Full methodology ›The read
From what the available data documents, for Nahma, Michigan (ZIP 49864), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
On what has been documented so far, the readings are limited but real: modeled disaster risk is in the bottom 0.8% nationally, modeled transportation noise resides at the national minimum, and poverty rests at the national minimum. Homeownership lies at the national maximum, modeled humid heat sits in the bottom 2.7% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss settles in the bottom 2.7% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk registers in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Working the other way, distance to a community health center stands in the top 1.4% nationally, and home broadband subscription lands in the bottom 2.5% nationally. Distance to a nursing home is in the top 3.3% nationally.
Relative to the ZIPs around it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain terms, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people.

|---|---|---|---|
| Life expectancy at birth | 81.6 yr ± 2.17 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 78.6 yr (75.7–81.6) n=940 |
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 2.17 years of 81.6, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
