The picture here is genuinely mixed, with readings on both sides: distance to an emergency room stands at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Modeled high cholesterol lies in the bottom 6.3% nationally, and high blood pressure lands in the bottom 7.3% nationally. Elder services sits in the top 10.7% nationally, and subsidized affordable housing is in the top 11.3% nationally. Distance to a community health center settles at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. On the other side, lithium in drinking water resides in the top 7.2% nationally, modeled cognitive disability registers in the top 8.2% nationally, and modeled expected annual loss rests in the top 7.8% nationally. Slow internet speeds stands in the top 8.1% nationally.

Read against the ZIPs closest to it, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To spell things out, lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Subsidized affordable housing is the main federal tax-credit program (HUD) funding affordable rental housing, counted as local units it supports. Close by, ZIP 64019, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

“Share” is how much of this ZIP’s score the domain accounts for. Percentages are rounded; higher is healthier in every domain. How the score works, and who it compares you with ›

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 0.77 years of 77.5, 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.
