By the composite measure, Owanka, South Dakota (ZIP 57767) sits in the top 28% healthiest ZIPs nationally (9,003rd) and the top 32% of South Dakota (115th).
The readings split fairly evenly between strengths and concerns: household income lies at the national maximum, fiber broadband settles at the national maximum, and poverty stands at the national minimum. Modeled air-toxics cancer risk is in the bottom 2.8% nationally, distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests in the top 4.2% nationally, and modeled colon screening sits in the top 2.5% nationally. Housing-cost burden registers in the bottom 4.8% nationally. Working the other way, home broadband subscription lands in the bottom 1.1% nationally, and walkability resides in the bottom 1.3% nationally. Distance to an emergency room lies in the top 2.5% nationally.
In plain language, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. 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. ZIP 57787, about 6.0 miles away, 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 1.01 years of 81.6, 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.
