ST92ndUS92ndDefinition & source ›
The number of dental offices located inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.

Full methodology ›The read
In overall standing, ZIP 75062, one of several in Irving, Texas comes out in the top 41% healthiest ZIPs nationally (13,164th) and the top 22% of Texas (410th).
The profile opens balanced, with readings on either hand: lithium in drinking water rests in the bottom 3.5% nationally, and dental providers lies in the top 7.6% nationally. By contrast, modeled uninsured sits in the top 3.3% nationally, extreme heat settles in the top 2.2% nationally, and transportation noise registers in the top 2.7% nationally. Crowded housing stands in the top 5.4% nationally, and modeled disaster risk lands in the top 5.6% nationally. PFOA in drinking water is in the top 6.0% nationally, and PFOS in drinking water resides in the top 6.3% nationally. Homeownership rests in the bottom 7.0% nationally.
Relative to the ZIPs around it, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain terms, lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. PFOA in drinking water is one of the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 75038, 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

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.
