Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility
21.4 mi
in the top 4.2% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST95thUS96thDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest facility that handles enough hazardous chemicals to require an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases.
Full methodology ›Energy-cost burden
5.6%
in the top 4.6% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST94thUS95thDefinition & source ›
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 ›Natural-disaster risk
in the bottom 6.9% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST11thUS7thDefinition & source ›
This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.
Full methodology ›Tree cover
74.6%
in the top 7.1% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST66thUS93rdDefinition & source ›
The share of this ZIP’s land area covered by forest.
Full methodology ›Expected annual disaster loss

in the bottom 7.1% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST4thUS7thDefinition & source ›
FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.
Full methodology ›Industrial-pollution burden
in the bottom 8.7% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST14thUS9thDefinition & source ›
The EPA’s modeled screening score for industrial chemical releases, weighting the amounts released by their toxicity and how many people live nearby — a relative comparison score, not a measured exposure.
Full methodology ›Floodplain exposure
1.2%
in the bottom 13.6% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST10thUS14thDefinition & source ›
The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.
Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.
Full methodology ›The read
On what the available sources can show, for Avawam, Kentucky (ZIP 41713), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
Where the data reaches, it shows a few things about this area: distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lands in the top 4.2% nationally, and modeled disaster risk sits in the bottom 6.9% nationally. Modeled tree cover is in the top 7.1% nationally, and expected annual loss settles in the bottom 7.1% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden resides in the bottom 8.7% nationally. Modeled extreme heat registers at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled loud transportation noise rests at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Floodplain exposure stands in the bottom 13.6% nationally. By contrast, modeled energy burden lies in the top 4.6% nationally, and pfas lands in the top 18% nationally.
To spell things out, 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. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards.

|---|---|---|---|
| Life expectancy at birth | 76.2 yr ± 1.90 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 74.8 yr (71.5–78.1) n=739 |
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 1.90 years of 76.2, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
