continue reading

Taken together, the data gives a genuinely mixed reading: modeled coronary heart disease lies in the bottom 2.0% nationally, walkability stands in the top 2.7% nationally, and modeled hearing disability rests in the bottom 2.1% nationally. Modeled stroke registers in the bottom 3.5% nationally. On the other side, modeled expected annual loss resides in the top 0.4% nationally, and disaster risk settles in the top 0.6% nationally. Homeownership is in the bottom 2.2% nationally, and modeled transportation noise sits in the top 3.4% nationally. Modeled extreme heat lands in the top 3.6% nationally, and housing-cost burden lies in the top 4.8% nationally.

Measured against the nearby ZIPs, expected annual loss runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined simply, 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. Transportation noise is the modeled share of an area exposed to average road, rail, and air noise at or above 55 decibels. ZIP 75001, just across the boundary, comes out healthier overall.

Findings that name this ZIP

One of our published findings lists this ZIP code. Each finding compares one published measure against a stated benchmark, and names only the ZIP codes whose estimates are reliable enough to rank. See all surprising findings.

  • Heavy environment, light chronic burden

    Where the environment and chronic illness point in opposite directions

    Environmental-hazard standing 25.1; chronic-disease standing 95.0 (top 10%) — 70 points apart, heavier on the environment than it is on chronic illness.

    Ranked #16,374 of the 18,187 ZIP codes this finding names, ordered by the gap from cleanest environment to heaviest chronic burden, highest first.

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

More ZIPs to explore ▾

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.
