Several signals sit on each side of the ledger here: modeled high blood pressure settles in the bottom 6.3% nationally, and hearing disability rests in the bottom 9.0% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease lands in the bottom 8.7% nationally, and walkability settles in the top 10.7% nationally. Distance to a community health center rests at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Modeled obesity lands in the bottom 13.0% nationally. Working the other way, modeled expected annual loss settles in the top 2.1% nationally, industrial-pollution burden rests in the top 4.0% nationally, and disaster risk lands in the top 5.4% nationally. Modeled colon screening settles in the bottom 6.8% nationally.

Set beside the wider area around it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. ZIP 60103, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

Findings that name this ZIP

One of our published findings lists this ZIP code. Each finding compares one published measure against a stated benchmark, and names only the ZIP codes whose estimates are reliable enough to rank. See all surprising findings.

  • Heavy environment, light chronic burden

    Where the environment and chronic illness point in opposite directions

    Environmental-hazard standing 21.1; chronic-disease standing 91.0 (top 10%) — 70 points apart, heavier on the environment than it is on chronic illness.

    Ranked #16,374 of the 18,187 ZIP codes this finding names, ordered by the gap from cleanest environment to heaviest chronic burden, highest first.

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

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.
