From the measures on hand, the profile can say a few things: modeled industrial-pollution burden sits in the bottom 0.07% nationally, fiber broadband registers at the national maximum, and modeled air-toxics cancer risk lands in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled humid heat resides in the bottom 3.2% nationally. Unemployment lies at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Modeled transportation noise settles in the bottom 7.5% nationally. Households without a vehicle stands at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Against that, walkability is in the bottom 1.0% nationally, and poverty rests in the top 1.8% nationally. Modeled fine-particle sits in the top 6.2% nationally.

In everyday language, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. 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 1.70 years of 84.2, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
