What defines this ZIP

Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.

Child-care access

0.75 per 1,000 residents

in the top 4.6% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST96th
US95th
Definition & 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 ›

Floodplain exposure

31.4%

in the top 9.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST92nd
US91st
Definition & source ›

The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.

Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.

Full methodology ›

Industrial-pollution burden

in the bottom 10.8% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST5th
US11th
Definition & source ›

The EPA’s modeled screening score for industrial chemical releases, weighting the amounts released by their toxicity and how many people live nearby — a relative comparison score, not a measured exposure.

Full methodology ›

Crowded housing

5.7%

in the top 11.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST95th
US89th
Definition & source ›

The share of occupied homes with more than one person per room, the Census definition of crowded housing.

Full methodology ›

Energy-cost burden

4.8%

in the top 11.9% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST94th
US88th
Definition & source ›

The modeled share of household income spent on home energy bills — electricity, gas, and heating fuels.

A modeled share of household income spent on home energy. Estimates that hit the model’s 100% ceiling are suppressed rather than published, because at that point the figure reflects the model’s limit rather than a measured burden.

Full methodology ›

Dry extreme heat

20.6 days/year

in the top 22% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST99th
US78th
Definition & source ›

The average number of days per year with a modeled daily high of at least 95 °F.

Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: childcare registers in the top 4.6% nationally, modeled industrial-pollution burden lands in the bottom 10.8% nationally, and dental providers resides in the top 12.5% nationally. On the other hand, floodplain exposure lies in the top 9.4% nationally. Fiber broadband settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled radon stands in the top 13.1% nationally, and crowded housing is in the top 11.4% nationally. Modeled energy burden rests in the top 11.9% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility sits at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs. Fatal road crashes registers in the top 16% nationally.

In everyday language, 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. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is a plant handling large amounts of hazardous chemicals that must file an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 62363, just across the boundary.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 1.08 years of 78.4, 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.
