What defines this ZIP
Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.
Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility
35.1 mi
in the top 1.5% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest facility that handles enough hazardous chemicals to require an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases.
Full methodology ›Energy-cost burden
6.3%
in the top 2.1% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST95thUS98thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.
A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.
Full methodology ›Transportation noise
0.00%
at the national minimum
Lower is healthier
ST1stUS1stDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of residents exposed to average road, rail, and aviation noise at or above 55 decibels — a noticeable background presence.
Full methodology ›Distance to a nursing home
24.5 mi
in the top 2.3% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST99thUS98thDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest Medicare- or Medicaid-certified nursing home.
Full methodology ›Distance to an emergency room
27.2 mi
in the top 2.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST99thUS98thDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest Medicare-certified hospital with an emergency room.
Full methodology ›Natural-disaster risk
in the bottom 2.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST3rdUS3rdDefinition & source ›
This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.
Full methodology ›Air-toxics cancer risk
10 per million
in the bottom 2.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST1stUS3rdDefinition & source ›
The EPA’s modeled estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air toxics, in cases per million people exposed over a lifetime.
Full methodology ›Expected annual disaster loss
$0
in the bottom 3.0% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST2ndUS3rdDefinition & source ›
FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.
Full methodology ›Humid extreme heat
7.5 days/year
in the bottom 4.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST2ndUS5thDefinition & source ›
The average number of days per year when modeled heat stress — temperature, humidity, sun, and wind combined — reaches levels hard on the body outdoors.
Full methodology ›Fine-particle (PM2.5) exceedance
1.6%
in the top 5.6% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST76thUS94thDefinition & source ›
The share of days in the year when modeled fine-particle (PM2.5) pollution was above the EPA’s daily limit of 35 micrograms per cubic meter.
Full methodology ›The read
With only some of the sources reporting, for Margie, Minnesota (ZIP 56658), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
The partial picture points to a handful of readings, with caveats: distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lands in the top 1.5% nationally, modeled transportation noise lies at the national minimum, and modeled disaster risk stands in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk rests in the bottom 2.8% nationally, expected annual loss registers in the bottom 3.0% nationally, and humid heat resides in the bottom 4.8% nationally. Set against that, modeled energy burden settles in the top 2.1% nationally, and distance to a nursing home is in the top 2.3% nationally. Distance to an emergency room sits in the top 2.5% nationally, and modeled fine-particle lands in the top 5.6% nationally.
Put simply, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. 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 | 81.4 yr ± 2.82 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 81.1 yr (78.3–84.8) n=864 |
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 2.82 years of 81.4, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
