The modeled probability that untreated groundwater in this area — the source private wells draw on — exceeds the federal arsenic limit of 10 micrograms 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.

Magnolia, Arkansas (ZIP 71753), by its overall standing, sits in the bottom 19% nationally (26,078th) and the top 41% of Arkansas (230th).
The data points to real strain across a number of measures here: modeled disaster risk lands in the top 1.4% nationally, cognitive disability is in the top 6.9% nationally, and utility shutoff resides in the top 8.0% nationally. Modeled loneliness rests in the top 9.5% nationally, transportation lies in the top 9.5% nationally, and tooth loss sits in the top 9.9% nationally. Modeled food insecurity settles in the top 10.9% nationally. On the brighter side, modeled arsenic registers in the bottom 1.6% nationally, and mental-health providers stands in the top 4.7% nationally. Outpatient lands in the top 7.9% nationally.
Defined in plain 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. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 71740, 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 0.68 years of 74.6, 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.
