By the composite health measure, Tontogany, Ohio (ZIP 43565) ranks in the top 23% healthiest ZIPs nationally (7,481st) and the top 11.6% of Ohio (136th).
The signals balance out across the profile, strengths against concerns: modeled disaster risk settles in the bottom 0.3% nationally, and expected annual loss resides in the bottom 2.3% nationally. Walkability registers in the top 2.5% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site rests in the top 10.5% nationally. Modeled transportation stands in the bottom 12.4% nationally, and food insecurity lies in the bottom 13.5% nationally. Set against that, modeled transportation noise lands in the top 4.6% nationally. Fiber broadband sits at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled industrial-pollution burden is in the top 12.4% nationally, and housing-cost burden settles in the top 12.9% nationally.
Read against the ZIPs closest to it, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, 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. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Close by, ZIP 43566, about 2.6 miles away, ranks healthier overall.

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 2.23 years of 83.2, 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. How distance is measured
