Where this area bears down hardest, the measures speak first: crowded housing rests in the top 0.6% nationally, and home broadband subscription is in the bottom 1.0% nationally. Modeled nitrate stands in the top 2.0% nationally, and unemployment settles in the top 2.6% nationally. Modeled hearing disability lies in the top 4.2% nationally, and extreme heat resides in the top 6.6% nationally. Fiber broadband lands at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled mammography registers in the bottom 11.3% nationally, and mobility disability sits in the top 12.5% nationally. On the encouraging side, modeled binge drinking rests in the bottom 10.6% nationally.

Compared with the ZIPs it borders, crowded housing runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, 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. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 74604, just across the boundary.

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 1.89 years of 75.9, 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.
