The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Overall, Creve Coeur, Illinois (ZIP 61610) lands in the bottom 30% nationally (22,380th) and the bottom 16% of Illinois (1,147th).
A number of measures pull each way for this area: fatal road crashes lies in the bottom 7.5% nationally, and lithium in drinking water lands in the bottom 13.6% nationally. Crowded housing sits at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Distance to a Superfund site is in the top 16% nationally, and walkability settles in the top 17% nationally. Set against that, modeled mammography resides in the bottom 8.1% nationally, home broadband subscription registers in the bottom 14.8% nationally, and lead in tap water rests in the top 15.0% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden stands in the top 15% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lies at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs.
Set beside the nearby areas, lead in tap water runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. A note on the terms: lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. For a healthier nearby comparison, ZIP 61554, just across the boundary, ranks better 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 1.05 years of 74.6, 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.
