The number of outpatient clinics located inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.

Full methodology ›The read
On the composite measure, Kingston, Missouri (ZIP 64650) stands in the bottom 25% nationally (23,933rd) and the bottom 48% of Missouri (515th).
A number of readings press hard on the profile and set its tone: home broadband subscription settles in the bottom 6.0% nationally, and slow internet speeds rests in the top 7.8% nationally. Distance to an emergency room lands in the top 7.9% nationally, and modeled tooth loss settles in the top 10.6% nationally. Modeled colon screening rests in the bottom 11.7% nationally, and household income lands in the bottom 9.5% nationally. Recreation settles at the national minimum, shared with about 35% of ZIPs. On the brighter side, outpatient rests in the top 0.7% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure lands at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Modeled disaster risk settles in the bottom 18% nationally.
Set beside the wider area around it, outpatient runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". ZIP 64429, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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 0.99 years of 78.3, 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.
