On balance, and by the composite measure, Royse City, Texas (ZIP 75189) ranks in the top 33% healthiest ZIPs nationally (10,553rd) and the top 17% of Texas (319th).
Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: modeled coronary heart disease resides in the bottom 5.7% nationally, and stroke lands in the bottom 6.7% nationally. Modeled hearing disability registers in the bottom 9.0% nationally, and household income sits in the top 10.6% nationally. Modeled radon rests in the bottom 7.5% nationally, and high blood pressure is in the bottom 10.4% nationally. Against that, modeled expected annual loss stands in the top 1.9% nationally, disaster risk settles in the top 2.5% nationally, and extreme heat lies in the top 3.7% nationally. Modeled binge drinking resides in the top 8.8% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, expected annual loss runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 75032, 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 0.49 years of 77.4, 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.
