Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, Huntsburg, Ohio (ZIP 44046) sits in the bottom 12.6% nationally (28,031st) and the bottom 12.5% of Ohio (1,030th).
Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: modeled disaster risk sits in the bottom 9.0% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise registers at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Childcare lands in the top 12.8% nationally. On the other hand, modeled tooth loss resides in the top 6.7% nationally, and fatal road crashes lies in the top 6.9% nationally. Households without a vehicle settles in the top 7.7% nationally. Fiber broadband stands at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled independent living disability is in the top 11.9% nationally, loneliness rests in the top 12.4% nationally, and arsenic sits in the top 12.5% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, 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. 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. ZIP 44021, just across the boundary, 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 2.59 years of 82.3, 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
