Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, ZIP 48302, one of several in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan sits in the top 1.8% healthiest ZIPs nationally (555th) and the top 1.4% of Michigan (13th).
The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: household income sits in the top 1.8% nationally, physicians registers in the top 1.5% nationally, and modeled housing insecurity lands in the bottom 1.6% nationally. Modeled transportation resides in the bottom 2.2% nationally, cognitive disability lies in the bottom 1.4% nationally, and food insecurity settles in the bottom 3.6% nationally. Modeled short sleep stands in the bottom 3.3% nationally, and utility shutoff is in the bottom 5.0% nationally. Modeled loneliness rests in the bottom 6.4% nationally. Working the other way, modeled pfas sits in the top 3.4% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. ZIP 48301, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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 0.86 years of 82.6, 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
