Full methodology ›The read
On the composite measure, Grantsburg, Indiana (ZIP 47123) stands in the bottom 8.9% nationally (29,240th) and the bottom 3.9% of Indiana (728th).
A number of readings press hard on the profile and set its tone: modeled tooth loss sits in the top 2.3% nationally, and poverty resides in the top 3.5% nationally. Modeled mammography stands in the bottom 4.7% nationally, and household income sits in the bottom 0.5% nationally. Distance to an emergency room resides in the top 6.3% nationally. On the brighter side, housing-cost burden stands at the national minimum, modeled disaster risk sits in the bottom 2.1% nationally, and homeownership resides at the national maximum. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility stands in the top 6.1% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss sits in the bottom 7.2% nationally.
Set beside the wider area around it, home broadband subscription runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. 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. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. ZIP 47118, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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 0.84 years of 76.5, 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.
