Full methodology ›The read
Long Grove, Illinois (ZIP 60047), on the composite measure, lands in the top 2.2% healthiest ZIPs nationally (693rd) and the top 2.2% of Illinois (29th).
Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: household income lands in the top 1.9% nationally, modeled transportation resides in the bottom 1.6% nationally, and modeled utility shutoff lies in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Modeled food insecurity settles in the bottom 3.1% nationally, cognitive disability stands in the bottom 1.4% nationally, and housing insecurity is in the bottom 3.6% nationally. Modeled independent living disability rests in the bottom 1.9% nationally, and fair or poor health sits in the bottom 2.5% nationally. On the other hand, modeled expected annual loss registers in the top 3.2% nationally, and lead in tap water lands in the top 5.2% nationally.
Set against the neighboring ZIPs, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 60061, just across the boundary. Across the board, the area also sits on the healthier half of the national range on at least seven of the ten good-life measures tracked here, from quiet and green space to nearby care, a combination reached by about one in twenty-five US ZIP codes.

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 0.55 years of 80.9, 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. How distance is measured
