Full methodology ›The read
Barneveld, Wisconsin (ZIP 53507), by its overall standing, sits in the top 18% healthiest ZIPs nationally (5,839th) and the top 18% of Wisconsin (134th).
The data is generous to this ZIP in several places worth naming: modeled utility shutoff registers in the bottom 8.6% nationally, transportation stands in the bottom 11.1% nationally, and food insecurity lands in the bottom 13.5% nationally. Modeled pfas is in the bottom 13.6% nationally, modeled high blood pressure resides in the bottom 11.8% nationally, and childcare rests in the top 14.3% nationally. Modeled loneliness lies in the bottom 14.9% nationally, and household income sits in the top 12.1% nationally. Working the other way, modeled binge drinking settles in the top 4.5% nationally, and radon registers in the top 13.9% nationally.
Defined in plain terms, radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. 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. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 53517, just across the boundary.

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 1.28 years of 84.3, 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.
