Full methodology ›The read
Rutland, Ohio (ZIP 45775) ranks in the bottom 8.0% nationally (29,531st) and the bottom 6.8% of Ohio (1,097th).
A profile of give and take, with clear readings each way: modeled tree cover lies in the top 6.1% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is in the top 13.1% nationally. On the other side, modeled coronary heart disease registers in the top 3.6% nationally, and obesity lies in the top 4.6% nationally. Modeled diabetes is in the top 7.5% nationally, and high blood pressure registers in the top 8.1% nationally. Fiber broadband lies at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled industrial-pollution burden is in the top 10.5% nationally, stroke registers in the top 10.1% nationally, and fair or poor health lies in the top 12.6% nationally.
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. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 45769, 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 1.26 years of 76.1, 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.
