From the measures that are available, a few readings can be named: fiber broadband sits at the national maximum, and distance to a Superfund site is in the top 1.3% nationally. Modeled expected annual loss settles in the bottom 1.4% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility resides in the top 1.8% nationally. Modeled transportation noise registers at the national minimum, and poverty rests at the national minimum. On the other side, homeownership stands at the national minimum, home broadband subscription lies in the bottom 0.8% nationally, and housing-cost burden lands in the top 1.1% nationally.

A note on the terms: distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. 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.

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 2.21 years of 80.8, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
