Full methodology ›The read
By the composite measure, ZIP 75701, one of several in Tyler, Texas sits in the bottom 44% nationally (18,005th) and the top 34% of Texas (628th).
The profile cuts both ways, and the readings bear that out: physicians settles in the top 1.6% nationally, pharmacy stands in the top 3.3% nationally, and dental providers is in the top 3.6% nationally. Subsidized affordable housing rests in the top 3.9% nationally, lead in tap water sits at the national minimum, and outpatient registers in the top 5.3% nationally. Distance to an emergency room lands at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Walkability resides in the top 8.7% nationally. Working the other way, modeled air-toxics cancer risk lies in the top 4.5% nationally, and extreme heat settles in the top 7.1% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs that surround it, walkability runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain language, air-toxics cancer risk is a modeled EPA estimate of added lifetime cancer risk from breathing outdoor air, per million people. Lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Subsidized affordable housing is the main federal tax-credit program (HUD) funding affordable rental housing, counted as local units it supports. ZIP 75703, just across the boundary, ranks healthier overall.

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 0.63 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.
