The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

On the composite measure, Oregonia, Ohio (ZIP 45054) stands in the top 19% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,118th) and the top 8.8% of Ohio (103rd).
The strongest marks in the data are worth naming first: homeownership settles in the top 8.8% nationally, and modeled food insecurity rests in the bottom 11.0% nationally. Modeled transportation lands in the bottom 11.1% nationally, and housing insecurity settles in the bottom 14.3% nationally. Crowded housing rests at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Modeled independent living disability lands in the bottom 12.2% nationally. On the other side, fatal road crashes settles in the top 4.4% nationally, home broadband subscription rests in the bottom 12.0% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden lands in the top 12.4% nationally.

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 1.59 years of 81.6, 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
