ZIP 76131, one of several in Fort Worth, Texas, on the composite measure, lands in the top 25% healthiest ZIPs nationally (7,931st) and the top 13.1% of Texas (244th).
Reading across the measures, this area's clearest strengths come through: modeled coronary heart disease sits in the bottom 2.5% nationally, subsidized affordable housing registers in the top 3.8% nationally, and modeled high cholesterol lands in the bottom 3.4% nationally. Modeled hearing disability resides in the bottom 2.8% nationally, high blood pressure lies in the bottom 3.9% nationally, and stroke settles in the bottom 3.5% nationally. By contrast, modeled extreme heat stands in the top 2.6% nationally, and disaster risk is in the top 5.5% nationally. Modeled colon screening rests in the bottom 8.2% nationally, and expected annual loss sits in the top 8.9% nationally.
Set against the neighboring ZIPs, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In everyday language, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Expected annual loss is FEMA's modeled estimate, in dollars, of average yearly harm to people from natural hazards. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. A healthier neighbor overall sits at ZIP 76052, 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.

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 0.99 years of 80.1, 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.
