What defines this ZIP
Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.
Floodplain exposure
0.00%
at the national minimum
Lower is healthier
ST1stUS1stDefinition & source ›
The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 1%-annual-chance floodplain — the “100-year” flood zone, where flooding has about a 1-in-100 chance in any given year.
Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.
Full methodology ›Natural-disaster risk
in the bottom 4.7% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST2ndUS5thDefinition & source ›
This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.
Full methodology ›Transportation noise
13.6%
in the top 5.2% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST97thUS95thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of residents exposed to average road, rail, and aviation noise at or above 55 decibels — a noticeable background presence.
Full methodology ›Expected annual disaster loss
$0
in the bottom 5.3% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST2ndUS5thDefinition & source ›
FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.
Full methodology ›Fine-particle (PM2.5) exceedance
0.82%
in the top 10.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST93rdUS90thDefinition & source ›
The share of days in the year when modeled fine-particle (PM2.5) pollution was above the EPA’s daily limit of 35 micrograms per cubic meter.
Full methodology ›Distance to an emergency room
14.4 mi
in the top 12.3% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST94thUS88thDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest Medicare-certified hospital with an emergency room.
Full methodology ›PFAS in drinking water
42%
in the top 20% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST92ndUS80thDefinition & source ›
The modeled probability that PFAS “forever chemicals” would be detected in untreated groundwater in this area, the source private wells draw on.
A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.
Full methodology ›Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility
5.3 mi
in the top 27% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST95thUS73rdDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest facility that handles enough hazardous chemicals to require an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases.
Full methodology ›Humid extreme heat
87.8 days/year
in the top 29% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST94thUS71stDefinition & source ›
The average number of days per year when modeled heat stress — temperature, humidity, sun, and wind combined — reaches levels hard on the body outdoors.
Full methodology ›The read
From the measures that could be gathered, for Sycamore, Kansas (ZIP 67363), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
From the data that is available, the profile takes shape carefully: floodplain exposure lies at the national minimum, and modeled disaster risk rests in the bottom 4.7% nationally. Modeled expected annual loss resides in the bottom 5.3% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure is at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. On the other side, modeled transportation noise lands in the top 5.2% nationally. Fiber broadband stands at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled fine-particle registers in the top 10.5% nationally, modeled extreme heat settles in the top 11.9% nationally, and distance to an emergency room sits in the top 12.3% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise lies in the top 19% nationally.
For readers new to these terms, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Fine-particle is fine airborne particles about one-thirtieth the width of a hair, counted on modeled days above the EPA standard.

|---|---|---|---|
| Life expectancy at birth | 84.3 yr ± 2.43 | 78.9 yr (74.7–82.8) n=31,308 | 78.9 yr (76.2–81.8) n=687 |
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 2.43 years of 84.3, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
