The average detected level of lithium — a natural trace metal with no federal drinking-water limit yet — across the public water systems serving this ZIP, in micrograms per liter.
Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.
A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.

Full methodology ›The read
On the limited readings gathered so far, Pine Ridge, Kentucky (ZIP 41360) lands in the bottom 0.2% nationally (32,007th) and the bottom 4.4% of Kentucky (710th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
On the measures in hand, a few readings come through: park land resides in the top 1.0% nationally, modeled tree cover sits in the top 1.1% nationally, and lithium in drinking water stands in the bottom 3.0% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility resides in the top 4.4% nationally. Against that, modeled tooth loss sits in the top 0.3% nationally, and poverty stands in the top 0.8% nationally. Modeled short sleep resides in the top 1.6% nationally, and housing-cost burden sits in the top 3.5% nationally. Modeled energy burden stands in the top 3.4% nationally, and household income resides in the bottom 0.8% nationally.
Placed beside its immediate neighbors, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. 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. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 40322, 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 1.91 years of 76.7, 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.
