A number of measures mark where this area is under strain: distance to an emergency room rests in the top 8.2% nationally, and slow internet speeds stands in the top 9.9% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lies at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs. Home broadband subscription lands in the bottom 16% nationally. On the brighter side, elder services sits in the top 0.4% nationally, and fiber broadband is in the top 13.1% nationally. Crowded housing settles at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Unemployment resides in the bottom 15.0% nationally, housing-cost burden registers in the bottom 17% nationally, and households without a vehicle rests in the bottom 17% nationally.

Set beside the nearby areas, elder services runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. A note on the terms: 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. For a healthier nearby comparison, ZIP 64422, just across the boundary, ranks better 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 1.04 years of 78.7, 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.
