Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, East Springfield, Ohio (ZIP 43925) lands in the bottom 31% nationally (22,066th) and the bottom 40% of Ohio (708th).
The measures that press hardest set the tone here: modeled transportation noise resides in the top 2.4% nationally. On the stronger side, fiber broadband lands at the national maximum, and modeled expected annual loss registers in the bottom 1.8% nationally. Housing-cost burden sits at the national minimum, modeled disaster risk rests in the bottom 2.0% nationally, and modeled colon screening is in the top 0.9% nationally. Poverty stands at the national minimum, homeownership settles at the national maximum, and home broadband subscription lies at the national maximum. Floodplain exposure resides at the national minimum.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 43953, about 7.0 miles away.

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 1.41 years of 78.0, 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
