Full methodology ›The read
Stone Park, Illinois (ZIP 60165), overall, ranks in the bottom 17% nationally (26,535th) and the bottom 4.8% of Illinois (1,303rd).
Reading across the data, the real pressures come first: modeled uninsured lands in the top 0.7% nationally, colon screening lies in the bottom 0.7% nationally, and housing insecurity stands in the top 1.2% nationally. Modeled food insecurity rests in the top 1.8% nationally, modeled vision disability registers in the top 4.5% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure resides in the top 2.2% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden settles in the top 2.7% nationally, and fair or poor health is in the top 4.7% nationally. Modeled transportation sits in the top 3.9% nationally. More encouragingly, walkability lands in the top 0.5% nationally.
Measured against the nearby ZIPs, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". ZIP 60160, just across the boundary, comes out healthier overall.

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 2.26 years of 79.3, 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
