The read

By the composite measure, ZIP 58705, one of several in Minot Afb, North Dakota sits in the top 6.2% healthiest ZIPs nationally (1,969th) and the top 0.9% of North Dakota (3rd), based on limited data; treat as directional.

continue reading

Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: modeled high cholesterol sits in the bottom 0.2% nationally, high blood pressure registers in the bottom 0.3% nationally, and diabetes lands in the bottom 0.3% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease resides in the bottom 0.4% nationally, stroke lies in the bottom 0.3% nationally, and mobility disability settles in the bottom 0.09% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site stands in the top 0.4% nationally, and modeled hearing disability is in the bottom 0.6% nationally. On the other hand, modeled binge drinking rests in the top 0.05% nationally, and slow internet speeds sits at the national maximum.

Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, slow internet speeds runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. No nearby ZIP ranks healthier overall than this one.

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 3.14 years of 80.5, 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.
