsenic settles in the bottom 2.9% nationally. Homeownership lies in the top 5.5% nationally. Unemployment resides at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Modeled energy burden lands in the bottom 10.6% nationally, and poverty registers in the bottom 13.7% nationally. Crowded housing sits at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Modeled self-care disability rests in the bottom 10.1% nationally, and independent living disability is in the bottom 12.2% nationally. Working the other way, PFAS in drinking water stands at the national maximum.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. PFAS in drinking water is the family of man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 37046, just across the boundary.

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 1.41 years of 81.1, 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.
