This area's pressures are easy to read across the measures: modeled mammography sits in the bottom 1.4% nationally, nitrate lands in the top 0.6% nationally, and extreme heat lies in the top 3.4% nationally. Modeled hearing disability stands in the top 4.5% nationally, high cholesterol rests in the top 3.5% nationally, and high blood pressure registers in the top 5.2% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease resides in the top 6.5% nationally, and mobility disability settles in the top 8.4% nationally. On the brighter side, housing-cost burden is in the bottom 4.7% nationally, and modeled binge drinking sits in the bottom 6.3% nationally.

Defined simply, nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. ZIP 73528, just across the boundary, comes out healthier overall.

Nearby & similar ZIPs

Editorially selected — see how this ZIP compares to nearby and similar places.

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 2.88 years of 81.5, 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.
