What defines this ZIP

Metrics where this ZIP sits in the tails of the national distribution — the ones that most set it apart. Select any tile for its definition and methodology.

Civic-institution access

0.97 per 1,000 residents

in the top 4.4% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST98th

US96th

Definition & source ›

The number of civic and social organizations 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.

Mammography

66.8%

in the bottom 5.1% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST5th

Definition & source ›

The estimated share of women aged 50–74 who had a mammogram within the past two years.

Full methodology ›

Dry extreme heat

77.9 days/year

in the top 5.2% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST47th

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

Radon

ST21st

US3rd

Definition & 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.

The read

Judged by its overall standing, Celeste, Texas (ZIP 75423) sits in the bottom 16% nationally (26,892nd) and the bottom 21% of Texas (1,471st).

A few readings each way define this mixed profile: civic rests in the top 4.4% nationally, and modeled radon settles in the bottom 3.0% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure lands at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. Pulling the other way, modeled mammography rests in the bottom 5.1% nationally, and extreme heat settles in the top 5.2% nationally. Modeled uninsured lands in the top 9.8% nationally, and humid heat rests in the top 13.8% nationally. Poverty settles in the top 15% nationally, and modeled colon screening lands in the bottom 13.7% nationally. Recreation rests at the national minimum, shared with about 35% of ZIPs.

Put plainly, 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. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 75401, just across the boundary.

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

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 1.30 years of 78.2, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.

Statistically similar ZIPs nationally

Similar means a ZIP whose health profile is shaped like this one’s — the same pattern of strengths and weaknesses across the nine health domains behind the Score, not similar demographics or income. The percentage is how closely the two patterns line up. A very similar ZIP can still have a different overall Score.

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.
