Full methodology ›The read
From what the available data documents, for ZIP 58402, one of several in Jamestown, North Dakota, health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
On what has been documented so far, the readings are limited but real: distance to a Superfund site registers in the top 1.9% nationally, floodplain exposure stands at the national minimum, and modeled expected annual loss lands in the bottom 6.0% nationally. Walkability is in the top 10.8% nationally. Working the other way, unemployment resides in the top 0.4% nationally, and poverty rests in the top 1.2% nationally. Distance to an emergency room lies in the top 1.6% nationally, and distance to a community health center sits in the top 3.5% nationally. Modeled tree cover settles at the national minimum, and fine-particle registers in the top 6.9% nationally.
Relative to the ZIPs around it, unemployment runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain 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. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard.

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 2.39 years of 74.3, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
