Full methodology ›The read
Given the gaps in coverage here, for Alamo, Indiana (ZIP 47916), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
The profile opens on partial but real readings: walkability sits in the top 0.7% nationally, modeled expected annual loss settles in the bottom 1.7% nationally, and modeled disaster risk registers in the bottom 2.1% nationally. Modeled transportation noise stands at the national minimum, and floodplain exposure lands at the national minimum. Unemployment is at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Households without a vehicle resides at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Fiber broadband rests in the top 8.1% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise lies at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Against that, poverty sits in the top 2.3% nationally.
Held up against its neighbors, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. 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.

| Life expectancy at birth | 79.4 yr ± 0.91 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 78.5 yr (75.1–81.5) n=754 |
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 0.91 years of 79.4, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
