Fatal road crashes

ST97thUS96thDefinition & source ›
The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.
A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, Leon, Kansas (ZIP 67074) sits in the bottom 41% nationally (18,921st) and the bottom 37% of Kansas (432nd).
The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: housing-cost burden lies in the bottom 14.8% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure settles at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Working the other way, fatal road crashes stands in the top 3.7% nationally, and distance to a community health center is in the top 8.1% nationally. Modeled mammography rests in the bottom 9.4% nationally, and walkability sits in the bottom 10.7% nationally. Modeled fine-particle registers in the top 11.7% nationally, and extreme heat lands in the top 12.5% nationally. Home broadband subscription resides in the bottom 13.9% nationally. Physicians lies at the national minimum, shared with about 38% of ZIPs.
In plain language, 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 community health center is a federally funded (HRSA) community health center serving everyone regardless of ability to pay. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. ZIP 67010, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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 80.7, 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.
