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.

Outpatient-care access

1.1 per 1,000 residents

in the top 1.5% nationally

Higher is healthier

ST98th
US99th
Definition & source ›

The number of outpatient clinics located 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.

Outer-floodplain exposure

Lower is healthier

ST90th
US96th
Definition & source ›

The share of this ZIP’s land area inside FEMA’s 0.2%-annual-chance flood band — the “500-year” zone, a lower but real 1-in-500 yearly chance.

Measured from FEMA’s mapped flood panels. Where a panel has not been mapped, no value is published for that ZIP — those ZIPs are absent from this comparison rather than counted as unexposed.

Housing-cost burden

45.9%

in the top 5.0% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST96th
US95th
Definition & source ›

The share of households spending 30% or more of their income on housing.

Higher is healthier

ST91st
US91st

Lower is healthier

ST83rd
US91st
Definition & source ›

This area’s national rank on its single highest non-flood natural hazard — such as wildfire, tornado, or earthquake — in FEMA’s modeled National Risk Index; flooding is shown separately.

Full methodology ›

PFOA in drinking water

87.7%

in the top 9.6% nationally

Lower is healthier

ST94th
US90th
Definition & source ›

The share of residents served by public water systems where PFOA, one of the man-made “forever chemicals,” was detected in EPA testing.

Measured from EPA records for the public water systems that serve this ZIP. Households on private wells — roughly 30% of the US population — are not covered by this measure, and this figure says nothing about their water.

The read

Judged by its overall standing, ZIP 76132, one of several in Fort Worth, Texas sits in the top 26% healthiest ZIPs nationally (8,214th) and the top 13.5% of Texas (252nd).

continue reading

A balanced showing across the data, with a few readings each side: outpatient rests in the top 1.5% nationally, physicians settles in the top 1.8% nationally, and dental providers lands in the top 2.6% nationally. Distance to an emergency room rests at the national minimum, shared with about 11% of ZIPs. Walkability settles in the top 8.7% nationally. On the other hand, modeled extreme heat lands in the top 3.3% nationally, and homeownership rests in the bottom 3.7% nationally. Outer-floodplain exposure settles in the top 4.3% nationally, and housing-cost burden lands in the top 5.0% nationally. Modeled disaster risk rests in the top 8.8% nationally.

Placed beside its immediate neighbors, outer-floodplain exposure runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. Put plainly, disaster risk is the area's national rank on its highest non-flood peril in FEMA's modeled Risk Index, like wildfire or quake. Extreme heat is a modeled count of days a year reaching a dangerously high temperature, a leading weather hazard. Outer-floodplain exposure is land with a lower but real 1-in-500 chance of flooding each year, nicknamed the "500-year floodplain". A healthier nearby ZIP overall is ZIP 76109, just across the boundary.

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 0.58 years of 78.6, 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.
