ZIP 75771, one of several in Lindale, Texas, by its composite score, sits in the top 46% healthiest ZIPs nationally (14,621st) and the top 24% of Texas (455th).
The clearest bright points in the data come first here: lead in tap water lands at the national minimum, and modeled arsenic stands in the bottom 12.6% nationally. Distance to a nursing home registers at the national minimum, shared with about 27% of ZIPs. Lithium in drinking water settles in the bottom 14.3% nationally, modeled radon sits in the bottom 14.2% nationally, and subsidized affordable housing lies in the top 16% nationally. Elder services rests in the top 16% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure resides at the national minimum, shared with about 36% of ZIPs. By contrast, modeled extreme heat is in the top 6.3% nationally, and humid heat lands in the top 11.5% nationally.
For anyone unfamiliar, lead in tap water is the EPA trigger, 15 parts per billion in tap samples, above which a water system must act on lead. Arsenic is a natural groundwater contaminant, here a modeled estimate of the chance private-well levels exceed a benchmark. Lithium in drinking water is a natural metal that dissolves into some groundwater and has no federal drinking-water limit yet.

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 0.66 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.
