Full methodology ›The read
Working from the partial data available, Majestic, Kentucky (ZIP 41547) lands in the bottom 0.3% nationally (32,001st) and the bottom 4.8% of Kentucky (707th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
A few available readings carry what can be said: modeled tree cover lies in the top 0.8% nationally, and housing-cost burden registers at the national minimum. Working the other way, poverty is in the top 0.5% nationally, unemployment lies in the top 0.5% nationally, and modeled tooth loss registers in the top 2.9% nationally. Modeled short sleep is in the top 1.5% nationally, and households without a vehicle lies in the top 1.0% nationally. Home broadband subscription registers in the bottom 1.0% nationally, and modeled energy burden is in the top 1.8% nationally. Household income lies in the bottom 0.08% nationally.
Set within its surrounding area, unemployment runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, for reference, energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 25672, just across the boundary.
What’s driving this score
Nine domains make up the ZipVitals Score — here is how this ZIP does on each, and how much each one counts.

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 1.44 years of 69.3, 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.
