Fatal road crashes

in the top 2.7% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST99thUS97thDefinition & source ›
The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.
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.

Burnett, Wisconsin (ZIP 53922), by its composite score, sits in the top 40% healthiest ZIPs nationally (12,830th) and the bottom 41% of Wisconsin (452nd).
Where the data is kindest to this area, a few readings lead the way: park land resides in the top 5.9% nationally, and modeled utility shutoff is in the bottom 9.7% nationally. Modeled loneliness lands in the bottom 10.9% nationally, and disaster risk stands in the bottom 11.7% nationally. Crowded housing registers at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. On the other hand, fatal road crashes settles in the top 2.7% nationally, and floodplain exposure sits in the top 9.5% nationally. Fiber broadband lies at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Walkability rests in the bottom 12.4% nationally, and modeled obesity resides in the top 11.7% nationally.
Next to the surrounding area, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For anyone unfamiliar, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". For a healthier comparison close by, see ZIP 53050, 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 2.79 years of 85.1, 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.
