On balance, and by the composite measure, Roanoke, Texas (ZIP 76262) ranks in the top 11.8% healthiest ZIPs nationally (3,778th) and the top 6.2% of Texas (115th).
Neither strongly one way nor the other, the measures sit mixed: household income resides in the top 3.8% nationally, and modeled coronary heart disease lands in the bottom 3.3% nationally. Modeled stroke registers in the bottom 3.5% nationally, and hearing disability sits in the bottom 4.5% nationally. Modeled high blood pressure rests in the bottom 5.6% nationally, independent living disability is in the bottom 4.2% nationally, and mobility disability stands in the bottom 5.9% nationally. Against that, modeled disaster risk settles in the top 2.7% nationally, extreme heat lies in the top 3.2% nationally, and expected annual loss resides in the top 4.3% nationally.
Compared with the ZIPs it borders, park land runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plainer terms, 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. For a healthier nearby ZIP overall, look to ZIP 75022, 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

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 0.64 years of 79.8, 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.
