FEMA’s modeled estimate, in dollars per year, of the average harm to people expected from natural hazards — an annualized average, not a forecast for any single year.

The share of occupied homes that are owned, rather than rented, by the people living in them.

in the bottom 3.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST24thUS3rdDefinition & source ›
The modeled typical indoor radon level for this area, in picocuries per liter — the EPA recommends fixing a home at 4 pCi/L or above.
Modeled from indoor-radon measurements. In Alaska and Hawaii, where those measurements are not published, a US Geological Survey geologic radon-potential category stands in — a coarser input, disclosed rather than hidden.
Full methodology ›Elder-services access
0.13 per 1,000 residents
in the top 11.8% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST91stUS88thDefinition & source ›
The number of services for older adults and people with disabilities inside this ZIP’s boundary, per 1,000 residents.
Counted from establishments located inside this ZIP’s boundary, so one just across the line is not counted. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the density to be reliable, no value is published rather than an unreliable one.
Full methodology ›Binge drinking
19.1%
in the top 10.5% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST93rdUS90thDefinition & source ›
The estimated share of adults who report binge drinking — five or more drinks on one occasion for men, four or more for women.
Full methodology ›The read
Judged by its overall standing, Nevada, Texas (ZIP 75173) sits in the top 36% healthiest ZIPs nationally (11,698th) and the top 19% of Texas (357th).
A few measures carry most of this area's good news: homeownership is in the top 9.3% nationally, modeled radon lies in the bottom 3.5% nationally, and elder services registers in the top 11.8% nationally. Poverty is in the bottom 13.7% nationally, modeled coronary heart disease lies in the bottom 13.3% nationally, and modeled stroke registers in the bottom 12.5% nationally. Set against that, modeled extreme heat is in the top 3.8% nationally, and expected annual loss lies in the top 8.9% nationally. Modeled binge drinking registers in the top 10.5% nationally, and humid heat is in the top 13.9% nationally.
Placed beside its immediate neighbors, expected annual loss runs far lower than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, 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. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 75166, 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 1.01 years of 76.3, 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.
