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

0.5 per 1,000 residents

in the top 1.5% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST99th
US99th
Definition & 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.”

The signals balance out across the profile, strengths against concerns: grocery stands in the top 1.5% nationally, and pharmacy lies in the top 5.1% nationally. Park land lands in the top 5.6% nationally, and modeled tree cover sits in the top 6.6% nationally. Set against that, modeled tooth loss is in the top 4.9% nationally, mammography settles in the bottom 4.2% nationally, and short sleep resides in the top 6.3% nationally. Modeled obesity registers in the top 4.4% nationally, modeled energy burden rests in the top 5.9% nationally, and home broadband subscription stands in the bottom 9.1% nationally.

Read against the ZIPs closest to it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. Close by, ZIP 45653, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 1.66 years of 75.3, 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.
