Full methodology ›The read
Trinity, Texas (ZIP 75862), by its overall standing, sits in the bottom 15% nationally (27,115th) and the bottom 20% of Texas (1,497th), based on limited data; treat as directional.
The measures fall on both sides of the ledger for this area: distance to an emergency room settles at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Set against that, modeled expected annual loss registers in the top 4.4% nationally, humid heat stands in the top 5.4% nationally, and extreme heat lands in the top 6.1% nationally. Modeled coronary heart disease is in the top 8.3% nationally, and stroke resides in the top 8.9% nationally. Fiber broadband rests at the national minimum, shared with about 19% of ZIPs. Modeled mobility disability lies in the top 10.3% nationally, and diabetes sits in the top 10.2% nationally. Modeled mammography settles in the bottom 10.4% nationally.
Held up against its neighbors, expected annual loss runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Defined in plain terms, expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Humid heat is a modeled heat-stress measure combining temperature, humidity, sun, and wind to gauge heat on the body outdoors. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. The nearest ZIP ranking healthier overall is ZIP 75845, 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

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.
