What defines this ZIP

Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.

Loneliness

25.4%

in the bottom 0.6% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST4th
US1st
Definition & source ›

The estimated share of adults who report feeling lonely.

Binge drinking

21.2%

Lower is healthier

ST80th

Definition & source ›

The estimated share of adults who report binge drinking — five or more drinks on one occasion for men, four or more for women.

Distance to a Superfund site

120.8 mi

in the top 2.7% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST23rd
US97th
Definition & source ›

The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest Superfund site — an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has listed for cleanup.

Full methodology ›

Lithium in drinking water

87 µg/L

in the top 3.9% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST68th
US96th
Definition & source ›

The average detected level of lithium — a natural trace metal with no federal drinking-water limit yet — across the public water systems serving this ZIP, in micrograms per liter.

Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

Full methodology ›

Radon

3.2 pCi/L

in the top 7.5% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST48th
US93rd
Definition & source ›

The modeled typical indoor radon level for this area, in picocuries per liter — the EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or above.

Modeled from indoor-radon measurements. In Alaska and Hawaii, where those measurements are not published, a US Geological Survey geologic radon-potential category stands in — a coarser input, disclosed rather than hidden.

Full methodology ›

Fine-particle (PM2.5) exceedance

1.6%

in the top 5.6% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST51st
US94th
Definition & source ›

The share of days in the year when modeled fine-particle (PM2.5) pollution was above the EPA’s daily limit of 35 micrograms per cubic meter.

Reading the numbers as a whole, the picture lands somewhere in between: modeled loneliness stands in the bottom 0.6% nationally, distance to a Superfund site rests in the top 2.7% nationally, and modeled transportation registers in the bottom 5.9% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity resides in the bottom 6.0% nationally, and food insecurity settles in the bottom 6.6% nationally. On the other side, modeled binge drinking is in the top 2.9% nationally, and lithium in drinking water sits in the top 3.9% nationally. Modeled radon lands in the top 7.5% nationally, and fine-particle lies in the top 5.6% nationally. Slow internet speeds stands in the top 6.0% nationally.

Put simply, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. On the overall standing, ZIP 58429, just across the boundary, ranks healthier.

“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 2.36 years of 82.7, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.

More ZIPs to explore ▾

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.
