A number of measures mark where this area is under strain: modeled expected annual loss sits in the top 1.5% nationally, and disaster risk is in the top 2.1% nationally. Modeled obesity settles in the top 4.4% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure resides in the top 12.4% nationally. On the brighter side, distance to an emergency room registers at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Subsidized affordable housing rests in the top 5.7% nationally, physicians stands in the top 8.6% nationally, and outpatient lies in the top 9.4% nationally. Mental-health providers lands in the top 10.5% nationally. Distance to a community health center sits at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs.

Set beside the nearby areas, expected annual loss runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. A note on the terms: expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Subsidized affordable housing is the main federal tax-credit program (HUD) funding affordable rental housing, counted as local units it supports. For a healthier nearby comparison, ZIP 47111, just across the boundary, ranks better overall.

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 0.51 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. How distance is measured
