The read

In overall standing, Bock, Minnesota (ZIP 56313) comes out in the top 36% healthiest ZIPs nationally (11,404th) and the bottom 47% of Minnesota (456th).

continue reading

The profile opens balanced, with readings on either hand: fiber broadband settles at the national maximum, modeled disaster risk registers in the bottom 1.9% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss stands in the bottom 2.7% nationally. Floodplain exposure lands at the national minimum, modeled mammography is in the top 4.0% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden resides in the bottom 7.2% nationally. Walkability rests in the top 7.3% nationally. By contrast, distance to a community health center lies in the top 1.5% nationally, and unemployment sits in the top 5.4% nationally. Modeled fine-particle settles in the top 6.9% nationally.

Relative to the ZIPs around it, walkability runs far higher 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. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 55017, about 5.3 miles away.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 0.70 years of 77.3, 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.
