Full methodology ›The read
From what the available data documents, Verona, Kentucky (ZIP 41092) lands in the bottom 18% nationally (26,144th) and the top 30% of Kentucky (226th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
On the partial data in hand, the profile shows what it can: homeownership stands in the top 13.2% nationally, fiber broadband lands in the top 16% nationally, and modeled tree cover is in the top 20% nationally. Housing-cost burden resides in the bottom 22% nationally. Set against that, modeled short sleep rests in the top 11.6% nationally, and fatal road crashes lies in the top 14.6% nationally. Modeled mammography sits in the bottom 14.1% nationally, and pfas settles in the top 16% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise registers in the top 20% nationally. Childcare stands at the national minimum, shared with about 42% of ZIPs.
In plain terms, 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. Loud transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to road, rail, and air noise at or above 65 decibels, near conversation volume. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 41030, just across the boundary.
What’s driving this score

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 1.26 years of 77.1, 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.
