Full methodology ›The read
Channahon, Illinois (ZIP 60410), on the composite measure, lands in the top 26% healthiest ZIPs nationally (8,466th) and the top 22% of Illinois (307th).
Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: home broadband subscription stands in the top 10.0% nationally, household income is in the top 10.0% nationally, and modeled coronary heart disease rests in the bottom 9.7% nationally. Modeled stroke sits in the bottom 8.3% nationally, and hearing disability registers in the bottom 11.0% nationally. On the other hand, distance to a Superfund site lands at the national minimum, and modeled binge drinking resides in the top 2.9% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden lies in the top 5.2% nationally, and radon settles in the top 8.1% nationally. Modeled pfas stands in the top 11.5% nationally.
Set against the neighboring ZIPs, industrial-pollution burden runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 60404, just across the boundary.

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 1.20 years of 80.4, 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
