Tom Bean, Texas (ZIP 75489), on the composite measure, lands in the bottom 48% nationally (16,572nd) and the top 30% of Texas (552nd).
The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: modeled disaster risk sits in the bottom 3.8% nationally, poverty registers in the bottom 8.5% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site lands in the top 10.6% nationally. Modeled loud transportation noise resides at the national minimum, shared with about 22% of ZIPs. Modeled expected annual loss lies in the bottom 11.3% nationally. Crowded housing settles at the national minimum, shared with about 29% of ZIPs. Working the other way, modeled extreme heat stands in the top 5.4% nationally, and distance to a community health center is in the top 7.0% nationally. Modeled humid heat rests in the top 15% nationally. Recreation sits at the national minimum, shared with about 35% of ZIPs.
In everyday language, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 75491, 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 1.74 years of 77.2, 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.
