Full methodology ›The read
On the composite measure, Midway, Texas (ZIP 75852) stands in the bottom 18% nationally (26,329th) and the bottom 25% of Texas (1,410th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The weightiest signals in the profile are worth naming up front: modeled uninsured settles in the top 1.5% nationally, and colon screening rests in the bottom 3.2% nationally. Modeled binge drinking lands in the top 2.4% nationally, and short sleep settles in the top 4.4% nationally. Modeled extreme heat rests in the top 5.7% nationally, tooth loss lands in the top 7.2% nationally, and humid heat settles in the top 6.2% nationally. Walkability rests in the bottom 8.2% nationally. More positively, modeled high cholesterol lands in the bottom 2.5% nationally, and coronary heart disease settles in the bottom 6.3% nationally.
For clarity, 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. ZIP 75833, just across the boundary, ranks better overall among the ZIPs nearby.

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

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.
