ZIP 70113, one of several in New Orleans, Louisiana, in overall standing, comes out in the bottom 4.7% nationally (30,582nd) and the bottom 17% of Louisiana (420th).
A demanding profile, and several measures drive it: modeled self-care disability registers in the top 1.1% nationally, tooth loss is in the top 1.3% nationally, and vision disability lies in the top 2.0% nationally. Modeled independent living disability registers in the top 2.5% nationally, utility shutoff is in the top 0.9% nationally, and cognitive disability lies in the top 2.0% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure registers in the top 1.4% nationally, and modeled loneliness is in the top 1.5% nationally. Modeled diabetes lies in the top 3.0% nationally. On the stronger side, walkability registers in the top 0.2% nationally.
Set within its surrounding area, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, for reference, outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". The closest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 70112, 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

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. How distance is measured
