The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 0.2%-annual-chance flood band — the “500-year” zone, a lower but real 1-in-500 yearly chance.

Full methodology ›The read
By the composite health measure, Leavittsburg, Ohio (ZIP 44430) ranks in the bottom 6.3% nationally (30,050th) and the bottom 5.5% of Ohio (1,112th).
Several measures weigh most on this area's profile, and they come first: modeled short sleep stands in the top 3.0% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure lies in the top 2.5% nationally. Modeled pfas lands in the top 2.6% nationally, and utility shutoff sits in the top 5.0% nationally. Modeled obesity is in the top 3.3% nationally, arsenic settles in the top 5.3% nationally, and tooth loss resides in the top 8.3% nationally. Modeled transportation registers in the top 7.6% nationally, food insecurity rests in the top 8.1% nationally, and housing insecurity stands in the top 8.3% nationally.
Read against the ZIPs closest to it, outer-floodplain exposure runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". Close by, ZIP 44444, 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 1.18 years of 72.8, 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
