ST1stUS1stDefinition & source ›
The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Judged by its overall standing, Unionville, Indiana (ZIP 47468) sits in the top 32% healthiest ZIPs nationally (10,330th) and the top 11.7% of Indiana (88th).
A few readings each way define this mixed profile: fatal road crashes stands at the national minimum, modeled tree cover resides in the top 3.9% nationally, and modeled disaster risk sits in the bottom 7.2% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity stands in the bottom 8.1% nationally, and transportation resides in the bottom 9.9% nationally. Crowded housing sits at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Modeled food insecurity stands in the bottom 14.8% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility resides in the top 17% nationally. Pulling the other way, modeled high cholesterol sits in the top 4.6% nationally, and walkability stands in the bottom 13.8% nationally.
Placed beside its immediate neighbors, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, 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. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 47401, about 4.1 miles away.

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 2.23 years of 79.5, 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.
