Natural-disaster risk
in the top 2.6% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST95thUS97thDefinition & source ›
This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.
Full methodology ›Walkability
1.3 intersections/sq mi
in the bottom 3.9% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST2ndUS4thDefinition & source ›
The number of street intersections per square mile — a standard street-connectivity measure; denser networks correlate with more walkable neighborhoods.
Full methodology ›Nitrate in drinking water

in the top 7.0% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST85thUS93rdDefinition & source ›
The modeled share of this area’s domestic-well groundwater at or above the federal nitrate limit of 10 milligrams per liter.
A modeled likelihood for untreated groundwater, the source drawn on by private wells, which are federally unregulated. It is not a measurement of treated water delivered by a public system, and it is not a test of any individual well.
Full methodology ›Poverty rate
2.0%
in the bottom 7.0% nationally
Lower is healthier
ST7thUS7thDefinition & source ›
The share of residents whose income is below the federal poverty line, from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.

The average number of days per year with a modeled daily high of at least 95 °F.

Lower is healthier
ST11thUS9thDefinition & source ›
The share of households spending 30% or more of their income on housing.
Full methodology ›Radon
0.7 pCi/L

Lower is healthier
ST20thUS3rdDefinition & 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 ›Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility
12.1 mi
in the top 11.0% nationally
Higher is healthier
ST96thUS89thDefinition & source ›
The distance in miles from this ZIP’s edge to the nearest facility that handles enough hazardous chemicals to require an EPA risk-management plan for accidental releases.
Full methodology ›The read
By its overall health score, Bagwell, Texas (ZIP 75412) lands in the bottom 26% nationally (23,591st) and the bottom 41% of Texas (1,110th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: poverty settles in the bottom 7.0% nationally. Unemployment lies at the national minimum, shared with about 15% of ZIPs. Households without a vehicle resides at the national minimum, shared with about 16% of ZIPs. Housing-cost burden lands in the bottom 9.1% nationally, and modeled radon registers in the bottom 2.8% nationally. Against that, modeled disaster risk sits in the top 2.6% nationally, walkability rests in the bottom 3.9% nationally, and modeled nitrate is in the top 7.0% nationally. Modeled extreme heat stands in the top 7.5% nationally, and mammography settles in the bottom 10.4% nationally.
To translate a couple of terms, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Nitrate is a groundwater compound from fertilizer, manure, and sewage, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. Overall, the nearest healthier neighbor is ZIP 75436, 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 0.89 years of 75.5, 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.
