Henley, Missouri (ZIP 65040) ranks in the top 37% healthiest ZIPs nationally (11,900th) and the top 11.5% of Missouri (114th).
The bright spots in the data define much of the story here: housing-cost burden is in the bottom 6.0% nationally. Unemployment registers at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Modeled transportation noise lies in the bottom 11.9% nationally, and poverty is in the bottom 12.2% nationally. Crowded housing registers at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Modeled arsenic lies in the bottom 16% nationally, and distance to a hazardous-chemical facility is in the top 17% nationally. On the other side, distance to an emergency room registers in the top 4.2% nationally. Fiber broadband lies at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Fatal road crashes is in the top 16% nationally.
For context, 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. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 65075, 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 1.12 years of 75.9, 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.
