Full methodology ›The read
Red Oak, Texas (ZIP 75154) ranks in the top 39% healthiest ZIPs nationally (12,454th) and the top 20% of Texas (381st).
Several of the strongest readings define how this area looks: subsidized affordable housing registers in the top 6.5% nationally, and modeled hearing disability lies in the bottom 10.0% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease is in the bottom 12.1% nationally. Distance to a nursing home registers at the national minimum, shared with about 27% of ZIPs. Modeled radon lies in the bottom 9.8% nationally. On the other hand, modeled extreme heat is in the top 3.3% nationally, expected annual loss registers in the top 10.0% nationally, and humid heat lies in the top 13.0% nationally. Modeled short sleep is in the top 13.5% nationally, and uninsured registers in the top 10.9% nationally.
Against its neighbors, park land runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. For context, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. The closest ZIP that ranks healthier overall is ZIP 75104, 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 0.70 years of 78.4, 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.
