By its overall health score, Piqua, Kansas (ZIP 66761) lands in the bottom 27% nationally (23,516th) and the bottom 11.8% of Kansas (602nd).
Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: homeownership lies at the national maximum. Crowded housing resides at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Modeled expected annual loss lands in the bottom 14.5% nationally. Against that, modeled mammography registers in the bottom 5.0% nationally, and housing-cost burden sits in the top 4.3% nationally. Fiber broadband rests at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled hearing disability is in the top 12.7% nationally, modeled extreme heat stands in the top 13.5% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure settles in the top 14.4% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility lies at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs.
To translate a couple of terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. 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. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 66748, 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 1.86 years of 74.8, 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.
