Walkability
1.7 intersections/sq mi
in the bottom 6.0% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST1stUS6thDefinition & source ›
The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.
Full methodology ›Floodplain exposure

in the bottom 9.7% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST11thUS10thDefinition & source ›
The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.
Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.

Full methodology ›The read
By the composite health measure, Thompson, Ohio (ZIP 44086) ranks in the top 26% healthiest ZIPs nationally (8,313th) and the top 13.4% of Ohio (157th).
A handful of measures stand out most sharply across the profile here: floodplain exposure rests in the bottom 9.7% nationally, and modeled disaster risk stands in the bottom 10.9% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise lies at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Homeownership lands in the top 11.2% nationally, modeled transportation sits in the bottom 12.4% nationally, and modeled food insecurity is in the bottom 13.5% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity settles in the bottom 15% nationally, modeled tree cover resides in the top 16% nationally, and poverty registers in the bottom 18% nationally. On the other side, walkability rests in the bottom 6.0% nationally.
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. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". 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. Close by, ZIP 44024, 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 1.40 years of 77.9, 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.
