The measures fall on both sides of the ledger for this area: fiber broadband lands in the top 3.5% nationally, and poverty is in the bottom 9.1% nationally. Distance to a community health center resides at the national minimum, shared with about 23% of ZIPs. Housing-cost burden rests in the bottom 16% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure lies at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Set against that, distance to an emergency room sits in the top 4.6% nationally, and modeled mammography settles in the bottom 9.1% nationally. Modeled fine-particle registers in the top 9.8% nationally, and extreme heat stands in the top 13.5% nationally. Recreation lands at the national minimum, shared with about 35% of ZIPs.

In plain 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 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. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 67351, about 3.8 miles away.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 1.44 years of 79.6, 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.
