The number of services for older adults and people with disabilities inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, Roseland, Kansas (ZIP 66773) lands in the bottom 23% nationally (24,626th) and the bottom 8.6% of Kansas (624th).
The burdens that read clearest in the data come first: modeled fine-particle resides in the top 7.3% nationally, and obesity lands in the top 5.4% nationally. Distance to a Superfund site registers in the bottom 10.2% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility sits at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs. Modeled energy burden rests in the top 12.1% nationally, and extreme heat is in the top 16% nationally. Recreation stands at the national minimum, shared with about 35% of ZIPs. Floodplain exposure settles in the top 18% nationally. Better still, elder services lies in the top 0.4% nationally, and childcare resides in the top 0.9% nationally.
Weighed against the ZIPs nearby, elder services runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. To translate a couple of terms, fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. 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. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 66724, 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 1.88 years of 76.9, 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. How distance is measured
