The number of pharmacies located inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Full methodology ›The read
On the limited readings gathered so far, Olive Hill, Kentucky (ZIP 41164) lands in the bottom 3.9% nationally (30,819th) and the bottom 36% of Kentucky (478th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
What the available data indicates is laid out plainly: modeled tree cover lies in the top 7.3% nationally, pharmacy registers in the top 7.8% nationally, and lead in tap water is in the bottom 10.1% nationally. Set against that, modeled tooth loss lies in the top 4.8% nationally, mammography registers in the bottom 13.2% nationally, and energy burden is in the top 13.0% nationally. Modeled short sleep lies in the top 17% nationally, and home broadband subscription registers in the bottom 21% nationally. Fatal road crashes is in the top 21% nationally, and poverty lies in the top 21% nationally.
Put plainly, lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 40351, 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 0.73 years of 74.2, 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.
