Radon
3.5 pCi/L
in the top 4.7% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST54thUS95thDefinition & source ›
The modeled typical indoor radon level for this area, in picocuries per liter — the EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or above.
Modeled from indoor-radon measurements. In Alaska and Hawaii, where those measurements are not published, a US Geological Survey geologic radon-potential category stands in — a coarser input, disclosed rather than hidden.

By its overall health score, Fedora, South Dakota (ZIP 57337) lands in the top 37% healthiest ZIPs nationally (11,796th) and the bottom 49% of South Dakota (183rd).
Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: distance to a Superfund site rests in the top 3.5% nationally, and modeled short sleep is in the bottom 6.2% nationally. Unemployment stands at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Households without a vehicle settles at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Fiber broadband lies in the top 9.0% nationally, housing-cost burden resides in the bottom 9.3% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden lands in the bottom 10.3% nationally. Against that, modeled radon registers in the top 4.7% nationally, walkability sits in the bottom 3.1% nationally, and slow internet speeds rests in the top 4.3% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, slow internet speeds runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 57314, 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 1.30 years of 79.4, 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.
