Radon

3.3 pCi/L

in the top 7.0% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST75th
US93rd
Definition & source ›

The modeled typical indoor radon level for this area, in picocuries per liter — the EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or above.

Modeled from indoor-radon measurements. In Alaska and Hawaii, where those measurements are not published, a US Geological Survey geologic radon-potential category stands in — a coarser input, disclosed rather than hidden.

Full methodology ›

Outer-floodplain exposure

5.6%

in the top 6.6% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST95th
US93rd
Definition & source ›

The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 0.2%-annual-chance flood band — the “500-year” zone, a lower but real 1-in-500 yearly chance.

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 ›

Fiber broadband

ST54th
US92nd
Definition & source ›

The modeled share of this area’s domestic-well groundwater at or above the federal nitrate limit of 10 milligrams per liter.

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.

The read

With the picture still incomplete, for Pfeifer, Kansas (ZIP 67660), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.

From the measures on hand, the profile can say a few things: housing-cost burden is at the national minimum, and modeled transportation noise rests at the national minimum. Unemployment sits at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Fiber broadband registers in the top 7.8% nationally. Against that, poverty lands in the top 0.6% nationally, and slow internet speeds resides in the top 4.2% nationally. Modeled radon lies in the top 7.0% nationally, and outer-floodplain exposure settles in the top 6.6% nationally. Modeled nitrate stands in the top 8.2% nationally, and distance to a nursing home is in the top 9.0% nationally.

Set against the neighboring ZIPs, poverty runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels.

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 1.64 years of 79.5, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
