Full methodology ›The read
Hartsburg, Missouri (ZIP 65039), by its composite score, sits in the top 13.1% healthiest ZIPs nationally (4,169th) and the top 2.5% of Missouri (24th).
The data opens on a genuinely even set of readings: modeled loneliness sits in the bottom 1.7% nationally, and food insecurity lies in the bottom 4.3% nationally. Housing-cost burden rests in the bottom 5.4% nationally, and homeownership resides in the top 7.0% nationally. Modeled housing insecurity is in the bottom 7.4% nationally, household income lands in the top 8.0% nationally, and modeled transportation stands in the bottom 8.7% nationally. Modeled short sleep registers in the bottom 11.0% nationally. On the other side, floodplain exposure settles in the top 9.5% nationally, and modeled industrial-pollution burden sits in the top 10.0% nationally.
Next to the surrounding area, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For anyone unfamiliar, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". Among the ZIPs nearby, none ranks healthier overall than this one.

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 1.09 years of 81.3, 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.
