The number of child day-care services inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, Deadwood, South Dakota (ZIP 57732) sits in the top 44% healthiest ZIPs nationally (14,138th) and the bottom 34% of South Dakota (239th).
Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: childcare sits in the top 0.8% nationally, park land registers in the top 1.0% nationally, and modeled tree cover lands in the top 2.7% nationally. Civic resides in the top 4.0% nationally, and pharmacy lies in the top 4.9% nationally. Distance to an emergency room settles at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk stands in the bottom 6.1% nationally, and dental providers is in the top 6.5% nationally. On the other hand, distance to a Superfund site rests at the national minimum, and fatal road crashes sits in the top 4.8% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. ZIP 57702, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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 1.06 years of 80.7, 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.
