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.

Dry extreme heat

68.2 days/year

in the top 6.1% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST40th
US94th
Definition & source ›

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

Full methodology ›

Fatal road crashes

38.3 per 100,000 residents per year

in the top 7.6% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST86th
US92nd
Definition & source ›

The annual rate of fatal road crashes per 100,000 residents, pooled over a ten-year window.

A rate per resident population. Where a ZIP has too few residents for the rate to be reliable — about 30% of US ZIPs — no value is published rather than an unstable one; those ZIPs are absent from this comparison, not counted as crash-free.

Full methodology ›

Grocery access

0.18 per 1,000 residents

in the top 9.0% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST93rd
US91st
Definition & source ›

The number of full supermarkets 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. ZipVitals’s food-access signal is derived from these in-ZIP densities — it is not USDA’s food-desert designation, which measures distance to the nearest supermarket. Where a leg is missing, a ZIP reads “not determinable,” never “not a food desert.”

Full methodology ›

Humid extreme heat

132.2 days/year

in the top 9.4% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST54th
US91st
Definition & source ›

The average number of days per year when modeled heat stress — temperature, humidity, sun, and wind combined — reaches levels hard on the body outdoors.

Taken together, the data gives a genuinely mixed reading: grocery registers in the top 9.0% nationally, modeled pfas resides in the bottom 12.4% nationally, and distance to a Superfund site settles in the top 13.1% nationally. Modeled radon is in the bottom 10.8% nationally, modeled arsenic sits in the bottom 15% nationally, and recreation lands in the top 17% nationally. On the other side, modeled extreme heat lies in the top 6.1% nationally, and fatal road crashes stands in the top 7.6% nationally. Modeled humid heat rests in the top 9.4% nationally. Distance to a hazardous-chemical facility registers at the national minimum, shared with about 31% of ZIPs.

Defined simply, pfas is the man-made "forever chemicals" that build up in the body and environment instead of breaking down; here a modeled estimate of the chance a private well contains them. Distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Radon is a radioactive soil gas the EPA identifies as the top cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers. ZIP 75757, 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.

  • Clean environment, heavy chronic burden

    Where the environment and chronic illness point in opposite directions

    Environmental-hazard standing 86.3; chronic-disease standing 30.4 — 56 points apart, cleaner on the environment than it is on chronic illness.

    Ranked #2,044 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

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 0.87 years of 78.5, 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.
