Radon

ST96thUS98thDefinition & source ›
The modeled typical indoor radon level for this area, in picocuries per liter — the EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or above.
Modeled from indoor-radon measurements. In Alaska and Hawaii, where those measurements are not published, a US Geological Survey geologic radon-potential category stands in — a coarser input, disclosed rather than hidden.

The share of residents whose income is below the federal poverty line, from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.

Full methodology ›The read
Cable, Ohio (ZIP 43009) ranks in the top 50% healthiest ZIPs nationally (15,902nd) and the top 35% of Ohio (417th).
Several signals sit on each side of the ledger here: poverty stands in the bottom 7.1% nationally, and modeled transportation noise sits in the bottom 10.0% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise resides at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Modeled disaster risk stands in the bottom 11.5% nationally, homeownership sits in the top 12.2% nationally, and fatal road crashes resides in the bottom 17% nationally. Working the other way, modeled radon stands in the top 2.1% nationally, short sleep sits in the top 8.6% nationally, and obesity resides in the top 11.7% nationally. Modeled arsenic stands in the top 17% nationally.
For context, radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 43357, 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

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.
