Full methodology ›The read
Wilkesville, Ohio (ZIP 45695), in overall standing, comes out in the bottom 16% nationally (27,040th) and the bottom 17% of Ohio (980th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
A few readings each way define this mixed profile: modeled tree cover registers in the top 4.5% nationally, housing-cost burden is in the bottom 8.3% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss lies in the bottom 11.2% nationally. Modeled pfas registers in the bottom 13.1% nationally. Pulling the other way, modeled coronary heart disease is in the top 4.3% nationally, and home broadband subscription lies in the bottom 5.8% nationally. Fiber broadband registers at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled tooth loss is in the top 10.2% nationally, and diabetes lies in the top 10.2% nationally. Slow internet speeds registers in the top 11.2% nationally.
Defined simply, for reference, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. 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. The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 45634, 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 2.00 years of 74.6, 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.
