What defines this ZIP
Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.
Grocery access
0.21 per 1,000 residents
in the top 6.8% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST96thUS93rdDefinition & source ›
The number of full supermarkets inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one. ZipVitals’s food-access signal is derived from these in-ZIP densities — it is not USDA’s food-desert designation, which measures distance to the nearest supermarket. Where a leg is missing, a ZIP reads “not determinable,” never “not a food desert.”

Full methodology ›The read
Bidwell, Ohio (ZIP 45614) ranks in the bottom 18% nationally (26,435th) and the bottom 19% of Ohio (956th).
A balanced set of signals defines this area, not any single one: grocery sits in the top 6.8% nationally, and distance to an emergency room resides in the bottom 13.1% nationally. Distance to a nursing home stands at the national minimum, shared with about 27% of ZIPs. Unemployment sits in the bottom 18% nationally. By contrast, home broadband subscription resides in the bottom 8.6% nationally, modeled industrial-pollution burden stands in the top 13.1% nationally, and poverty sits in the top 14.0% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease resides in the top 13.3% nationally, and tooth loss stands in the top 13.6% nationally. Recreation sits at the national minimum, shared with about 35% of ZIPs.
For context, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 45620, just across the boundary.

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 0.71 years of 75.5, 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.
