Fatal road crashes

Lower is healthier
ST99thUS99thDefinition & source ›
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.

Full methodology ›The read
Augusta, Missouri (ZIP 63332), by its composite score, sits in the top 17% healthiest ZIPs nationally (5,530th) and the top 4.0% of Missouri (39th).
The measures land in both directions, and neither dominates: modeled loneliness lies in the bottom 1.2% nationally, and household income rests in the top 4.3% nationally. Modeled food insecurity resides in the bottom 2.6% nationally, and housing insecurity is in the bottom 4.4% nationally. Modeled transportation lands in the bottom 5.1% nationally, poverty stands in the bottom 6.4% nationally, and homeownership registers in the top 6.7% nationally. Modeled colon screening settles in the top 5.3% nationally. Pulling the other way, fatal road crashes sits in the top 1.2% nationally, and PFAS in drinking water lies at the national maximum.
Next to the surrounding area, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For anyone unfamiliar, PFAS in drinking water is the family of man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down.

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 2.23 years of 83.8, 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
