Strengths and concerns sit side by side across the measures here: housing-cost burden resides in the bottom 10.3% nationally. Crowded housing lands at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Modeled arsenic registers in the bottom 17% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility sits in the top 17% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure rests at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. On the other hand, fatal road crashes is in the top 2.2% nationally, and distance to an emergency room stands in the top 7.8% nationally. Fiber broadband settles at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Slow internet speeds lies in the top 18% nationally. Physicians resides at the national minimum, shared with about 38% of ZIPs.

In plainer terms, arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. 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. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 65040, just across the boundary.

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 77.6, 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.
