Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, Ada, Ohio (ZIP 45810) sits in the bottom 33% nationally (21,606th) and the bottom 41% of Ohio (689th).
The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: modeled high cholesterol is in the bottom 5.7% nationally, and lead in tap water rests in the bottom 12.4% nationally. Distance to a nursing home sits at the national minimum, shared with about 27% of ZIPs. Modeled stroke registers in the bottom 12.5% nationally. Working the other way, modeled loneliness lands in the top 7.0% nationally, and slow internet speeds resides in the top 8.8% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden lies in the top 9.9% nationally, and cognitive disability settles in the top 10.7% nationally. Modeled transportation stands in the top 13.3% nationally, and radon is in the top 16% nationally.
In plain language, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. ZIP 45817, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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 1.50 years of 81.0, 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.
