Full methodology ›The read
In overall standing, ZIP 57105, one of several in Sioux Falls, South Dakota comes out in the top 16% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,972nd) and the top 5.9% of South Dakota (21st).
The measures fall on both sides of the ledger for this area: physicians lands in the top 1.7% nationally, dental providers is in the top 2.1% nationally, and modeled short sleep resides in the bottom 2.2% nationally. Outpatient rests in the top 5.1% nationally, mental-health providers lies in the top 5.2% nationally, and pharmacy sits in the top 5.4% nationally. Distance to an emergency room settles at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Set against that, modeled expected annual loss registers in the top 2.3% nationally, and disaster risk stands in the top 5.5% nationally. Modeled radon lands in the top 8.2% nationally.
Relative to the ZIPs around it, outer-floodplain exposure runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. 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. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 57108, 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.

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 0.66 years of 79.1, 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.
