On balance, and by the composite measure, Pringle, South Dakota (ZIP 57773) ranks in the top 21% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,627th) and the top 14.5% of South Dakota (52nd).
Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: park land resides in the top 0.7% nationally, and fiber broadband lands at the national maximum. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility registers in the top 1.5% nationally, and modeled humid heat sits in the bottom 3.1% nationally. Modeled short sleep rests in the bottom 4.0% nationally, housing-cost burden is in the bottom 5.3% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss stands in the bottom 5.4% nationally. Households without a vehicle settles at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Against that, distance to an emergency room lies in the top 1.6% nationally, and distance to a community health center resides in the top 2.6% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, 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. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Distance to a community health center is a federally funded (HRSA) community health center serving everyone regardless of ability to pay.

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 1.59 years of 81.9, 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.
