On the composite measure, Powersite, Missouri (ZIP 65731) stands in the bottom 35% nationally (20,765th) and the top 36% of Missouri (360th).
Several readings make the pressure on this area plain: distance to an emergency room resides in the top 2.3% nationally, and home broadband subscription stands in the bottom 8.0% nationally. Fiber broadband sits at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled pfas resides in the top 11.4% nationally. On the encouraging side, modeled transportation noise stands at the national minimum. Unemployment sits at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Households without a vehicle resides at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Housing-cost burden stands in the bottom 9.4% nationally, and modeled disaster risk sits in the bottom 10.7% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise resides at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs.
Set beside the wider area around it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For clarity, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. ZIP 65616, about 0.2 miles away, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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 0.99 years of 75.7, 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.
