In overall standing, Haigler, Nebraska (ZIP 69030) comes out in the top 41% healthiest ZIPs nationally (13,160th) and the bottom 32% of Nebraska (387th).
The measures fall on both sides of the ledger for this area: modeled loneliness settles in the bottom 8.4% nationally, fiber broadband registers in the top 10.3% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site stands in the top 12.1% nationally. Set against that, distance to a community health center lands in the top 0.4% nationally, modeled nitrate is in the top 1.5% nationally, and walkability resides in the bottom 4.1% nationally. Home broadband subscription rests in the bottom 11.1% nationally, and modeled tree cover lies in the bottom 11.3% nationally. Modeled extreme heat sits in the top 11.8% nationally, and distance to a nursing home settles in the top 13.6% nationally.
In plain terms, nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Distance to a community health center is a federally funded (HRSA) community health center serving everyone regardless of ability to pay. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 69023, 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 1.25 years of 79.1, 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.
