Where the data leans one way, another reading answers it: poverty is at the national minimum. Households without a vehicle rests at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Housing-cost burden sits in the bottom 9.7% nationally. Crowded housing registers at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Homeownership lands in the top 17% nationally. On the other hand, unemployment resides in the top 9.1% nationally, and lead in tap water lies in the top 10.5% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden settles in the top 11.2% nationally, and distance to an emergency room stands in the top 15.0% nationally. Recreation is at the national minimum, shared with about 35% of ZIPs.

In plain language, 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. ZIP 63743, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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 1.12 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.
