Several signals sit on each side of the ledger here: household income settles in the top 7.5% nationally, and modeled energy burden rests in the bottom 6.2% nationally. Distance to a community health center lands at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Distance to a nursing home settles at the national minimum, shared with about 27% of ZIPs. Distance to an emergency room rests in the bottom 14.6% nationally, modeled self-care disability lands in the bottom 10.1% nationally, and modeled stroke settles in the bottom 12.5% nationally. Working the other way, modeled expected annual loss rests in the top 2.0% nationally, and disaster risk lands in the top 9.8% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility settles at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs.

Set beside the wider area around it, expected annual loss runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, 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. 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. ZIP 37046, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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 0.55 years of 80.9, 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.
