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.

Floodplain exposure

85.3%

in the top 0.9% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST99th
US99th
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.

Definition & source ›

This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.

The read

With only part of the picture in hand, for Hematite, Missouri (ZIP 63047), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.

With coverage still limited, the data points to what it can here: modeled expected annual loss rests in the bottom 7.0% nationally, and energy burden sits in the bottom 22% nationally. Working the other way, floodplain exposure registers in the top 0.9% nationally, modeled loud transportation noise lands in the top 2.0% nationally, and modeled transportation noise resides in the top 2.4% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure lies in the top 3.6% nationally, and distance to an emergency room settles in the top 4.3% nationally. Fiber broadband stands at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Park land is at the national minimum, shared with about 48% of ZIPs. Modeled extreme heat rests in the top 25% nationally.

Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, floodplain exposure runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". Loud transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to road, rail, and air noise at or above 65 decibels, near conversation volume.

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 1.62 years of 78.7, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
