Energy-cost burden

in the top 0.8% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST96thUS99thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.
A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.

ST89thUS98thDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest facility that handles enough hazardous chemicals to require an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases.
Full methodology ›Floodplain exposure
0.00%
at the national minimum
Lower is healthier
ST1stUS1stDefinition & source ›
The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.
Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.
Full methodology ›Expected annual disaster loss

in the bottom 3.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST1stUS3rdDefinition & source ›
FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.
Full methodology ›Distance to a Superfund site
101.2 mi
in the top 3.6% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST82ndUS96thDefinition & 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.

1.3 intersections/sq mi

The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.
Full methodology ›The read
On the measures available for this ZIP, for Hathaway, Montana (ZIP 59333), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
The data opens carefully, on limited coverage: housing-cost burden sits at the national minimum, and poverty lies at the national minimum. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility rests in the top 2.4% nationally, and floodplain exposure resides at the national minimum. Modeled expected annual loss is in the bottom 3.5% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site lands in the top 3.6% nationally. On the other hand, modeled energy burden stands in the top 0.8% nationally, households without a vehicle registers in the top 2.0% nationally, and modeled fine-particle settles in the top 2.3% nationally. Walkability sits in the bottom 3.8% nationally.
For anyone unfamiliar, fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards.

|---|---|---|---|
| Life expectancy at birth | 79.0 yr ± 2.77 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 79.7 yr (76.7–83.7) n=358 |
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 2.77 years of 79.0, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
