Fiber broadband

ST82ndUS97thDefinition & source ›
The share of homes where fiber-optic internet service is available.

ST94thUS93rdDefinition & source ›
The number of services for older adults and people with disabilities inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.
Full methodology ›Grocery access
0.19 per 1,000 residents
in the top 7.9% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST93rdUS92ndDefinition & source ›
The number of full supermarkets inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one. ZipVitals’s food-access signal is derived from these in-ZIP densities — it is not USDA’s food-desert designation, which measures distance to the nearest supermarket. Where a leg is missing, a ZIP reads “not determinable,” never “not a food desert.”
Full methodology ›Short sleep

Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, Hartsville, Tennessee (ZIP 37074) lands in the bottom 23% nationally (24,813th) and the top 41% of Tennessee (251st).
Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: fiber broadband registers in the top 3.0% nationally. Distance to an emergency room sits at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Elder services rests in the top 7.5% nationally, grocery is in the top 7.9% nationally, and outpatient stands in the top 12.5% nationally. Distance to a nursing home settles at the national minimum, shared with about 27% of ZIPs. Unemployment lies in the bottom 14.7% nationally. Against that, modeled short sleep resides in the top 9.5% nationally, cognitive disability lands in the top 12.6% nationally, and expected annual loss registers in the top 17% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 37022, 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 0.78 years of 72.7, 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.
