The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.
Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.
Full methodology ›The read
Ulman, Missouri (ZIP 65083), in overall standing, comes out in the bottom 31% nationally (22,229th) and the top 42% of Missouri (422nd).
A demanding profile, and several measures drive it: modeled hearing disability registers in the top 5.2% nationally. Fiber broadband is at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. On the stronger side, housing-cost burden lies at the national minimum, and poverty registers at the national minimum. Modeled industrial-pollution burden is in the bottom 4.5% nationally. Unemployment lies at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Modeled transportation noise registers in the bottom 7.5% nationally. Households without a vehicle is at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Modeled arsenic lies in the bottom 10.6% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise registers at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs.
Defined simply, for reference, industrial-pollution burden is the EPA's modeled screening score weighting industrial chemical releases by their toxicity and how many people live nearby. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 65082, 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 0.98 years of 76.1, 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.
