On what has been documented so far, the readings are limited but real: walkability lies in the top 0.2% nationally, fiber broadband sits at the national maximum, and modeled expected annual loss settles in the bottom 1.1% nationally. Modeled disaster risk registers in the bottom 1.4% nationally, modeled transportation noise stands at the national minimum, and poverty lands at the national minimum. Homeownership is at the national maximum, and home broadband subscription resides at the national maximum. Working the other way, unemployment rests in the top 0.10% nationally, and housing-cost burden lies in the top 0.7% nationally.

Defined in plain 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. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels.

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 1.59 years of 76.9, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
