Tooth loss
40.7%
in the top 0.4% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST98thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults aged 65 and older who have lost all of their natural teeth.
Full methodology ›Fatal road crashes
89.8 per 100,000 residents per year
in the top 0.7% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.
Full methodology ›Arsenic in groundwater
1.1%
in the bottom 3.0% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST1stUS3rdDefinition & source ›
The modeled probability that untreated groundwater in this area — the source private wells draw on — exceeds the federal arsenic limit of 10 micrograms per liter.
A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.
Full methodology ›Short sleep

in the top 3.7% nationally
Lower is healthier

The estimated share of adults who usually sleep less than seven hours in a 24-hour period.
Full methodology ›Loud transportation noise
2.5%
in the top 5.3% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST96thUS95thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of residents exposed to average road, rail, and aviation noise at or above 65 decibels — around the volume of normal conversation.
Full methodology ›Crowded housing

Full methodology ›The read
From the measures that could be gathered, Bonnieville, Kentucky (ZIP 42713) lands in the bottom 0.4% nationally (31,947th) and the bottom 7.1% of Kentucky (690th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
So far as the data reaches, a few readings can be drawn: modeled arsenic settles in the bottom 3.0% nationally. Distance to a community health center sits at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Modeled tree cover lies in the top 11.6% nationally. By contrast, modeled tooth loss rests in the top 0.4% nationally, fatal road crashes resides in the top 0.7% nationally, and modeled short sleep is in the top 3.7% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise lands in the top 5.3% nationally, crowded housing stands in the top 9.8% nationally, and distance to a nursing home registers in the top 12.4% nationally. Modeled transportation noise settles in the top 12.5% nationally.
For readers new to these terms, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. 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. Distance to a community health center is a federally funded (HRSA) community health center serving everyone regardless of ability to pay. Among nearby ZIPs, the nearest healthier one overall is ZIP 42757, 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.
Compared with the ZIP codes measured across all nine scoring domains — not with all US ZIP codes.
Nothing measured is lifting 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 1.22 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.
