Bisbee, North Dakota (ZIP 58317), by its composite score, sits in the bottom 41% nationally (18,760th) and the bottom 9.8% of North Dakota (335th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The measures that define this area's challenges come through directly: modeled hearing disability sits in the top 1.8% nationally, and coronary heart disease lies in the top 3.3% nationally. Modeled radon rests in the top 7.9% nationally, and obesity resides in the top 5.3% nationally. On the stronger side, distance to a Superfund site is in the top 0.8% nationally, fiber broadband lands at the national maximum, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk stands in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled loneliness registers in the bottom 4.5% nationally, humid heat settles in the bottom 7.2% nationally, and transportation noise sits in the bottom 8.0% nationally.
For anyone unfamiliar, 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. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. For a healthier comparison close by, see ZIP 58353, 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 1.54 years of 79.3, 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.
