Radon
3 pCi/L
in the top 10.0% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST92ndUS90thDefinition & source ›
The modeled typical indoor radon level for this area, in picocuries per liter — the EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or above.
Modeled from indoor-radon measurements. In Alaska and Hawaii, where those measurements are not published, a US Geological Survey geologic radon-potential category stands in — a coarser input, disclosed rather than hidden.
Full methodology ›Binge drinking
19.7%
in the top 7.4% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST89thUS93rdDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults who report binge drinking — five or more drinks on one occasion for men, four or more for women.
Full methodology ›Child-care access
0.48 per 1,000 residents
in the top 11.5% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST90thUS89thDefinition & source ›
The number of child day-care services inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.
Full methodology ›Fiber broadband

in the top 13.3% nationally

ST95thUS87thDefinition & source ›
The share of homes where fiber-optic internet service is available.

Port Byron, Illinois (ZIP 61275), by its overall standing, sits in the top 21% healthiest ZIPs nationally (6,581st) and the top 17% of Illinois (239th).
Several readings land clearly in this area's favor and shape the picture: childcare stands in the top 11.5% nationally, fiber broadband lands in the top 13.3% nationally, and modeled transportation is in the bottom 15% nationally. Modeled cognitive disability resides in the bottom 14.4% nationally, recreation rests in the top 17% nationally, and modeled energy burden lies in the bottom 15% nationally. Modeled tooth loss sits in the bottom 16% nationally. Set against that, modeled radon settles in the top 10.0% nationally, and binge drinking registers in the top 7.4% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure stands in the top 17% nationally.
Held up against its neighbors, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined in plain terms, radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 52722, about 1.1 miles away.

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 1.63 years of 80.3, 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.
