Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.

Lower is healthier

ST1st
US7th
Definition & source ›

On the partial data in hand, the profile shows what it can: fiber broadband stands at the national maximum, homeownership lands at the national maximum, and floodplain exposure is at the national minimum. Modeled expected annual loss resides in the bottom 3.8% nationally, disaster risk rests in the bottom 5.4% nationally, and industrial-pollution burden lies in the bottom 7.2% nationally. Unemployment sits at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Households without a vehicle settles at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Distance to a Superfund site registers in the top 11.4% nationally. Set against that, modeled transportation noise stands in the top 12.4% nationally.

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. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby.

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 1.40 years of 78.6, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
