In its overall standing, Woodlawn, Tennessee (ZIP 37191) lands in the bottom 48% nationally (16,599th) and the top 17% of Tennessee (103rd).
This area's measures are easy to read as a mixed set: modeled arsenic stands in the bottom 3.9% nationally, fiber broadband rests in the top 10.1% nationally, and modeled stroke registers in the bottom 15.0% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease resides in the bottom 17% nationally, distance to a Superfund site settles in the top 20% nationally, and unemployment is in the bottom 21% nationally. Set against that, modeled short sleep sits in the top 9.5% nationally, and pfas lands in the top 13.7% nationally. Crowded housing lies in the top 17% nationally. Physicians stands at the national minimum, shared with about 38% of ZIPs.
Against the wider neighborhood, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put simply, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. On the overall standing, ZIP 37079, just across the boundary, ranks healthier.

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 1.14 years of 75.8, 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.
