Dennis, Kansas (ZIP 67341), by its overall standing, sits in the bottom 48% nationally (16,538th) and the top 48% of Kansas (326th).
The data points to real strain across a number of measures here: crowded housing lies in the top 2.1% nationally, home broadband subscription sits in the bottom 4.7% nationally, and distance to an emergency room settles in the top 5.4% nationally. Households without a vehicle registers in the top 7.0% nationally, modeled fine-particle stands in the top 11.7% nationally, and modeled extreme heat lands in the top 13.3% nationally. On the brighter side, poverty is at the national minimum, and homeownership resides at the national maximum. Housing-cost burden rests in the bottom 4.8% nationally. Unemployment lies at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs.
Defined 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. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 66740, 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 1.59 years of 77.4, 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.
