Lower is healthier
ST82ndUS99thDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of this area’s domestic-well groundwater at or above the federal nitrate limit of 10 milligrams 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.

Lower is healthier
ST1stUS1stDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of residents exposed to average road, rail, and aviation noise at or above 55 decibels — a noticeable background presence.

Lower is healthier

The share of residents whose income is below the federal poverty line, from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.

Lower is healthier
US94thDefinition & source ›
The lead level at the 90th percentile of tap-water samples reported by the public water systems serving this ZIP, in parts per billion — the EPA requires action above 15 ppb.
Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

Full methodology ›The read
With the picture still incomplete, for Loveland, Oklahoma (ZIP 73553), health standing is not ranked here — the available data is too limited to place it confidently.
With coverage still limited, the data points to what it can here: modeled transportation noise resides at the national minimum, and poverty lies at the national minimum. Unemployment settles at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Working the other way, modeled nitrate stands in the top 1.5% nationally, and extreme heat is in the top 2.7% nationally. Home broadband subscription rests in the bottom 2.9% nationally, and slow internet speeds sits in the top 3.2% nationally. Distance to an emergency room registers in the top 4.6% nationally, and lead in tap water lands in the top 6.1% nationally. Distance to a nursing home resides in the top 6.6% nationally.
Set against the neighboring ZIPs, slow internet speeds runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels.

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 1.78 years of 78.3, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.
