By its overall health score, Amoret, Missouri (ZIP 64722) lands in the bottom 29% nationally (22,894th) and the top 46% of Missouri (454th).
The measures split the difference for this area: housing-cost burden settles in the bottom 5.4% nationally, and fiber broadband lies in the top 5.9% nationally. Modeled arsenic resides in the bottom 8.6% nationally, and disaster risk lands in the bottom 9.0% nationally. Modeled industrial-pollution burden registers in the bottom 17% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure sits at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Against that, slow internet speeds rests in the top 7.5% nationally, unemployment is in the top 12.6% nationally, and floodplain exposure stands in the top 16% nationally. Modeled extreme heat settles in the top 17% nationally.
To translate a couple of terms, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 64720, just across the boundary.

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 3.00 years of 89.2, 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.
