PFAS in drinking water

The share of residents served by public water systems where PFAS — man-made “forever chemicals” that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down — were detected in EPA testing.
Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

Full methodology ›The read
Ohlman, Illinois (ZIP 62076), by its overall standing, sits in the bottom 35% nationally (20,694th) and the bottom 24% of Illinois (1,042nd), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The profile opens balanced, with readings on either hand: homeownership stands in the top 5.9% nationally, modeled disaster risk lands in the bottom 6.0% nationally, and housing-cost burden is in the bottom 10.9% nationally. Modeled expected annual loss resides in the bottom 11.1% nationally. By contrast, PFAS in drinking water rests at the national maximum, and modeled transportation noise lies in the top 5.9% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise sits in the top 7.5% nationally. Fiber broadband settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Unemployment registers in the top 11.1% nationally, and modeled arsenic stands in the top 11.3% nationally.
Defined in plain terms, PFAS in drinking water is the family of man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 62075, 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 1.57 years of 77.8, 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
