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.

Elder-services access

1.3 per 1,000 residents

in the top 0.5% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST92nd
US99th
Definition & source ›

The number of services for older adults and people with disabilities inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.

Full methodology ›

Distance to a Superfund site

286.8 mi

in the top 0.5% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST94th
US99th
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 ›

Binge drinking

21.8%

in the top 2.0% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST87th
US98th
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.

Full methodology ›

Radon

3.4 pCi/L

in the top 5.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST75th
US95th
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

2.3%

in the top 3.7% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST75th
US96th
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.

Full methodology ›

Industrial-pollution burden

in the bottom 4.8% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST24th
US5th
Definition & source ›

The EPA’s modeled screening score for industrial chemical releases, weighting the amounts released by their toxicity and how many people live nearby — a relative comparison score, not a measured exposure.

Full methodology ›

Fiber broadband

97.2%

in the top 7.8% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST47th
US92nd
Definition & source ›

The share of homes where fiber-optic internet service is available.

Full methodology ›

Transportation noise

0.12%

in the bottom 8.7% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST28th
US9th
Definition & source ›

The average number of days per year when modeled heat stress — temperature, humidity, sun, and wind combined — reaches levels hard on the body outdoors.

The read

In overall standing, Glenburn, North Dakota (ZIP 58740) comes out in the top 26% healthiest ZIPs nationally (8,208th) and the top 33% of North Dakota (121st), based on limited data; treat as directional.

continue reading

Both sides of the picture show up plainly in this area's numbers: elder services stands in the top 0.5% nationally, distance to a Superfund site lands in the top 0.5% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden is in the bottom 4.8% nationally. Fiber broadband resides in the top 7.8% nationally, modeled transportation noise rests in the bottom 8.7% nationally, and modeled humid heat lies in the bottom 9.2% nationally. Modeled loneliness sits in the bottom 9.6% nationally. By contrast, modeled binge drinking settles in the top 2.0% nationally, and radon registers in the top 5.4% nationally. Modeled fine-particle stands in the top 3.7% nationally.

Relative to the ZIPs around it, elder services 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. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 58703, just across the boundary.

“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 2.49 years of 80.0, 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.
