continue reading

A balanced showing across the data, with a few readings each side: housing-cost burden lands in the bottom 4.6% nationally, and modeled tree cover rests in the top 7.2% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise settles at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. On the other hand, modeled short sleep lands in the top 3.6% nationally, and tooth loss rests in the top 7.7% nationally. Modeled obesity settles in the top 5.8% nationally, and diabetes lands in the top 8.8% nationally. Fiber broadband rests at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled utility shutoff settles in the top 11.4% nationally, and high blood pressure lands in the top 11.1% nationally.

Placed beside its immediate neighbors, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, 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. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 43758, just across the boundary.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 1.28 years of 76.4, 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.
