The read
On balance, and by the composite measure, Reddell, Louisiana (ZIP 70580) ranks in the bottom 11.4% nationally (28,419th) and the bottom 40% of Louisiana (304th).
The burdens that read clearest in the data come first: poverty rests in the top 1.2% nationally, and housing-cost burden is in the top 1.5% nationally. Modeled binge drinking stands in the top 4.2% nationally, and cognitive disability settles in the top 5.3% nationally. Modeled tree cover lies at the national minimum, and floodplain exposure resides in the top 5.9% nationally. Better still, home broadband subscription lands at the national maximum, walkability registers in the top 3.5% nationally, and modeled disaster risk sits in the bottom 3.7% nationally. Modeled expected annual loss rests in the bottom 3.9% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer 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. Floodplain exposure is land with about a 1-in-100 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "100-year floodplain". For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 71463, about 3.3 miles away.

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 0.89 years of 72.4, 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.
